Description
The QiVi® Male External Urine Management Device from Medline provides a non-invasive approach to male urinary output management designed to support accurate urine collection while avoiding urethral insertion associated with indwelling urinary catheters.
Engineered for patient comfort and secure positioning, QiVi incorporates a soft, flexible silicone design, hydrophobic collection pouch, dermal-friendly adhesive system, and integrated suction connection. Its one-size-fits-all configuration can be positioned in supine, lateral, seated, and other common patient positions, making it suitable for a wide range of acute-care and clinical workflows.
The external design may help reduce exposure to complications associated with internal urinary catheterization while supporting skin management and efficient urine diversion.

Urine Management Design
The QiVi system uses an external collection interface rather than an indwelling urethral catheter. The hydrophobic pouch is designed to direct urine toward the suction outlet while reducing prolonged moisture contact with the surrounding skin.
The flexible construction accommodates different patient positions while the adhesive backing helps maintain device placement during use.
Infection-Control & Skin-Care Considerations
By avoiding urethral insertion, an external urine management system may be considered when clinicians are seeking alternatives to indwelling urinary catheterization. Appropriate device selection, skin assessment, placement, monitoring, suction settings, replacement intervals, and infection-control practices should follow the manufacturer's instructions and the healthcare facility's clinical protocols.

Important Clinical Notice
This product should be selected and used according to the manufacturer's instructions for use and applicable institutional protocols. Patient anatomy, skin condition, mobility, urine output, contraindications, and clinical condition should be assessed before and during use.
Do not substitute this device for an indwelling urinary catheter where urinary catheterization is medically required.
