    Abstract: The invention provides a device (30) for aspiration and/or irrigation of a wound of a patient. The device has a hollow body (32) made of polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, or Silastic™ with at least a wound facing side (34) having perforations (36). The device (30) has one or two ports (38), (40) for fluid flow into and out of the body i.e. to or from the wound. Each port has a tubing connector for connection to a liquid supply for irrigation or for connection to a suction or other removal means for aspiration. The perforations (36) are directed towards the wound facing side (34) for fluid flow therethrough, wherein, in use, fluid flows in either chosen direction through the tubing connector and through the perforations. In the embodiment shown the perforations are larger towards the periphery (44) of the wound facing side (34) and smaller towards the centre (46) thereof. In another embodiment the body is in the form of a double spiral coil (12) of perforated plastic tubing (14) of 5cm diameter having an inlet (16) and an outlet (18) and a tubing connector (20) on the side at an open end of the tubing is shown.
