Clinical Application
Provides controlled, atraumatic suction in confined or delicate operative fields. The olive-shaped tip is intended to gently evacuate blood, irrigation fluid and fine particulate debris from cortical surfaces, cisterns and narrow anatomical corridors without biting or tearing soft tissue. Common applications include neurosurgery and otolaryngology procedures where precise local suction is required near critical structures.
Design & Configuration
The rounded “olive” tip geometry disperses the suction entrance across a blunt surface rather than a sharp edge, reducing the risk of tissue entrapment and focal aspiration. A 3 mm tip diameter balances lumen flow with fine control, allowing visibility and maneuverability in tight spaces while maintaining effective fluid removal. The rigid tubular configuration provides tactile feedback and positional stability during microdissection and hemostatic tasks.
Instrument Specifications
