Medical interventions always use equipment and tools for performing procedures and to ensure fast recovery for the patients. These equipment are used to save lives and to make the procedure easy and safe for both the patient and the surgeon. Clinical procedures need to be really done carefully and effectively because lives rely on these.
Different surgeries or simple examinations and tests need tools as well to ensure accuracy and dependability of results. Surgical drain management systems are needed to help drain fluids and decompress excess air in the part where the surgery is done. This system has certain benefits and drawbacks.
Some of the examples include the prevention of fluid accumulation like pus, blood, fluids, and dead space or air and characterization of fluid especially if there is a detection of anastomotic leakage. This can be done in operations like plastic surgery, orthopedic procedures, chest drainage process, neurosurgery, cyst operations, catheters, and many others. The application and insertion of such drainages is done carefully by a clinical professional.
The system could be silastic or rubber, closed or open, and active or passive. Silastics are very inert and rubbers contain tracts. Closed systems use bottles while open systems use stoma bags. Finally, active drains have suction pressures controlled at high or low depending on what is required and passive relies on the pressure of the body.
The system is removed only when it reaches around twenty five milliliters per day. Also, it can be totally removed by the time the wound heals. But it is also necessary to take out two centimeters a day of the drain. This gradual removal will be until they are sure that the wound will no longer cause infections. But the postoperative areas take longer which is about a week before removal.
Palliative care means being able to assist a patient with utmost care not only for the physical but also the emotional and psychological wellbeing of the patient. This is very applicable in all types of systems and procedures. That is why they need to be careful and consider the patient when removing the tubes out of the part where the operation took place.
If the removal is not done within the required time, it could be difficult to remove. That is why there is a need to gradually remove some of the tubes. On the other hand, if the removal is done at an earlier stage even if the wound has not been totally healed, there could be infection risks.
This should not be used in operations like gastrointestinal operations. It is safer without using the systems. Otherwise, it can damage the parts because of too much mechanical pressure. There are certain guidelines that professionals need to follow regarding the use of drains.
Many lives depend on these medical operations. If there are errors in the process, it could cause deadly infections. Thus, medical practitioners have to be really true to their vows of saving lives. Palliative care should be performed.
