This category includes reusable, rigid or semi-rigid tubes designed to aspirate fluids or debris from body cavities, wounds, or surgical sites while simultaneously providing illumination to improve visibility during procedures. The device features a built-in light source or fiberoptic bundle to illuminate the operative field and is intended for use in general surgical or emergency settings, excluding dental, intrauterine, liposuction, ophthalmic, and intravascular applications.
As a reusable device, it is intended for multiple uses after appropriate cleaning, disinfection, or sterilization in accordance with manufacturer instructions. Regulatory oversight focuses on its design, materials, and performance as a non-drug-delivering, non-irrigating suction and illumination tool, with classification determined by jurisdiction based on risk assessment of its invasive nature and intended use.
