SUCTION CATHETER FG:16 - PRECISION AIRWAY MANAGEMENT

The SUMBOW Suction Catheter FG:16 is an indispensable sterile, single-use medical device engineered for efficient and safe airway management, primarily focusing on the removal of respiratory secretions. Designed with patient comfort and caregiver control in mind, this catheter provides a crucial tool in maintaining clear airways, which is paramount in preventing respiratory complications and reducing the risk of infection. Each box contains 10 units, ensuring readiness for clinical use.

Key Benefits

  • Effective Secretion Removal: Rapidly clears the airway of mucus and other secretions, improving ventilation.
  • Fingertip Control: Allows for precise and immediate suction modulation, enhancing patient safety and procedural efficiency.
  • Sterile and Single-Use: Minimizes the risk of cross-contamination and infection, ensuring hygienic practices.
  • Patient Comfort: Designed with smooth materials to reduce trauma during insertion and withdrawal.
  • Reduced Infection Risk: Maintaining clear airways directly contributes to a lower incidence of respiratory infections.

How To Use

  1. Ensure the patient is in an appropriate position (e.g., semi-Fowler's).
  2. Assemble the suction system, connecting the catheter to the suction source.
  3. Pre-oxygenate the patient if indicated by clinical guidelines.
  4. Gently insert the catheter into the patient's airway (nasal, oral, or tracheal) without applying suction.
  5. Once in position, apply intermittent suction while slowly withdrawing the catheter with a rotating motion.
  6. Limit suctioning time to avoid hypoxia and mucosal damage, typically no more than 10-15 seconds per pass.
  7. Discard the used catheter and clean the suction equipment as per hospital protocol.

Caution & Warnings

  • For Single Use Only: Do not re-sterilize or reuse. Reuse may lead to infection or device malfunction.
  • Sterility: Do not use if the package is opened or damaged.
  • Professional Use: To be used by trained medical professionals only.
  • Monitor Patient: Closely observe the patient for signs of distress, hypoxia, or bradycardia during suctioning.
  • Avoid Excessive Suction: Use the lowest effective suction pressure to prevent tissue damage.
