Clinical Application
This suction cannula is intended for intraoperative aspiration of blood, irrigation fluid, and small debris to maintain a clear surgical field. Its 4.0 mm lumen provides a balance of suction flow and control suitable for procedures in general surgery, ENT, oral‑maxillofacial, and plastic surgery where a mid‑sized tip is preferred. The 20 cm length allows access into deeper cavities and wound beds while keeping the handpiece comfortably outside the immediate operative zone.
Design & Configuration
The straight, single‑lumen tubular design delivers efficient continuous aspiration with minimal clogging when used for routine fluid removal. A 4.0 mm internal diameter offers moderate flow rate appropriate for blood and irrigation fluids without the bulk of larger cannulae, improving visibility and maneuverability around delicate tissues. The smooth, rounded tip reduces snagging and tissue trauma during use and facilitates atraumatic positioning against wound surfaces.
