Frazier Suction Surgical Tube 9fr (3mm) 20cm Aspirator Diagnostic Instruments

The Frazier Suction Surgical Tube is a medical device used primarily in surgeries and diagnostic procedures to suction fluids, debris, or secretions from a patient's body. Here’s a breakdown of the key features and specifications for the Frazier Suction Surgical Tube (9Fr, 3mm, 20cm):

1. Size (9Fr):

   • The "9Fr" refers to the French size (Fr), which is a unit of measurement used for catheters and tubes. The 9Fr size corresponds to a diameter of 3mm.

2. Length (20cm):

   • The tube is 20 cm long, which makes it suitable for reaching deeper areas in the surgical or diagnostic site without being too long for ease of handling.

3. Material:

   • Frazier suction tubes are generally made from durable, flexible materials like medical-grade plastic or silicone, designed to withstand sterilization and repeated use.

4. Function:

   • The primary purpose of the Frazier suction tube is to provide precise suction for clearing the surgical field during operations. It is typically used for procedures involving the ear, nose, throat (ENT), or other delicate tissues.

5. Design:

   • The Frazier suction tube is designed with a small, tapered tip and a narrow bore, allowing for targeted suction in tight or sensitive areas. This makes it ideal for use in diagnostic procedures or surgeries where precision is essential.

6. Type (Aspirator):

   • The term "Aspirator" refers to the function of the device, which is to remove fluids or gases (aspiration) through the tube when connected to a suction system.

7. Application:

   • It is commonly used in ENT surgeries, neurosurgeries, or any procedure that requires controlled suction in smaller or more delicate areas.

8. Sterility:

   • Typically, Frazier suction tubes come in sterile packaging for single-use or can be autoclaved if intended for reuse.

This instrument is critical in maintaining a clear surgical field and preventing fluid buildup during operations, enhancing both the visibility and safety of the procedure.
