This video explains the functioning or functionality of analogue and digital chest drainage systems.
Analogue chest drainage systems work as a single- or multi-chamber system with the help of a water-seal. A traditional chest drainage system even works without active suction. Applying the water-seal principal it is essential to observe the right positioning of the drainage system as well as the immersion depth of the water-seal level tube.
Digital chest drainage systems provide reliable suction independent of positioning and fluid loss thanks to a double lumen tube and sensors. Digital systems are not based on a water-seal. This way they operate almost silently. The integrated pump with active suction control facilitates early mobilisation of patients.
