ABSTRACT:
A device for irrigating a wound wherein a syringe fitted with a two-way check valve is filled via a short fill stem that is dipped into irrigant contained in a basin and expelled through a discharge port. The use of a basin allows the irrigant to be positioned immediately adjacent the wound to minimize movement and allows the irrigant to be drawn into the syringe with minimal effort and concentration. The short fill stem minimizes pressure drop and allows the irrigant to be drawn into the syringe as quickly as possible.
