105 devices · GMDN 36778

A general-purpose vacuum suction system is a medical assembly used to remove fluids, gases, tissue, or foreign objects from a patient's body cavity or lumen. These systems are essential in various clinical environments for maintaining clear surgical sites or clearing airways during procedures.

These systems operate by connecting directly to a facility's central vacuum pipeline through dedicated tubing and a regulator. The assembly typically consists of a collection container, an overflow trap, and suction tips, which work together to manage the controlled extraction of materials.
