📌 Description:
The Suction Catheter is a flexible, sterile medical device used to remove mucus and secretions from the airway to maintain clear breathing in patients who cannot do so themselves. Commonly used in hospitals, ICUs, ambulances, and home healthcare for patients on ventilators or with tracheostomy tubes.
Made from medical-grade PVC, it is soft, kink-resistant, and safe for insertion into the trachea or endotracheal tube. It comes with color-coded connectors for easy size identification and is single-use only to prevent infection.
