About the Angiplast Suction Catheter FG 18


The Angiplast Suction Catheter FG 18 is engineered for optimal performance and patient comfort.
Its smooth, frosted surface and soft rounded tip minimize trauma during insertion, making the suctioning process as gentle as possible.

It is an indispensable tool in hospitals, clinics, and home care settings for managing patients with excess mucus or phlegm, thereby preventing aspiration pneumonia and improving gas exchange.

Key Benefits


  • **Effective Secretion Removal:** Powerfully clears mucus and phlegm from the upper and lower respiratory tracts.

  • **Maintains Clear Airway:** Ensures unobstructed airflow, crucial for proper breathing and oxygenation.

  • **Reduces Risk of Aspiration:** Helps prevent inhaled secretions from entering the lungs.

  • **Improves Ventilation:** Contributes to better lung function and gas exchange.

  • **Gentle on Tissues:** Smooth, atraumatic tip design minimizes irritation and injury to mucous membranes.

  • **Sterile for Patient Safety:** Individually packed and sterilized for hygienic, single-use application.

  • **High Quality Material:** Made from medical-grade, non-toxic, and non-irritating PVC.

How to Use


1. **Prepare Equipment:** Ensure all necessary equipment, including a suction machine, connecting tubing, and sterile gloves, is readily available.
2. **Perform Hand Hygiene:** Wash hands thoroughly or use an alcohol-based hand rub.
3. **Open Sterile Packaging:** Carefully open the individual sterile peel pouch, maintaining aseptic technique.
4. **Connect Catheter:** Securely attach the suction catheter to the suction connecting tubing.
5. **Insert Gently:** Gently insert the catheter into the patient's respiratory tract (oral cavity, nasopharynx, or tracheal tube), ensuring not to apply suction during insertion.
6. **Apply Suction:** Once inserted to the desired depth, apply intermittent suction while slowly withdrawing the catheter with a rotating motion. Do not exceed recommended suction duration to prevent hypoxia.
7. **Dispose Safely:** Dispose of the catheter immediately after a single use according to local medical waste disposal protocols.
