A reusable suction cannula is a rigid or semi-rigid tube used during surgery to remove blood, fluids, and tissue debris from the surgical site. These devices are connected to a suction system and are designed for general surgical procedures, though some may be paired with specialized handpieces for targeted use.
Reusable suction cannulas are typically regulated as medical devices and must meet safety and performance standards before being supplied. They are often classified based on their intended use and risk level, with variations in design—such as metal or durable plastic construction—affecting their regulatory considerations.
