Abstract

An example fluid collection assembly (100) includes a sheath (102) and a base (104). The sheath includes a fluid impermeable barrier (106) formed from at least a first panel (108) and a second panel (110). The first panel and the second panel at least partially define a chamber (112) therebetween. The fluid impermeable barrier also defines a fluid outlet (118) at a distal end of the sheath and an opening (114) at a proximal end of the sheath. The sheath also includes at least one porous material (122) disposed in the chamber. The base is permanently secured or configured to be permanently secured to the sheath. The base defines an aperture (124) that is aligned with the opening when the base is permanently attached to the sheath. The base is configured to be secured to a region about a penis of an individual with the aperture positioned over the penis.

Dependent claims

A fluid collection assembly, comprising:

a sheath including:
at least one fluid impermeable barrier including a first panel and a second panel, the at least one fluid impermeable barrier defining a chamber at least partially defined by the first panel and the second panel, the at least one fluid impermeable barrier defining an outlet at a distal end of the sheath and an opening at a proximal end of the sheath, the proximal end of the sheath including proximal edges opposite the distal end that are attached together;
and
at least one porous material disposed in the chamber, the at least one porous material including a sheet, the sheet configured to lie flat and extend across the opening when the sheath is resting on a flat surface and a penis is not disposed in the chamber, at least a portion of the at least one porous material is hydrophobic;
a base permanently secured to or configured to be permanently secured to the proximal end of the sheath, the base configured to be attached to skin surrounding a penis, the base defining an aperture that corresponds to the opening of the sheath.
