Low pressure selection 

The use of low-pressure drains has many advantages, such as: 

• Efficient suction¹ 
• Reduced blood loss² 
• Better drainage collection³ 
• Earlier removal of drains⁴ 
• Less tissue aspiration⁵ 

In cases where too much pressure is applied, tissues and small vessels may be sucked into the drains, leading to excessive blood loss and increased patient discomfort. Mediplast's low-pressure sets provide effective drainage with fewer issues.⁶
