ABSTRACT:
An improved disposable container is provided for the collection and testing of bodily fluid samples, such as urine specimens. The improved container includes a collection bag sealably attached to a tubular member equipped with a lower valve means. A protective sleeve surrounds the collection bag and protects both the patient's hands as well as the medical technician's hands during transport and handling of the container once the specimen is deposited therein. The tubular member preferably includes an upper closure means with an access hole disposed therein. After the specimen is disposed through the tubular member and into the collection bag, the closure means disposed on top of the tubular member is closed and a test strip is deposited through the access means. Then, the sleeve is flipped upward and the open end of the sleeve is closed or sealed thereby closing the disposable container and sealably containing the specimen therein. The test strip and specimen may then be examined through the clear collection bag.
