Abstract
A combination wound drain and substance-delivery device includes a drain portion and a substance delivery portion. The drain portion and the substance-delivery portion include interior cavities that are separated from one another to prevent fluids and/or materials disposed within the interior cavities from mixing together. Each of the interior cavities includes one or more perforations that allow fluid communication between a wound site and each of the interior cavities. The device further includes a tip coupled to the drain portion that facilitates removal of collected waste from the drain portion. The device may include an attachment mechanism that helps secure the device when placed within a wound site.
