Suction Tubes

Suction Tubes are used to extract certain body fluids such as blood, mucus and secretions from the site. These bleeding control instruments are not only useful for surgical procedures but also for nursing, dentistry and many fields of medicine.

Key Features:

Material: Fabricated suction tubes are usually made of medical stainless steel and plastic so that they can be hygienically and anti-rust.

Design: Available in straight, curved and angled lines to suit different anatomical areas and offer specific medical services.

Mobility: A good number of suction tubes are lightweight and easy to lift during surgery.

Tip Options: The suction tube tips can be made blunted or tapered or kerned and can also be fenestrated (with holes) to moderate the suction power and control force on the tissues.

Length and Diameter: At times suction tubes are used very briefly and come in varying lengths and diameters depending on the requirement of the procedure or body structure of the patient.

Single-use or Multi-use: Some suction tubes are single-use only and hence are sterile while others can also be reused and sterilized for further uses.

Uses:

Surgical Procedures: Suction Iris And Cannula allows the surgeons to work in a blood-free/non-functional area. This unit works by taking out blood and other fluids from the operating site.

Dental Surgeries: Suction tubes in any dental surgery take up blood and saliva to make the field dry.

Airway Management: In an emergency, they can be used to remove mucus, vomit or blood from airways to prevent choking and enable breathing.
