تعريف

A Jackson-Pratt drain (or JP drain) is a rubber tubing that may be placed after surgery. It may also be used with infections or injury that can cause a build up of fluid.

أسباب هذا الإجراء

Fluid that collects inside the body can increase the chance of infection or other complications. The JP drain allows fluids to move out of the body. The drain may be placed:

  • After surgery if large amounts of drainage are expected
  • To drain fluids from an abscess or other infected areas
  • To drain fluids from injury associated with fluid build up

    • تصوير الرنين المغناطيسي

  • Arrange for a ride home from the hospital.

التخدير

General anesthesia will be used. It will block any pain and keep you asleep through the surgery.

وصف الإجراء

Once you are under anesthesia, your doctor will make an incision in your skin. The end of the drain tubing will be placed into the area where fluid has collected. The other end of the tubing will be connected to the squeeze bulb outside of your body. The doctor will remove the stopper from the bulb, squeeze it to create suction inside the drain system, and replace the stopper. This suction will pull the unwanted fluid out of your body. The doctor will then close the skin over the drain.

If you are having surgery, this JP drain will be inserted at the end of the operation.
