SOMAVAC SVS is a low-profile, user-friendly, wearable medical device that applies continuous suction at the end of a surgical drain to remove fluid effectively and reduce the risk of seroma or hematoma.

SOMAVAC SVS is designed to replace the legacy technology of using suction bulbs with surgical drains, which has seen little innovation or advancements since the manual devices’ introduction in the 1970s. The old manually operated suction systems, such as Jackson-Pratt (JP) or accordion-style devices, are meant to draw fluid out with the intermittent suction generated by a bulb attached to the end of the drain.

The bulbs often fail to maintain continuous suction which increases opportunities for complications, and the bulbs and other manual devices are fraught with issues such as leakage, clogging and spillage. The SOMAVAC SVS is the only patient-centric, value-based alternative to the suction bulbs used in closed suction drains and can be discretely worn under clothing while helping patients return to normal activities while recovering.
