Frazier suction tube 8 1/2" 5 French straight working length 140mm, thumb plate with round cutoff hole

Controlled suction access for general and neurosurgical workflows

The Frazier suction tube is a slender surgical suction instrument designed to remove fluid and maintain a clearer working area during procedures. Its 5 French straight format and 140 mm working length support access in applications where a narrow profile and extended reach are useful. The thumb plate with round cutoff hole allows the operator to regulate suction directly during handling, helping coordinate aspiration with the pace of the procedure. Suitable for general surgery and neurosurgery workflows, this tube provides a familiar, task-focused configuration for controlled suction management without adding unnecessary complexity to the operative setup.

Use Cases

• Use for controlled aspiration during general surgery procedures where maintaining a clearer operative field is part of the workflow.
• Apply in neurosurgical settings requiring a narrow 5 French suction tube with a straight configuration.
• Use the 140 mm working length to support access to the operative area while keeping the hand positioned for practical instrument control.
• Operate the thumb plate and round cutoff hole to adjust suction during active aspiration tasks.
• Incorporate into suction-tube setups where a slender instrument is preferred for focused fluid removal.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the suction tube according to facility protocols and the applicable instrument-care instructions.
• Inspect the tube, working end, thumb plate, and round cutoff hole for residue, blockage, distortion, or visible damage before and after use.
• Handle the straight tube carefully during cleaning, transport, and setup to avoid bending or damaging its working configuration.
• Store in a clean, protected location that helps prevent contact damage and preserves access to the tube lumen.

General use; follow facility protocols.
