Studying How Outpatient Water affEcts Risks With Drains (SHOWER Study)

This is a prospective randomized, controlled, unblinded, interventional feasibility study to evaluate if showering with post operative drains in place leads to an increase in complications. The patients included in the study will be those undergoing breast reductions and panniculectomies at Geisinger Medical Center. The patients will be randomized post operatively into one of two groups: 1) patients instructed to shower with drains in place, and 2) patients instructed not to shower while they have drains in place.
