| Abstract: |
A post-surgical drainage pouch system (10) for collection of discharge materials from a body opening (12). Drainage pouch system (10) is locationally mounted adjacent and in contiguous contact with an abdominal wall (14) and is aligned with the body opening (12) formed within the patient. System (10) includes a tubular member (16) which is insertable within a resilient planar member (26). A pouch member (32) is insertable through the tubular member (16) and is captured by an annular disk member (36) in a shoulder portion of the tubular member (16). The drainage pouch system (10) is mounted to the user by a body encircling strap (40) which is releasably coupled to the resilient planar member (26). Subsequent to use, the annular disk member (36) is inserted within an open end section (34) of the pouch member (32) and is disposed of with the discharge material captured within the pouch member (32).

What is claimed is:
1. A post-surgical drainage pouch system for collection of discharge materials from a body opening, comprising:
- (a) an extended tubular member having a through opening, said tubular member including a flange secured to an outer wall surface intermediate said extension of said tubular member, said flange having an outer diameter greater than an outer diameter of said tubular member forming a shoulder portion;
- (b) a resilient planar member having a through opening substantially equal to said flange outer diameter, said flange being secured to an inner wall of said resilient planar member through opening;
- (c) a pouch member having an open end section, said open end section being insertable through said tubular member opening; and,
- (d) a resilient annular disk member insertable within said planar member through opening and around said tubular member outer wall surface within said shoulder portion for releasably capturing said pouch open end section between said flange and said resilient annular disk.
