US Patent 10441251 Drainage system for wounds

A fluid drainage system is provided which is configured to engage with a drainage tube engaged with a drainage site with a patient. The container has an internal cavity with negative pressure to impart suction to the drainage tube and can be engaged to the drainage tube without loss of negative pressure during the process. Secondary containers may be engaged to restore negative pressure to the first container and remove fluid therefrom. Walls of the first container may be shaped to resist deflection due to high internal negative pressure.
