Clinical Application
Designed for precise suction and intermittent irrigation in confined surgical fields, this small‑bore Frazier pattern tube is commonly used in otolaryngology, neurosurgery, plastic and reconstructive microsurgery, and other procedures where controlled aspiration and close visualization are required. The 10 Fr lumen provides effective fluid and particulate removal while minimizing tissue disruption; integrated fiber optic illumination improves visualization at the tip without adding bulk to the working field.
Design & Configuration
The slender 19 cm shaft and 10 Fr diameter permit access into tight or deep cavities while maintaining a small footprint at the operative site. The lateral thumb‑control fenestration enables the operator to modulate suction instantly without removing the instrument, allowing quick transition between active aspiration and passive positioning. Integration of a fiber optic light channel routes illumination to the distal tip, producing coaxial light that enhances tissue differentiation and reduces shadowing during microsurgical tasks.
Instrument Specifications
- Pattern: Frazier suction tube with thumb‑controlled lateral port
- Size: 10 Fr lumen
- Length: 19 cm
- Illumination: Integrated fiber optic light channel to distal tip
- Construction: single‑lumen suction shaft for targeted aspiration
