Lumbar Drain Placement

A lumbar drain is a soft, thin, sterile tube (also called a catheter) that your doctor places though the skin of your back, into your lower (lumbar) spine. The drain collects cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This is a clear fluid that surrounds your spinal cord and brain to protect them from injury.
