Available in capacity sizes of
1000ML, 500ML and 300ML
Sizes with drain port include the
TCS300D and the TCS500D
All have 25” silicone drain tube which can be adjusted in length by cutting the tube at the point where it connects to the bag and then re-attaching
Vacuum level for the TCS300D is 4.5 psi (230 mm Hg)
Vacuum level for the TCS500,
TCS1000 and TCS500D is 2 psi
(103 mm hg)
The AFA-01 Flush Adapter is sold separately and is to be used when flushing of the catheter is required
It has a tube clamp for injection or aspiration of the catheter and to prevent solution from refluxing
The needleless, swabable port allows for injection of flushing solutions and aspiration
The device comes with a standard
Luer Lock fitting and a large bore adapter for the ULTI-flo system
To attach the Flush Adapter (AFA-
01) remove the Luer Lock connector from the bag tubing and replace it with the tapered connector on the end of AFA-01
Designed for “closed wound drainage”
Equipped with a standard Luer
Lock connector to fit all brands of percutaneous drainage catheters
If catheter is to be flushed it is recommended that a stopcock or the UreSil Flush Adapter (AFA-01) be attached to the distal end of the tubing prior to hooking the bag to the catheter
Vacuum is activated by compressing the bellows at the top of the bag
When the bellows is released the fluid will fill the bellows
To reactivate the vacuum depress the bellows
The fluid in the bellows will be forced into the bag
Dual anti-reflux valves prevent fluid from going up the tubing and back into the catheter
The TCS bags will revert to gravity flow if the bellows is full; for gravity drain ensure the bag is below the level of the point being drained
Two vents at the top of the bag will prevent air buildup in the bag; you do not have to force air from the bag
Only the TCS500D and TCS300D can be emptied without detaching the bag from the catheter
To maintain the integrity of the closed system ensure an appropriate flushing apparatus (stopcock or AFA-01) is in place prior to attaching the tube to a catheter
Attach the bag to the patient’s garment using the clamp secured to the Velcro strap at the top of the bellows housing
Do not attach the unit to the drop rail on the bed, attach it to the bedding
Instruct the patient on the operation of the
TCS so they activate the bellows as needed
Drainage and critical measurements
(marks on the bag are for reference only) can be taken from the drain port without disturbing the patient; close the drain after use
The TCS1000 and TCS500 cannot be drained
