Abstract: Method for preventing biofilm formation on at least one luminal surface of a catheter system (1). The catheter system (1) comprises a collection vessel (4) and a tube (3) coupled to the collection vessel (4). The catheter system (1) comprises a catheter connector (2, 20, 200) coupled to the tube (3) and connectable to a catheter (6). The method comprises the consecutive steps of connecting the catheter connector (2, 20, 200) to the catheter (6) and supplying a silicon oil to an interior (25, 205) of the catheter connector. A catheter assembly comprising a catheter connector (20) comprising a port (24) providing access to the interior (25) of the connector and a dispensing unit (50) containing a silicon oil. A catheter connector (200) comprising a reservoir (207) containing a silicon oil and a releasing mechanism (208) releasing the silicone oil into the interior (205) of the connector.

Abstract: A urine handling system capsule for releasing an oil mixture in the lumen of a urine handling system, the capsule comprising a capsule wall defining a space filled with an oil mixture, wherein the oil mixture comprises 90-100% of an oil selected from the group consisting of silicone fluids and mineral oils or a mixture thereof, and having a viscosity of at most 600 cSt, and wherein the capsule wall is made of a water-soluble material. A urine measurement system comprising an oil mixture arranged in the luminal space of the measurement system. A method for inhibiting impairment of functionality and measurement accuracy in a urine measurement system comprising applying an oil mixture to the inner surfaces of the urine measurement system. Use of an oil mixture in treatment of luminal surfaces of a urine handling system.

Abstract: A device for measuring of urine production of a patient carrying a urine catheter, the device comprising a replaceable self-emptying chamber (120), provided with a siphon for self emptying when the burette becomes filled up to a predetermined volume, the self-emptying chamber further comprises an inlet and an outlet for the urine whose volume is to be measured, further, the device comprises a base unit (105) provided with attachment organs for removably attaching the self-emptying chamber (120) to the base unit, which station having measurement organs for sensing the level of urine in the self-emptying chamber and for keeping track of number of self-emptyings.

Abstract: Method for automatically, with the aid of a processor, determining a surface degeneration of a first surface of a urine handling system, the first surface being intended to come into contact with urine, the method comprises the following main steps: a) repeatedly measuring one or more capacitive values of the first surface, forming capacitive measurements; b) storing all, or representative instants of the capacitive measurements; c) deciding, based on changes of the stored capacitive measurements, that a significant surface degeneration of the first surface has occurred.

Abstract: Method for sterilizing a body fluid drainage system for handling a body fluid ex vivo. The body fluid drainage system comprises a chamber. The method comprises the steps providing a container containing a surface protective fluid to be released into the chamber of the body fluid drainage system, subjecting the container to radiation sterilization, inserting the container into the chamber of the body fluid drainage system, and subjecting the chamber containing the container to gas sterilization. A body fluid drainage system for handling a body fluid ex vivo. The body fluid drainage system comprises a chamber. The body fluid drainage system further comprises a container containing a surface protective fluid. The container is arranged to release the surface protective fluid into the chamber. The surface protective fluid is sterilized by radiation sterilization. An outer surface of the container and at least the chamber of the body fluid drainage system is sterilized by gas sterilization.
