Zusammenfassung:A urine collection device is provided. The urine collection device includes a basin configured to fit a perineal region of a female human subject and to receive urine; a lip attached to the basin and having a contact surface for attachment to the perineal region; a ridge extending into the basin and disposed along an inferior portion of the lip to prevent leakage of urine from the basin; and a drain opening in the basin for draining the urine. The urine collection device advantageously prevents leakage and allows for easy access for urine analysis and measurement of urine output. Methods and systems for collecting and quantifying urine are also provided.
