Clinical Application
Provides a low-profile connection point for airway management in settings where a Luer-style interface is required. Used to maintain and protect a tracheal airway, to facilitate connection to breathing circuits, inline suction systems, or ventilator adapters during operative procedures, postoperative care, and in critical care environments. The 13 mm connection size is intended to match equipment and adapters that accept this diameter, supporting effective ventilation and suctioning workflows.
Design & Configuration
The Luer-style connector delivers a simple, secure attachment to compatible breathing circuits and suction assemblies. The instrument’s model designation (Fig.9, S/P) identifies the manufacturer’s specific configuration; the 13 mm interface dimension is the key specification for ensuring compatibility with downstream tubing, valves, and adapters. A smooth internal lumen geometry minimizes flow resistance and facilitates passage of suction catheters when required. Clinically, confirming connector size before use reduces the need for additional adapters and expedites airway setup.
