DRAINS IN SURGERY

Drains in surgery are devices that redirect body fluids within the body cavity. They are classified as active (e.g. redivac) and passive (e.g. corrugated red rubber drain), and can be internal (e.g. VP shunt) or external (e.g. NG tube). Complications include migration, dislodgement, fistula formation, bleeding, retention, blockage, and sepsis.
