MiroValve, The automatic urine catheter valve

1. Simple Usage

The MiroValve®-catheter valve can be simply operated with one hand. The valve can be easily opened with the slide. Then the bladder can be emptied; to do so, hold one end of the valve above the toilet pan and pull the slide. Further information about the handling can be found in the patient’s info which is enclosed to every valve. The ergonomically formed slide is suitable for left- and righthanders. The catheter slide is very easy to operate and requires no physical strength. Simply pull it with your thumb in your direction and the valve will open immediately. Urine can drain off easily and fast. Let the slide go and the valve closes on its own… done. The slide has a skid resistant structured surface, which makes it easy to hold and safe to operate.

2. Innovative Technology

You can go to bed without worrying about anything: Simply plug the connector of the urine bag into the blue end of the valve. You do not have to turn, press or unlock anything, since an automatic open mechanism is built in the MiroValve® catheter valve. The valve opens automatically when you connect the urine bag to the valve – you do not have to operate the slide! During the night, while you are sleeping, MiroValve® stays open and the urine simply drains off into the urine bag. There is of course an automatic stop mechanism incorporated as well. As soon as you pull the urine bag off the valve it immediately closes automatically. Again without operating the slide, other buttons, locks or anything else. Simply pull off the urine bag: No urine drips onto the floor. Thereby the valve guarantees maximum hygiene for patients as well as the nursing staff. The valve with its modern locking system is patented. The innovative technology is »Made in Germany« and was developed by MiroMed. You find more information, concerning the usage of the valve (for example the nightly usage), in the illustrated patient’s info which is enclosed to every single valve.

3- Modern

Thanks to the new Mirovalve® all the former catheter stoppers become completely superfluous. No stopper is required anymore since, while pulling off the urine bag, the automatic stopp ends the urine flow. There is a zero chance to dirty bed or clothes with urine and smell is avoided. The rate of infection through uncleanly stored catheter stoppers is clearly reduced. There is also no need to search for the stopper.
Simply spray the MiroValve® valve with a medical disinfectant to reduce the risk of infection to a minimum.
