  • Description
  • Fluted Cross Structure: Engineered Against Occlusion

    Conventional drains rely mainly on sidewall holes. When fluid is viscous or contains clots, those holes clog easily. The fluted cross design turns the in-body segment from a single round lumen into four fully open drainage flutes, forming a cruciform channel.

    Key benefits:

    • Stronger anti-clogging performance: multi-channel cross geometry resists blockage by viscous fluid, clots or necrotic tissue better than traditional side holes. Comparative experience in emergency abdominal surgery shows fluted cross-type drains maintain better drainage with less damage and occlusion than ordinary negative-pressure drains.
    • 360° circumferential drainage: four open flutes around the wall drain from all directions, improving efficiency and helping eliminate dead space.
    • Kink and crush resistance: the internal cross support helps keep the tube from collapsing under tissue pressure, preserving a patent pathway.

    Clinical use — from surface to cavity

    Because the fluted cross structure addresses clogging and drainage efficiency, it is widely used where fluid is viscous or prone to clotting.

    • Breast and thyroid surgery: a classic setting for JP-style drains. Postoperative oozing and fat liquefaction risk are high; fluted cross-type catheters help evacuate bloody and viscous fluid and reduce seroma/hematoma. Studies after breast-conserving surgery report benefits in preventing fat liquefaction and improving Grade-A incision healing.
    • Abdominal surgery: in acute abdomen (e.g., peritonitis), anti-clogging advantages are especially useful for draining pus and exudate and supporting infection control.
    • Thoracic surgery: after VATS lobectomy, fluted cross-type catheters may be used with larger chest tubes to optimize drainage.
    • Other specialties: dedicated fluted cross-type pancreaticobiliary drains are used after pancreatoduodenectomy to evacuate pancreatic and biliary fluid and help prevent fistula.

Our company's entire product line is based on the production of 10,000-level purification workshop, the implementation of ISO 13485 quality system, the integration of clinical feedback continuous iteration. Through the three-dimensional upgrade of "material modification, structural innovation and scene adaptation", we can accurately solve the pain points of catheter slippage, drainage blockage, surgical trauma and other industries, and help medical institutions improve treatment efficiency and patient safety.
