Wound Drains and Medical Drainage
Medical drains are used to remove pathological or excess fluids, blood and gases from the body. Drainage can have both therapeutic and prophylactic purposes, for example relieving the accumulation of air or wound secretions and helping to prevent postoperative fluid build-up. In wound care, effective drainage can help prevent the formation of haematomas, seromas and infected fluid collections and support uncomplicated wound healing, particularly following surgical procedures.
Different Types of Medical Drains
Different drainage systems, wound drains and drainage bags are available depending on the indication and the type and quantity of fluid to be removed. Medical drains can generally be divided into internal and external drainage systems. External drains use a sterile tube to transport fluids from the body to an external collection system and are widely used in postoperative and wound care.
External drainage is particularly important for postoperative wound care and the management of certain chronic wounds. By allowing wound secretions and other body fluids to drain away, wound drains can help prevent fluid accumulation and support the healing process.
Robinson Drain
Gravity drains without suction effect, such as the Robinson drain, are used in thoratic surgery already during the surgical intervention. With this closed system, it is not necessary to change the bag because the sterile tube is perforated and absorbs the secretion. The wound secretion is then emptied via a special drainage nozzle.
