Patient experiences
The nursing staff from the oncology outpatient clinic helped me and my partner with the first drainages. The company provided me with good documentation on how to perform the drains and change the dressings at home, which is why we can now easily do the drains ourselves as required.

ewimed Switzerland AG – partner for hospitals and clinics and specialist in medical drainage for pleural effusion or ascites
As a Swiss partner of the medical technology manufacturer ewimed GmbH, Europe’s largest provider in the field of medical drainage, we support hospitals and clinics in the treatment of ascites or pleural effusion. If required, we are present to advise on the implantation of a drainova® catheter or drainova® ArgentiC catheter and then instruct the nursing staff on the wards in the use of our drainage systems.
We are happy to advise hospitals and clinics on the best treatment for patients with ascites or pleural effusion. Our range of medical drainage products extends from catheters to puncture products and the appropriate consumables for intermittent drainage in the hospital or clinic, the patient at home or in the nursing home.
Patients in safe hands – the ewimed service and care concept
Drainage systems are a very good alternative to punctures for the treatment of pleural effusion or ascites, which are particularly painful for patients with recurrent effusion. In a minimally invasive operation, a tunneled permanent catheter is implanted to drain the pleural effusion or ascites. Following instruction from our product specialists, patients are then able to perform the drainage themselves or, if necessary, with the support of family members or nursing staff. With our products, the patient no longer has to go to the hospital or clinic for intermittent drainage and the repeated, painful, therapeutic punctures of the effusions are no longer necessary.
Would you like to spend time with your family and friends? Do you want mobility and flexibility without the need for frequent hospital or clinic stays? Let us help you regain control of your everyday life.
