Gravity drains for pelvic abscesses stop flowing even when properly placed and managed, causing retained fluid and clinical frustration.
Current gravity drainage systems lack active suction or a mechanism to prevent fluid stasis in the tubing, leading to non-functional drains despite correct patient positioning and care.

App Concept
DrainFlow Active
A smart drainage system that combines gravity with intermittent low-pressure suction to prevent fluid stagnation. It automatically adjusts suction based on flow resistance, ensuring continuous drainage without manual intervention. The system includes a sensor that alerts clinicians if flow is compromised.
Key Features
- Intermittent low-pressure suction to maintain flow
- Flow sensor with real-time alerts for occlusion or stasis
- User-friendly interface with clear status indicators
- Battery-powered, portable design for patient mobility
Target Users: Nurses and surgeons in hospitals and clinics managing patients with surgical drains (pelvic abscesses, postoperative collections)
Revenue Model: $150 per unit one-time cost plus $20 per month for disposable tubing sets
