An apparatus for supporting an extremity during tissue irrigation and/or debridement and capturing fluid and tissue resulting therefrom includes an extremity-supporting base, a base dam, a ramp, and barrier shroud. The apparatus can be used in tissue irrigation and/or debridement procedures to contain and control drainage of fluid and/or tissue. The apparatus supports and encloses a patient extremity, such as an arm or a leg. The base has a length, proximal end (i.e., nearest the patient's body), and distal end (i.e., farthest from the patient's body). The shroud has a top portion, bottom portion, and shroud drainage opening. A method includes irrigating and/or debriding tissue from a patient extremity while supported by the base and at least partially enclosed within the barrier shroud, which acts as a shield for fluid and tissue emanating from the extremity. Fluid and/or tissue exits the shroud through a shroud drainage opening. |
