  • Publication number: 20240066245
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a device for collecting seepage from below a tracheostomy incision on a patient by providing a pad with a groove running transversely to the flow of the seepage. The groove couples to a suction catheter tube which can apply a constant suction to the area of the groove, removing the seepage before it collects on the skin for too long or contaminates a patient's bed. This both increases patient comfort and reduces workload for nursing staff.
