About DAR CLOSED SUCTION SYSTEM REPLACEABLE CATHETER

A sterile flexible tube used in the removal of fluids from the body via a natural body orifice, surgical incision, or wound. It is typically designed to be attached to a collection canister or bottle where a vacuum is created by a suction system via an intermediate tubing. This is a single-use device.

Universal Fit and Advanced Technology

This closed suction system offers rotary and T/Y adapters, ensuring compatibility with diverse ventilator setups. Its transparent, colored connectors enhance visibility while the replaceable catheter design promotes cost-effective, single-patient use. The closed system reduces infection risk and enables continuous ventilator support during airway management.

Sterility and Safety for All Patients

Manufactured in an ISO 13485:2016 certified facility, each catheter is latex-free, individually packaged, and intended for single use only. Sizing options from 6 Fr to 16 Fr make it suitable for neonatal, pediatric, and adult care. Its clear medical-grade PVC construction facilitates easy monitoring during procedures.

Effective and Convenient Airway Suctioning

With a recommended maximum suction duration of 15 seconds, and an easy-to-use manual operation, the system ensures efficient removal of airway secretions while minimizing patient risk. The one-way lavage port simplifies cleaning and further supports infection control protocols in both hospital and emergency settings.

FAQ's of DAR CLOSED SUCTION SYSTEM REPLACEABLE CATHETER:

Q: How do I select the appropriate catheter size for different patients?

A: Choose the catheter size based on the patient's age and airway diameter: 6 Fr and 8 Fr for neonatal and pediatric patients, and larger sizes (10 Fr to 16 Fr) for adults. Refer to clinical guidelines when in doubt to ensure safe and effective suctioning.

Q: What are the main benefits of a closed suction system compared to an open system?

A: A closed suction system allows airway suctioning without disconnecting the patient from the ventilator, reducing infection risk and maintaining oxygenation. Its design with a one-way lavage port further helps prevent cross-contamination.

Q: When should the replaceable catheter be used or changed?

A: The catheter should be used for one patient only and replaced when blocked, visibly soiled, or as recommended by infection control protocols. Always use a new sterile catheter for each replacement to ensure safety.

Q: Where can this closed suction system be used?

A: It is suitable for use in hospitals, emergency care, and clinical settings where airway management for adult, pediatric, or neonatal patients is required. Its lightweight and portable design enhances usability across various medical environments.

Q: What is the recommended process for operating the suction system safely?

A: Connect the system using rotary or T/Y adapters, gently advance the catheter, and apply suction for no longer than 15 seconds per attempt. Clean using the one-way lavage port if necessary. Always follow strict aseptic protocol and manufacturer instructions.

Q: How should the product be stored to maintain sterility and effectiveness?

A: Store the individually packed catheters in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to ensure integrity and a full shelf life of up to three years.

Q: What advantages does the replaceable catheter offer for healthcare providers?

A: The replaceable catheter feature supports single-patient use, cost-effectiveness, and swift turnover. It also ensures compliance with infection control policies by enabling quick and hygienic catheter changes.
