Fukushima tapered teardrop suction tube 8 3/4" 7 French, malleable working length 159mm

Malleable Suction Access for Controlled Fluid Removal

The Fukushima tapered teardrop suction tube is a 7 French surgical suction instrument designed for fluid and debris removal during operative procedures. Its tapered teardrop tip supports focused suction access, while the malleable form allows the working end to be shaped for practical positioning within the operative field. With an overall length of 8 3/4 inches and a 159 mm working length, it provides useful reach for routine handling without adding unnecessary bulk. The design suits varied surgical workflows, including General Surgery and Neurosurgery, where controlled instrument placement and clear visualization support efficient procedural handling.

Use Cases

• Remove fluid and debris from the operative field during General Surgery procedures.
• Support controlled suction access when the working end needs practical positioning around anatomical structures.
• Use the tapered teardrop tip for focused access in narrow or localized areas of the surgical field.
• Apply during Neurosurgery workflows where delicate instrument positioning and unobstructed visualization are important.
• Shape the malleable tube as needed for operative access while maintaining familiar suction-tube handling.

Specifications

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the suction tube according to facility protocols and the applicable manufacturer instructions.
• Inspect the tapered tip, tube, and working length for blockage, damage, or deformation before and after use.
• Handle the malleable tube carefully when shaping or repositioning it to help preserve its intended form.
• Store the instrument in a manner that protects the tip and prevents unnecessary bending or impact.

General use; follow facility protocols.
