Suction Catheters
A suction catheter is a medical device used to extract bodily secretions, such as mucus or saliva from the upper airway. A suction catheter connects to a suction machine or collection canister.
Once you securely attach one end of a catheter to an aspirator or collection canister, the unattached end will be placed directly into a trach tube to extract secretions. Suction catheters come in a variety of styles. Choose from a closed system, a rigid yankauer, latex rubber, latex free and more.
