ANS: D
A drain enhances wound healing by preventing tissue devitalization or wound margin necrosis, eliminating fluid accumulation, obliterating dead space, allowing apposition of tissues, preventing formation of hematomas or serums, minimizing a potential source of wound contamination, decreasing postoperative pain, and minimizing scarring.
