ABSTRACT:
A multipurpose collection vessel includes a closed vessel with suction-regulating and chamber isolating components, and a collection chamber for receiving blood through a tube connected to a wand or surgical drain. The collection chamber is split into a filtered reinfusion chamber with volumetric graduations of several milliliters over a two hundred milliliter range, and a separate unfiltered chamber, for a combined volume of several liters. The collection vessel may perform all conventional functions of a pediatric drain, reinfusion vessel, cardiotomy bucket, general wound drainage device, or multi-site drainage device. This simplifies hospital inventory requirements and reduces the need for device-specific training of hospital ward personnel.
