Silicone Penrose Drain ID 8 mm

The Penrose Silicone Flat Drain ID 8 mm is used for capillary drainage in post-operative applications. It promotes fluid drainage from surgical incisions and prevents fluid from building up and causing infection and abscess. It can stay up between 3 to 5 days.

The Penrose drain offers the following benefits:

• Enhances patient comfort with its soft and transparent silicone material.
• Prevents collapse and ensures continuous secretion flow, while also preventing incrustations due to inner channels.
• Features a contrast strip running the entire length of the drain, allowing for X-ray detection.                                                                                                

It is available in two lengths: 30 and 50 cm, and has an inner diameter of 8 mm.
Along with the Penrose Silicone Drain for nursing care, Medline offers various other types and sizes of silicone drains.
