So you are trying to defeat the purpose of a disposable bag?? What are the risks to you and others if you don't disinfect the bag properly, even though you follow all of the necessary steps? Do your disposable bags have valves for you to turn off and on? Does your disposable bags have check valves? What would be your purpose for saving those disposable bags? Yes, its easy to recommend a good cleaning and soaking in warm bleach waters, but its not that easy and requires that it be properly dried to prevent bacteria from colonizing while you are waiting to use it again.

So far, I've never reused urinary bags. I had a super pubic catheter, and we have just been throwing away the used urinary bags every two weeks or so. But we are just about out of bags. Is it possible to flush them out and use them again? What's the best way? Thanks, Dave Krehbiel
