Medical drain bulbs and systems for draining fluid from a body tissue or cavity. A bulb may include a spring force modulator that modulates a spring force provided by the walls of the bulb as the walls return to an expanded state after being squeezed. The spring force modulator may modulate the negative pressure produced by the bulb so that the negative pressure created by the bulb remains within a predetermined negative pressure range, thereby providing more efficient suction with every pump. The pump systems include one or more features that provide efficiency and convenience of use.

Described herein are implants (e.g., medical textiles/biotextiles) that include nonuniform stitching patterns to reinforce and bolster the tensile strength of a substrate base and provide customized compliance characteristic to the implant. In some examples, the nonuniform stitching pattern does not substantially change the compliance of the implant relative to the substrate in directions along a plane of the substrate. In some examples, the nonuniform stitching pattern creates a nonuniform directional compliance characteristic to the implant. The implants may be configured as surgical grafts that may be used for soft tissue reconstruction, regeneration, or repair.
