A fluid meter for measuring fluids such as urine includes a connector for connecting and disconnecting a urine collection bag thereto. The fluid meter may also include a connector for connecting and disconnecting the meter from a catheter drain tube. In the preferred embodiment, the urine meter includes a container having an inlet and outlet. A male connector is operatively attached to the container outlet for connecting and disconnecting the container from a female connector attached to the urine collection bag. Similarly, a female connector is operatively attached to the container inlet for connecting and disconnecting the container from a male connector attached to the drain tube. As an additional feature, the female connector of the urine collection bag may be connected directly to the male connector of the drain tube with the urine meter disconnected therefrom.
