It typically consists of: * a catheter or tube inserted into the subdural, ventricular, or subarachnoid space, * a connection to a sealed collection chamber or reservoir, * and optionally a mechanism for negative pressure (vacuum) or gravity-assisted flow. Drainage systems are essential in managing intracranial hypertension, preventing fluid reaccumulation, and aiding postoperative recovery. drainage_system.txt Last modified: 2025/06/20 14:19by administrador
