Clinical Application
Used to evacuate blood, irrigation fluid and particulate debris from confined operative fields, this compact suction cannula is suited to ENT, oral/maxillofacial, plastic and minor general surgical procedures. Its 5.0 mm lumen balances suction flow with a low-profile tip, allowing controlled aspiration in shallow cavities, around delicate soft tissue, and in procedures where visibility and gentle handling are priorities.
Design & Configuration
The Fergusson pattern provides a slim tubular profile and an ergonomically familiar form factor favored in confined or superficial operative sites. The 11 cm length gives sufficient reach for intraoral and superficial head/neck work without excessive protrusion that can obstruct the field. Lumen diameter is a key design parameter that determines flow rate and resistance; the 5.0 mm size is commonly selected to provide effective aspiration while maintaining a manageable tip profile for atraumatic access.
