A closed-suction breathing circuit connector is a sterile device designed to link an endotracheal tube, a ventilator, and a suction pump. By maintaining a sealed system, it allows clinicians to remove secretions without disconnecting the breathing circuit, which helps preserve airway pressure and oxygenation.
These single-use devices feature manually operated valves to isolate circuit segments and regulate suction flow. Some versions may also include integrated ports for the administration of fluids like saline to assist in the suctioning process.
