Description

The Penrose Drain, 12-inch Latex Sterile X-Ray Detectable, is a flexible surgical drainage device designed to facilitate the removal of blood, lymph, and other fluids from surgical sites. Constructed from high-quality latex, this drain promotes effective post-operative fluid evacuation, reducing the risk of hematoma, seroma, and infection. Its flat channel design ensures maximum surface contact with the wound site, optimizing drainage efficiency through gravity-assisted flow into dressings.

This device features a perforated hole pattern along its length, allowing fluids to pass freely while maintaining structural integrity. The included safety pin secures the drain in place, preventing inadvertent retraction into the wound. Its radiopaque construction ensures visibility under X-ray imaging, providing an added layer of safety during post-operative monitoring.

The 3/8-inch outer diameter and 12-inch length make the Penrose Drain suitable for a range of surgical applications, including general, abdominal, and soft tissue procedures. Sterile packaging ensures the device is ready for immediate use while maintaining infection control standards. Its flexible latex composition conforms easily to the contours of the surgical site, providing patient comfort during drainage.
