The Yankauer Suction Catheter is made from medical-grade PVC and silicone, offering advantages such as being non-toxic, latex-free, and hypoallergenic. It is typically supplied as sterile and is compatible with ethylene oxide (ETO) sterilization methods. The tube is highly flexible, resistant to bending and cracking, ensuring safe and reliable suction. Common lengths range from 180 cm to 250 cm, and custom lengths are also accepted. Yankauer suction catheters meet a variety of clinical needs. Standard IDs are 3/16", 1/4", and 9/32". The bulbous tip provides effective suction without damaging surrounding tissue. The ergonomically designed Yankauer handle facilitates grip and suction control. The nozzle diameter is designed to effectively remove thick secretions and fluids without clogging, supporting continuous suction rates suitable for operating room or emergency use.
The Yankauer Suction Catheter is compatible with most standard straw connectors with an inlet diameter of 6mm or 7mm. Some models feature a built-in on/off valve in the Yankauer handle for easy and quick suction control. We use individually sterilized packaging to maintain sterility. Single-use eliminates the risk of cross-contamination. The Yankauer Catheter is primarily used for clearing blood, saliva, and other fluids during surgery, airway access for intensive care or trauma patients, and keeping the mouth dry during dental interventions. We have FDA, CE, and MDR certifications, ensuring complete qualifications and quality. Choosing GLOBALROLL will not disappoint.
