Clinical Application
Designed for controlled aspiration in open procedures where atraumatic contact with tissue is required. The olive-shaped tip permits broad-area suction and gentle engagement of soft tissue, making it useful for evacuating blood, irrigation fluid, soft clots, and debris while minimizing tissue ingrowth into the lumen. Common clinical settings include neurosurgery, ENT, head & neck, and general surgery procedures that require high-volume or low-fouling suction performance.
Design & Configuration
The rounded (olive) leading profile distributes suction forces over a larger surface area than a sharp-beveled tip, reducing the risk of focal tissue injury and preventing the tip from cutting into delicate structures. The 12 mm large-bore diameter increases flow capacity and reduces obstruction from viscous material and particulate debris, improving field clearance efficiency. The straight cannula geometry provides direct control and visibility at the operative site for precise aspiration.
