  • Patent number: 8845608
    Abstract: A holster-style pouch assembly carries a post-surgical fluid drainage system. The assembly includes an adjustable waistband, a pouch and a loop band. The pouch has an upwardly extending flap for at least partially closing off the pouch interior from the exterior environment. The flap has closure mechanisms attachable to and detachable from closure mechanisms disposed on the pouch interior and exterior. The flap extends over the waistband such that the pouch is suspended and secured with fastening mechanisms to the waistband when the flap closure mechanisms and the pouch closure mechanisms are attached. The pouch is capable of containing at least one post-surgical fluid drainage container. In operation, one or more fluid drainage tubes is capable of extending downwardly into the fluid drainage collection container inside the pouch. The fluid drainage tube is securable between the waistband and the loop band when the band closure mechanisms are attached.

  • Patent number: 8808262
    Abstract: A medical bra assembly facilitates post-surgical care for a patient having undergone a breast reconstruction or cosmetic surgical procedure. The medical bra has a cup with an inside surface. The assembly includes (a) an absorptive skirt bandage attachable to a lower portion of the bra cup inside surface for absorbing secreted bodily fluids from a post-surgical patient's surgical incision, (b) a nipple tube bandage for encasing and absorbing secreted bodily fluids from the patient's reconstructed nipple, (c) a half-moon dome bandage interposable between the nipple tube bandage and the bra cup inside surface, which covers and protects the nipple tube bandage adhered to the patient's breast skin, and (d) an areola pad bandage interposable between the patient's breast skin and the bra cup inside surface for absorbing secretions from a re-pigmented tattoo region around the patient's reconstructed nipple when the bra is being worn by the patient.
