OPTILINE® Thoracic drainage systems
OPTILINE® thoracic drainage systems are classic bottle systems for the application of the tried-and-tested drainage method with underwater seal.
They are used to drain air, blood and secretions from the pleural and mediastinal cavities.
Some of the most common indications for thoeacic drainage are ruptures in the lung surface or in the tracheobronchial area as well as the penetration of the chest wall from outside by trauma or surgical procedure. As a result, air and/or liquids can accumulate in the pleural space or mediastinum and substancially reduce the functioning of lungs and heart.
The OPTILINE® thoracic drainage systems are a reliable, safe and highly efficient aid in the treatment of these indications.
Areas of use:
Tension pneumothorax, Pneumothorax, Haemothorax, Haemopneumothorax, Chylothorax, Thoracic empyema, Postoperatively after thoracic surgery
OPTILINE® Single-bottle set
(Water seal and secretion collection in one bottle (1.000 ml)
Air, secretions or blood are drained off from the chest cavity by gravity drainage or via an external suction source.
A water seal serves as a non-return valve with low resistance, draining off air from the thorax via a riser pipe immersed in water or saline solution. At the same time this seal prevents the return flow of air to the chest cavity during respiration.
A mark on the riser pipe indicates the immersion depth with the optimal resistance of the water column which may be easily readjusted in case of increased liquid accumulation.
Benefits:
- Easy handling
- Transparent bottle design to enable optimal visual check
- Labeling strip to take down control data

OPTILINE® Double-bottle set
(Water seal bottle with lip valve (non-return protection) and a separate secretion collection bottle.)
Air, secretions or blood are drained off from the chest cavity by gravity drainage or via an external suction source.
This system features a separate collecting bottle for liquids which is located upstream the water seal chamber bottle. This bottle collects the drained off liquids while the air from the chest cavity is led to the water seal chamber bottle. Thus, the water column in the water seal bottle can be kept on a constant level regardless of the amount of drained off liquid, and a continuously low resistance towards the pleural or mediastinal cavity is provided.
The lip valve at the end of the riser pipe is an additional protection which prevents the return flow of liquids from the water seal chamber bottle, even during a temporary loss of the water seal (e.g. during recumbent patient transports). The valve is also a fistula indicator (leak indication).
Benefits:
- Constant vacuum in patient without readjustment
- Drained off liquid is separately visible and measurable
- A lip valve at the water seal chamber prevents the return flow of liquids and is also a leak indicator
- Easy handling
- Transparent bottle design to enable optimal visual check
- Labeling strip to take down control data

OPTILINE® Double-bottle set PLUS
(Water seal bottle with lip valve (non-return protection) and a separate secretion collection bottle.)
Air, secretions or blood are drained off from the chest cavity by gravity drainage or via an external suction source.
This system features a separate bottle which collects the drained off liquids while the drained off air is led to the water seal chamber bottle via a short tube with lip valve. Thus, the water column can be kept on a constant level regardless of the amount of drained off liquid, and a continuously low resistance towards the pleural or mediastinal cavity is provided.
The PLUS model also includes a special pressure lock as an additional feature. The water seal chamber bottle is filled with 925 ml sterilised water or saline solution, allowing for a maximum suction of 21 cmH2O, which is equivalent to the maximum immersion depth of the water column. Setting the external suction source higher is compensated for by the opening of the suction control tube. This keeps pressure below the maximum level.
The scaled suction control tube allows the suction intensity to be controlled precisely to meet the patient’s individual needs. The tube also has a backflow stop to prevent the spouting of fluid from the water seal chamber bottle if there is a temporary surge in pressure (e.g. coughing).
With the PLUS model, the tube connecting to the secretion collection tank also has a lip valve to prevent backflow and serve as a fistula indicator.
Benefits:
- Constant vacuum in patient without readjustment
- Suction regulation for pressure control (exceeding of determined max. pressure excluded)
- Drained off liquid is separately visible and measurable
- A lip valve at the water seal chamber prevents the return flow of liquids and is also a leak indicator
- Easy handling
- Transparent bottle design to enable optimal visual check
- Labeling strip to take down control data
