Short descriptionSuction catheter designed for effective removal of respiratory secretions from the mouth, trachea and bronchial passages to maintain a clear airway and reduce risk of mucus obstruction. Manufactured from non-toxic, kink-resistant medical-grade PVC, the catheter features frozen-surface tubing for smooth insertion and a soft atraumatic rounded distal tip with a single lateral eye to minimize tissue trauma. The universal, color-coded funnel connector enables rapid size identification. Sterile and individually packed for use in routine and critical respiratory care.
