Clinical Application
This angled suction tube is intended to provide controlled evacuation of saliva, blood and secretions from the oropharynx and upper airway during laryngoscopy, intubation and related ENT procedures. The 24.5 cm working length permits access to the posterior oropharynx and proximal trachea without excessive insertion depth. The 2.0 mm internal diameter delivers a focused suction stream useful for targeted clearance while minimizing obstruction of the visual field during airway management.
Design & Configuration
The Magill pattern features an anatomically angled, rigid shaft designed to follow the curvature of the oropharynx during direct laryngoscopy. This geometry allows the operator to position the tip near the epiglottis or vocal cords while maintaining a stable grip and sightline. The single-lumen configuration balances precision suctioning with structural rigidity for one-handed control; the outer diameter supports durability and repeated handling in a surgical setting.
