Prody™ Drainage Bulb Holder II
The Prody™ Drainage Bulb Holder II, with new improved, easy grip fasteners, was developed and designed by a Registered Nurse after working with patients and repeatedly experiencing the frustrations and complications related to securement of the drains. Because the Drainage Bulb Holder II was designed by a nurse, it addresses not only the clinical needs for a securement system that maximizes drain function, but also promotes patient comfort and decreases post-surgical stress. This will improve the quality of life while maximizing drain function and preventing complications.

Consider ordering the kit which includes two belts.)
