Apparat til indsætning af et dræn og et håndtag til et sådant apparat

摘要

A device for inserting a drain (5) into a wound includes a needle (1) and a handle (2) for holding the needle. The needle (1) has a sharp front end (3) and a rear end including a connector (4) for connection to a drain (5) for leading the drain (5) through a perforation in skin tissue made with the needle (1). The handle (2) projects in a longitudinal direction and detachably mountable to a portion (8) of the needle (1) extending in an axial direction. If the handle (2) is in mounted condition, the longitudinal direction in which the handle (2) projects is oriented at an angle (α) to the axial direction of the portion (8) of the needle (1) to which the handle (2) is mounted, so that operation of the needle (1) is facilitated.
