Penrose drains are essential medical devices used in surgical and wound care settings to facilitate drainage of fluids, pus, or blood from wounds or surgical sites. At LAC Health, our Penrose Drain category includes a range of sterile, medical-grade products designed for hospitals, surgical centers, clinics, long-term care facilities, and home health environments. These drains are typically made from soft, flexible latex or silicone materials that allow for gentle insertion and removal, minimizing tissue trauma.
Key features of our Penrose drains include various sizes ranging from 1/4 inch to 1 inch in diameter and lengths up to 36 inches, ensuring compatibility with different wound depths and drainage needs. They are packaged in sterile conditions to prevent contamination and feature radiopaque strips for easy X-ray visualization. Clinically, Penrose drains are employed in procedures such as abscess drainage, orthopedic surgeries, and post-operative wound management to promote healing by reducing pressure and infection risk.
All products in this category comply with stringent regulatory standards, including FDA clearance, ISO 13485 certification, CE marking, and ASTM specifications, guaranteeing safety and efficacy for medical use. We prioritize quality assurance, with each drain undergoing rigorous testing for sterility, material integrity, and performance.
Selecting the right Penrose drain involves considering factors like wound size, drainage volume, and patient sensitivity. Our sizing guides provide detailed charts to match the appropriate diameter and length, while material choices include latex-free options for patients with allergies. For bulk ordering, LAC Health offers significant volume discounts, minimum order quantities (MOQs) starting at 50 units, and contract pricing for recurring purchases, making it cost-effective for large-scale medical facilities.
Technical documentation is readily available, including Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for handling and disposal, Instructions for Use (IFU) for proper application, and certificates of compliance. We ensure fast shipping with options for expedited delivery to meet urgent clinical needs, and our customer support team assists with custom orders or consultations.
Whether you’re a hospital procurement manager, clinic administrator, or home care provider, our Penrose drains deliver reliable performance backed by compliance and affordability. Explore our selection today to enhance your wound care protocols.
