ABSTRACT:
A self-contained, combined irrigator and evacuator for wounds comprising a container and a resilient inflatable bladder within the container, the container and inflatable bladder having a combined configuration which avoids unnatural deformation of the inflatable bladder by the container in at least one direction of expansion. The bladder is expanded against its bias by filling with an irrigation fluid, the bias causing pumping of the fluid from the bladder to the patient for wound irrigation while simultaneously effecting a negative pressure in the container for evacuation of fluid from the wound site and collection of the evacuated fluid in the container.
