Cohen Attorney, Agent, or Firm-Townsend and Townsend [57] ABSTRACT A hanger for supporting a continuous drain unit including a relatively long drainage tube connected at one end with a bag or receptacle, and at the other end with a catheter connected with a patient seated on a chair. The hanger is adapted to support the tube and receptacle on the back of the chair with the tube and receptacle at levels that will insure against injury to such patient due to inadequate drainage from the catheter to the receptacle and which will support the long tube and the receptacle in a position behind the chair and spaced above the floor with the tube compactly arranged to prevent accidental interruption of drainage from distortion of the tube by kinking or 10- calized pressure against the tube, such as from the wheels of a wheel chair when the patient is seated in such chair, or by a heavy object falling on the tube.
3 Claims, 6 Drawing Figures SUPPORT FOR A CONTINUOUS DRAIN UNIT CONNECTED WITH A CATHETER SUMMARY Patients suffering from what is pathologically described as incontinence, or the inability'to control the natural evacuation of urine, are normally fitted with catheters, such as for example a Foley catheter which is connected by a tube with a drainage bag. These tubes are normally approximately three-eighthsof an inch in diameter and four feet in length to provide for continuous drainage when the patient is in'bed.
When the patient is moved to a'wheel chair or other chair, thetube is disconnected from the catheter and then re-connected when the patient is seated. and the same procedure is followed in returning the patient to the bed.
Heretofore, no provision has been made for properly supporting the four foot length of tube and the drainage bag from the chair to insure continuous, unimpeded drainage of urine. As a result, there is imminent danger from infection due to back up of urine in the bladder from kinked tubing, or due to a restriction from pressure of a wheel of the wheel chair, or from many other accidental-occurrences that have occurred in thepast.
One of the objects of the present invention is the provision of a hanger for the tube and bag of a continuous drainage system of the type for bed patients that is adapted to be quickly and compactly supported on the chair in which the patient may be seated, with the bag, and the drainage tube connecting it with a catheter in the patient, in a position to insure continuous, uninterrupted drainage, and in which position the tube is safely supported against kinking and accidental distortion that might in any way impede free drainage.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a hanger on which the relatively long drainage tube and receptacle in a-continuous drainage system may be supported during removal of the patient from a bed to a chair, and vice versa, and which hanger is adapted to be quickly suspended from the back of such chair with the tube and receptacle supported thereon in continuous drainage relative to the catheter connected with the patient when the latter is seated in the chair.
An added object of the invention is the combination of a wheel chair and a continuous drainage unit in which the latter is supported safely out of danger against interruption 'of drainage and substantiallyout of sight, when the unit is connected with a patient seated DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a rear view of the hanger, separate from a chair and from the continuous drain unit.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The .continuous drain unit itself is conventional. The hanger for said unit comprises a vertically elongated member generally designated 1, having an upper portion 2 and a lower portion. The upper portion may be of channel shape in horizontal cross-sectional contour (FIG. 5) with the lower portion being a strip 3 slidably fitted between the sides of the channel for longitudinal movement of the channel and strip relative to each other so the member I may be extended or retracted to suit conditions, as will later be explained. A retainer piece 4 may be secured to the sides of the channel 2 adjacent the lower end and extend across strip 3, to stabilize the two strips in any degree of extension or retraction of the'member. In FIGS. 1, 2 the member I is at its minimum extension. I The bottom ofchannel 2 is formed with a slot extending longitudinally thereof, and a releasable clasping nut 6, such as a wing nut, is on a bolt 7 that extends through slot and an opening in strip 3. A head on bolt 7 engages the bottom of channel 2 while the nut 6 engages the strip 3 for releasably locking the upper and lower portions of member 1 at the desirable degree of extension.
Hereafter, the words rear, rearwardly, forward, forwardly and words of similar meaning will be used with reference to the back of a chair. The hanger of this invention is suspended from the upper edge or portion of the back of the chair in a position bevertically extending leg 14 that is in opposed relation to the side of leg 10 that faces away from channel 2, while the other leg of angle plate 13 extends over and in opposed relation to leg 12 of angle plate 11.
A clamping bolt 17 extends through slot 16 and an wing nut 18 with the back 20 of a chair, generally designated 21 between the legs 10, 14. The legs 12, 15 will extend rearwardly while leg 14 will be flat against the forward surface of the back 20 and the member 1 will extend downwardly behind back 20.
A plate 25 is centrally rigidly secured against the rear side of the lower end portion of the strip 3 of the member 1, so as to face rearwardly away from the chair 21. Said plate 25 is generally rectangular having vertical lateral free edges.
Upwardly opening spring clips 26, 27, 28, 29 rigidly secured on plate 25 project rearwardly therefrom, each being adapted to yieldably grip the flexible, plastic drainage tube 30 (FIG. 4) of a continuous drainage unit.
The outside diameter of tube 30 is normally threeeighths of an inch, and of sufficient rigidity that the tube may be readily sprung through the open side of each clip into the clip to be frictionally held by the clip. each clip being a flat annularly extending spring band adapted to extend partially around the tube with one free end bent outwardly to facilitate springing the tube through the open side of the clip.
The receptacle of a continuous drainage unit is normally a somewhat flattened bag 32 having an upper edge or side provided with a cord 31 connected at the ends with the upper side of the bag at spaced points along the latter to provide a loop for suspending the bag from a point above the latter.
An upwardly opening hook 33 is secured on strip 2 at a point spaced above plate 25 a sufficient distance to suspend the bag 32 therefrom in a position below said plate, the hanging loop 31 also being ofa length to so position the bag when the latter is suspended from the hook.
As already mentioned the tube 30 is relatively long to provide for constant drainage when the patient is in bed.
Upon moving the patient from the bed to a chair 21, which may be a wheel chair or an ordinary chair, the tube 30 may be disconnected from the catheter and the bag 32 hung from hook 33 and the tube 30 reconnected with the catheter and the length of the tube between the catheter and the bag secured by the clips 26 29 in the form of a return bend with one portion 36 (FIG. 3) extending from the catheter across the forward edge of seat 37 and then rearwardly and downwardly to clip 26. From clip 26 the tube extends slightly downwardly across the rear face of plate 25 to clip 27, and to a return bend 38 and downwardly to clip 28, and down-. wardly across the plate 25 to clip 29, and from clip 29 downwardly to fitting 34 on bag 32.
By this arrangement the continuous discharge unit and the chair and patient on the latter are positioned relative to each other to be moved as a unit to different positions, particularly if the chair is a wheel chair. The extra length of tubing and bag are supported above the floor and close to the chair at the rear side of the latter in a position where the tube is safe from being stepped on or run over by the wheels of the chair. Also, the tube cannot become accidentally kinked through shifting it around, and it is supported in an inconspicuous position.
