Key Design and Material Features
- Primary Function: Designed for the effective removal of secretions from the trachea and bronchial region.
- Safety Tip: Features a soft rounded tip that is non-traumatic to the patient, particularly during intubation and insertion.
- Efficient Suction: Includes two lateral eyes at the distal end to maximize suction efficiency and prevent mucosal damage.
- Tubing Quality: Constructed from Medical Grade PVC that is soft, frosted, and kink resistant, ensuring non-allergic and safe usage.
- Length and Packaging: Standard length of 460 mm. Each unit is supplied in a single peel pack, sterile, and ready for immediate use.
Control and Identification Specifications
- Aspiration Control: The color tapered mount and finger grip connects securely to standard suction tubing, allowing positive control over suctioning (IV Special Vacuum Control).
- Size Identification: Connector is color coded to facilitate easy identification of the French gauge size.
- Available Colors (for sizing): Yellow, Red, Orange, Green, White, Black, Blue, Light Green.
