Vacuum hose is a flexible, reinforced tubing designed to safely transmit suction from medical vacuum systems to connected devices or equipment. Clinically, it ensures reliable airflow for procedures like wound drainage, aspiration, or respiratory support, where consistent vacuum pressure is critical.
These hoses are typically reusable and manufactured to strict standards like ISO 5359 to maintain structural integrity under negative pressure. They come in various lengths and color-coded designs for compatibility with different medical setups, though regulation varies by jurisdiction and application.
