Aspiration of Fluid in Semi-Sealed Chamber
Output Details
Description
This protocol outlines the standard procedures for post-operative maintenance of implanted electrode chambers, focusing on fluid aspiration and contamination prevention to reduce the risk of infection. Fluid buildup within the chamber cavity can lead to leakage through guide tubes and increase the risk of bacterial contamination. Routine aspiration and cleaning are crucial for maintaining asepsis and preventing serious complications, such as meningitis.
