C
Vocabulary passive movement of fluid through tube
gravity
Vocabulary passive movement of fluid along a solid object
capillary action
Vocabulary used to drain hollow organs such as bladder, may be used as gastrostomy tube, and may be place in large abscess site; connected to drainage bag and drained by gravity
Malecot or Pezzer mushroom-tipped catheter
Vocabulary drains through natural action, but has an increased incidence of infection
Passive/Open
Vocabulary used to drain wound where small to moderate amounts of drainage are expected; has self-contained collecting device and manual suction
Jackson-Pratt
Vocabulary used to drain wound after extensive dissection or where moderate to large amounts of drainage are expected; has self-contained collecting device and manual suction
Hemovac
Vocabulary a gauze dressing is placed over the drain site and acts as the collection device
Penrose drain
Vocabulary used as a Penrose, but gauze allows for “wick” action on accumulated fluid
cigarette drain
Vocabulary inserted after a common bile duct exploration to ensure patency and drainage of the duct during the healing process; connects to a bile bag and drains by gravity
T-tube
Vocabulary mechanical removal of body fluids
suction
Vocabulary drains into a closed fluid collection reservoir using negative pressure to mechanically remove body fluids
active/closed
Vocabulary fluted, flat tube used to drain fluids from wound and comes in French sizes
Blake drain
Vocabulary drains into a closed fluid collection reservoir through mechanical extraction and is more desirable since there is a decreased incidence of infection
passive/closed
Vocabulary the collection and reinfusion of the patient’s own blood
autologous blood retrieval drainage system

1) air
Vocabulary provides access to the stomach for enteral feeding of patients who are unable to eat normally due to disease process or trauma
Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy tube
Vocabulary single lumen tube used for gastric decompression connected to gravity drainage or intermittent suction
Levine tube
Vocabulary provides prolonged nutritional support following upper gastrointestinal surgery or trauma
Jejunostomy tube
Vocabulary double lumen tube that is used for aspiration, irrigation, or introduction of medication
Sump tube
Vocabulary surgically inserted into the stomach to provide decompression and/or nutrition
gastrostomy tube

odor
Complete the following statement concerning safety precautions for caring for drainage systems and tubes. For Foley catheters, the drainage bag should be positioned _____ the level of the bladder at all times to prevent the backflow of urine and decrease the risk of infection.
below
Complete the following statement concerning safety precautions for caring for drainage systems and tubes. Drains and tubing should be free of _____ and maintained in a secured position to prevent accidental removal.
