Drainage System Including Actuation Device For Providing A Negative Pressure For Draining And Collecting Bodily Fluids

A method of forming a drainage system for draining a bodily fluid, the method comprising:

• connecting a first drainage tube to an inlet of a housing of an actuation device, the actuation device comprising:
• the housing comprising a container-receiving chamber that is sized and configured to receive a pre-evacuated container therein, the actuation device comprising an actuation member that, upon actuation, is configured to reduce a distance between a seal of the pre-evacuated container and a piercing element such that the piercing element pierces the seal of the pre-evacuated container inside the container-receiving chamber thereby providing communication of a negative pressure inside the pre-evacuated container to a fluid-receiving passageway to draw bodily fluid into the fluid-receiving passageway and toward a fluid-receiving body;
• and
• placing a pre-evacuated container in the container receiving chamber.
