Surgical suction pump

A surgical suction pump is an electrically powered device designed to create negative pressure for removing fluids, blood, or debris from surgical sites or body cavities during procedures such as general surgery, liposuction, or laparoscopy. It helps maintain a clear surgical field for better visualization and may also be used to clear the airway or oral cavity, but it is not intended for vascular procedures, thoracic drainage, dental use, or irrigation.

This category includes devices that may feature pressure controls, gauges, collection containers, or tubing, but excludes any patient-contact components like handpieces, tips, or catheters. These pumps are regulated as medical devices based on their intended use and are supplied as standalone units or systems requiring compatible accessories for clinical operation.
