Olive Tip for Nabatoff 15mm

Clinical Application

This olive-shaped tip is intended as an atraumatic suction/irrigation accessory for Nabatoff-style 15 mm suction systems. The rounded "olive" geometry reduces focal suction trauma and tissue entrapment, making it useful during delicate dissections, clot evacuation, and controlled removal of blood and fluids in neurosurgical, otolaryngology, head & neck, plastic/reconstructive and general open procedures. It functions as a replacement or spare tip to maintain uninterrupted suction performance in the operating room.

Design & Configuration

The rounded olive profile distributes negative pressure over a broader surface area compared with a beveled or sharp suction tip, which helps avoid suctioning and damaging friable tissue. A 15 mm nominal diameter provides high flow capacity for rapid evacuation of hemorrhage and irrigation fluid while remaining broad enough to limit point contact. The tip is a removable accessory, allowing straightforward replacement and reprocessing between cases.
