These flat drains are made of silicone elastomer that provides its softness and flexibility. The inner lumen ribbing helps keeps the drain from collapsing or clogging. The drain can allow for a continuous drainage flow. Flat drains are used in neurosurgery, plastic surgery, facial and neck surgery, masectomies, and gynecology surgery. The drain's features include the clear, medical grade silicone and the fact that the smooth bonding point between the flat and round section can help alleviate a patient's man during drain removal. These drains are also available with a needle trocar attached.
