FLUID COLLECTION DEVICES HAVING A SUMP BETWEEN A TUBE OPENING AND A BARRIER, AND RELATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS

Abstract: examples relate to fluid collection devices, and related systems and methods. a fluid collection device includes a fluid impermeable barrier, a fluid permeable body, a tube, and a sump. the fluid impermeable barrier has a distal end region and defines an opening and a chamber in fluid communication with the opening. the fluid permeable body is positioned within the chamber at least partially at the distal end region. the tube extends into the chamber and has an end positioned proximate to the distal end region of the fluid impermeable barrier. the tube includes a tube opening at least proximate to the end of the tube and oriented to face at least a portion of the fluid permeable body. the sump is positioned in the area between the tube opening and the distal end region.
