Clinical Application
This mount provides a dedicated mechanical interface for a Yankauer oropharyngeal suction tip, enabling reliable evacuation of blood, saliva, and other fluids during general surgery, ENT, oral/maxillofacial, and anesthesia-managed airway procedures. By securing the Yankauer tip to the suction line or handle, the mount reduces the risk of accidental disconnection, preserves tip orientation in confined oral and oropharyngeal fields, and supports consistent suction management throughout a case.
Design & Configuration
The component is a hub-style mount designed to form the primary connection point between the Yankauer suction tube and the facility suction system. A secure, low-profile connection helps maintain the tip's working angle and minimizes torsion or kinking at the junction, which preserves suction flow and reduces instrument handling. The simple mount-only configuration permits quick attachment and removal so the suction tip can be positioned or exchanged without disrupting the suction line.
