POPPA for Catheter Waste 600 ml is a user-friendly, hygienic and safe solution for emptying catheter bags and disposing of catheter waste. Ideal for nurses and care staff during routine care — at the bedside, during rounds, or at night. Its compact, flatpack design allows for easy bedside storage and ready to use in one simple move.

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. This is an IB Category recommendation. CDC defines an "IB" level of evidence in its infection-control guidelines as follows:

• The "I" indicates this recommendation is strongly endorsed for practice.
• The "B" means it's based on clinical or epidemiologic studies plus a solid theoretical rationale, even if no large randomised trial exists.

• Single-use, pop-up container that remains closed until connection, preserving system integrity.
• 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.
