Tube Suction

Tube Suction PVC10FG or 12FG

Tube Suction Overview

• Airway Clearance: Used to clear obstructed airways by suctioning out mucus, blood, vomit, or secretions, improving breathing and oxygenation.
• Respiratory Therapy: Often used in patients with conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, or bronchitis, who require frequent suctioning to manage secretions.
• Surgical Procedures: Used during surgical operations to keep the airway clear of fluids or to suction fluids from the wound or surgical site.
• Post-Surgical Care: Patients recovering from surgeries, especially those involving the throat, lungs, or abdomen, may require suctioning to remove fluids from the airway.
• Emergency Care: Essential in emergency situations such as choking, aspiration, or respiratory failure, where rapid suction is needed to restore airway patency.

Multiple Gauge Sizes (10FG and 12FG)
The 10FG and 12FG sizing options allow for versatility depending on the patient’s size and the type of suction required:

• 10FG: The smaller 10 French Gauge tube is ideal for use with pediatric patients, or for procedures that require gentle suction, such as clearing airways in newborns or infants.
• 12FG: The larger 12 French Gauge tube is suitable for adult patients or those requiring stronger suction to remove thicker secretions, blood, or other fluids from the respiratory tract.
