ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a female external catheter which includes an intralabial flange with an adhesive body on one side and an outwardly extending urinary tube on the other side. The adhesive body is adapted to adhere to and seal with the tissue of the vestibule of a female patient around the urethral meatus and vaginal introitus and occlude the introitus. The urinary tube has a bore that extends through the flange and adhesive body to surround the urethral meatus and isolate it from the introitus. A vent is provided for venting the vagina.
