Deployable fluid collection bag and method of forming the same

A method of forming a deployable fluid collection bag, the method comprising the steps of:

• providing a first sheet of plastic material including a first edge and an opposing second edge, the first panel defining a base region, a first sidewall region, and a second sidewall region, the first and second edges both being collectively defined by the base region, the first sidewall region and the second sidewall region;
• providing a second sheet of plastic material having a second panel peripheral edge;
• providing a third sheet of plastic material having a third panel peripheral edge;
• connecting the second panel peripheral edge to the first edge of the first sheet to define a fluid-tight seam between the second panel and the first sidewall region, the second sidewall region and the base region;
• and
• connecting the third panel peripheral edge to the second edge of the first sheet to define a fluid-tight seam between the third panel and the first sidewall region, the second sidewall region and the base region.

A deployable fluid collection bag comprising:

• a first panel having a pair of apertures formed therein adjacent opposing end portions thereof to define a pair of handles;
• a second panel having a second panel peripheral edge coupled to the first panel to define a fluid tight seam between the first panel and the second panel;
• and
• a third panel having a third panel peripheral edge coupled to the first panel in opposed spaced relation to the second panel to define a fluid tight seam between the first panel and the third panel.
