POPPA complies with CDC Guidelines
POPPA Catheter Waste is the right solution for healthcare facilities that want to comply with the relevant catheter waste guidelines, like the CDC.

The CDC, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, recommend to empty the collecting bag regularly using a separate, clean collecting container for each patient; avoid splashing, and prevent contact of the drainage spigot with the nonsterile collecting container.
POPPA Catheter Waste meets CDC’s strong (IB) recommendations on maintaining a closed system, preventing contamination, and using separate, clean containers during drainage.
Distinct POPPA features relevant to the CDC recommended criteria are:
- Single-use, pop-up container that remains closed until connection, preserving system integrity.
- Its Flat pack single-use design allows healthcare facilities to store it in the dedicated clean utility area or next to the patient bedside as desired.
- Designed to fit the catheter spigot, minimizing splashes and spigot-to-container contact risks.
- Provides a dedicated collection device per patient, minimising cross-contamination risks.
- Disposal follows facility waste protocols.
- QR-linked instructional video and printed directions reinforce compliance during use.
