ABSTRACT:
A pouch having a bottom wall secured to an adhesive layer that can be cut to fit around a wound or surgical opening, gusseted side walls, and a top wall provided with one or more access openings. An irrigation port and a catheter access port can be secured to these top wall openings. The bottom wall extends beyond the adhesive layer and is provided with a large exit port oriented so that gravity will drain wound exudate from the pouch. This exit port is also large enough to accommodate a hand to aid in locating the pouch on the body and permit access to the wound site without removing the pouch from the body.
