What Makes Frazier Suction Tubes Unique?
With a comprehensive selection of suction tube models to meet the needs of any medical facility or surgical procedure, gSource is a single-source supplier for these essential aspiration tools. The Frazier suction tube includes a unique combination of features that make it ideal for providing precise suction in confined surgical spaces.
Distinctive features of the design include:
- Thumb-plate valve: A tiny hole on the handle allows the user to precisely control the suction force. This finger-cut-off valve provides a fine level of control, allowing variable and intermittent suction with the natural movement of covering or uncovering the hole as required.
- Stylet: A thin, flexible wire, or stylet, is included in the design to quickly clear blockages that could interfere with the suction during surgeries.
- Small diameter and custom tip: The design features a tapered tip and thin suction tubes, allowing surgeons to access small or deep surgical spaces with the least amount of damage to surrounding tissue.
- Specific angled design: The curve on Frazier suction tubes is typically more sharply angled than other models to facilitate a clear view when working in tight spaces.
Frazier suction tubes are a good fit for procedures requiring a high degree of precision and delicate operations where exact suction control is essential.
Frazier Suction Tube Uses
The Frazier suction tube, developed by Dr. Charles Frazier in the early 20th century, further developed and modified its predecessor, the Yankauer suction tube. Its slender, angled design and precise suction control make Frazier suction tubes especially useful in surgeries in confined surgical spaces, such as the nasal cavity, and during cervical and lumbar surgeries. These suction tubes are also a preferred choice for ENT specialists and maxillofacial surgeons.
