At night single use 2 litre bags should be attached to the bottom of the leg bag rather than drainable bags. The single use bags do not have any cost implications, when compared against drainable 2 litre bags but are recommended by infection control for use by all patients that have indwelling urinary catheters and require added drainage capacity overnight.
