Wound drainage

Sur­gi­cal wound drainage is a fre­quent­ly used pro­ce­dure aimed at incis­ing an abscess to pre­vent fur­ther spread of infec­tion. The drain removes puru­lent mate­r­i­al and is removed once flu­id secre­tion stops. The wound drainage process, includ­ing the use of drains, is cru­cial in pre­vent­ing pre­ma­ture wound clo­sure. Laparoscopy is also used for abscess drainage in the abdom­i­nal cav­i­ty. The qual­i­ty of drains, the mate­ri­als they are made from, and their fea­tures (such as the abil­i­ty to trim drains to the sur­geon’s needs) affect the effec­tive­ness of drainage and pre­vent the for­ma­tion of abnor­mal tis­sue tun­nels. The pres­ence of an abscess can­not be under­es­ti­mat­ed due to the risk of seri­ous com­pli­ca­tions. Abscess­es can occur both in super­fi­cial tis­sues and with­in inter­nal organs. Sur­gi­cal drains also help pre­vent the for­ma­tion of fis­tu­las. Skamex offers a wide range of sur­gi­cal drainage prod­ucts, includ­ing low-pres­sure sets with var­i­ous capac­i­ties and usage times, as well as grav­i­ty drainage sets. The deci­sion to intro­duce a drain should be based on the patien­t’s over­all health and the type of planned pro­ce­dure. An abscess is an expres­sion of puru­lent inflam­ma­tion, which can lead to seri­ous com­pli­ca­tions. Inci­sion and drainage pro­ce­dures are designed to pre­vent the fur­ther spread of infec­tion.

Mediplast drainage sets are very easy to use. They do not require expen­sive equip­ment or spe­cial­ly trained per­son­nel. The anti-reflux valves, both at the inlet and out­let of the bel­lows, min­i­mize han­dling issues, there­by reduc­ing the time need­ed for drain main­te­nance.

The risks asso­ci­at­ed with homol­o­gous blood trans­fu­sions are well known. Donat­ed blood is often in short sup­ply, and avail­able blood reserves should be reserved for emer­gen­cies and sit­u­a­tions where no alter­na­tives are avail­able. The use of autol­o­gous blood is applic­a­ble in pre­do­na­tion, hemod­i­lu­tion, intra­op­er­a­tive auto­trans­fu­sion, and post­op­er­a­tive auto­trans­fu­sion.
