The drainage system is composed of a silicone reservoir equipped with an anti-backflow valve and one or two connectors, and a drainage tube. The drainage is characterized by a section equipped with drainage grooves, together with a round section portion. The drainage has depth markings, graduated from the end of the perforated section: these markings facilitate accurate positioning of the drainage in the wound. The silicone drainage is biocompatible and hemocompatible (in accordance with the regulations in force). The subject product is compatible for use with gravity or suction drainage systems. The reservoir has a capacity of 100 ml. Thanks to the typical elasticity of silicone, the drainage suction power remains constant until the reservoir is completely full. The drainage system is a sterile and single-use device.
A tube-like, non-bioabsorbable device designed to establish a channel for the removal of fluid or purulent material from a closed-wound or an infected area, typically used with a closed drainage system that applies a low negative pressure through the drain lumen. It is typically made of silicone and comes in various designs/sizes for a variety of surgical applications (e.g., orthopaedic, plastic/reconstructive, neurological, gynaecological, thoracic, cardiovascular, general surgery). It might include disposable devices dedicated to drain insertion/function (e.g., sharp trocar blade, connector), however it does not include any fluid collection bags/containers. This is a single-use device.
