Functional and Technical Product Description

Available sizes: 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 FR

• Intended Use: This flexible medical tube is used to suction and remove mucus, saliva, and accumulated respiratory secretions from the patient’s airway, particularly for patients experiencing difficulty breathing or those receiving mechanical ventilation.
• Size Identification by Color (8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 FR – Black): The catheter features a black control head, which is the standardized international color code for 10 French (10 FR). This is a medium-sized catheter that may be used for older children or adults, depending on the treating physician’s assessment and the size of the endotracheal tube.
• Individual Sterility and Safety (100 PCS): The package contains 100 pieces, each individually sterilized using Ethylene Oxide gas (Sterile EO) and individually packaged to ensure safe and hygienic use each time.
• Single Use Only: Designed for use on one patient and for one procedure only. The catheter should be discarded immediately after use as biomedical medical waste, helping prevent bacterial transmission and cross-infection of the respiratory tract.
• Thumb Control Valve: Equipped with an upper control valve that allows the nurse or healthcare provider to manually start and stop the vacuum suction force with the thumb, providing precise control while gently inserting and withdrawing the catheter to help protect the airway tissues.
