Abstract

See full text

This invention relates to fitment systems designed to connect filters, collection pouches and drains to surgical drapes used in high-fluid procedures. The preferred embodiment provides a ring-and-groove fluid-tight seal and a large fitment bore that can accommodate passage of kidney stones, bone and tissue fragments and the like along with blood, urine or irrigation fluid. Sealing is accomplished by the interaction of a slightly oversize ring with a slightly undersize groove around the bore of the fitment.
