The SINAPI Chest Drain is used for:

post operative and trauma situations.

BED RIDDEN PATIENTS (Gravity Drainage)

Allow gravity drainage by hanging the device next to bed, lower than the chest.

moving/turning the patients you may place the device on its back on the bed – as long as the liquid in the reservoir remains less than the maximum volume indications. Hang next to the bed when unattended. Fig (2)

MANUALLY INCREASING THE DRAINAGE RATE

Increase the drainage rate by depressing the bulb unit until the bulb stays depress Fig (3) If the bulb re-expands, pinch the tubing above the valve and then depress the bulb. Release both. Repeat the process unit until the bulb stays depresses (up to 30x). This applies suction and increase the

-rax will remain and the bulb will not stay depress- attach external suction if required by physician.

ATTACHING LOW PRESSURE SUCTION

If the bulb does not stay depress attach suction as indicated. Keep the drainage tap closed when suction is applied. The recommended suction pressure is -20cmH20 pressure.

DETECTING BUBBLING/AIR LEAK

Depress the bulb. If it stays depress there is no air leak. If it re-expands, add 25ml clean water into the air vent tubing. Look for bubbling or water level movement. Bubbling or water level movement =air leak. Fig (5)

MAINTENANCE

- Liquid might accumulate in the tube above the valve. This is normal and an indication of negative pressure above the valve.- During outpatient management, secure the chest catheter with additional plaster closer to the reservoir to prevent dislodgment of the catheter.- Replace the device after 7 days.
