Cinde Dolphin is a four-time cancer survivor who has been through nine surgeries that required post-surgical wound-care drains. The attending nurses provided safety pins for managing the drains, instructing her to use the pins to attach heavy drains to her clothing. Cinde engineered a more effective protocol that resulted in the invention of the KILI Medical Drain Carrier, a simple mesh apron that safely and comfortably suspends drains during recovery. The device is now a standard issue at several prestigious hospitals around the U.S.
A few highlights:
1. Cancer patients should provide feedback to their medical teams. This is a way to be more engaged in the process of building solutions to medical challenges. Is there a void where the care isn't meeting your needs?
2. Caregivers can identify the needs of the patient and shortfalls in care.
3. The KILI Medical Drain Carrier's mesh design made it possible to wear it at all times. Even when bathing!
