Abstract: A device and method for facilitating the collection of urine from incontinent or otherwise impaired individuals via an underwear-integrated urine specimen collection system and method thereof, wherein strategically placed semi-permeable tubing collects and retains urine from the underwear substrate and holds the urine for subsequent transfer and testing, wherein a tube-puncturing delivery member is protectively provided to facilitate the transfer of the collected urine to a sealed urine vacutainer, and wherein a microporous filter is incorporated to prevent the transfer of potential contaminants or otherwise undesirable particles into the testing specimen.
