Fukushima Suction Tube 6 Fr 18.0 cm (7")

Malleable Teardrop Suction for Controlled Surgical Access

The Fukushima tapered teardrop suction tube is a surgical suction instrument designed to remove fluid and maintain a clearer working area during operative procedures. Its tapered teardrop form supports focused suction, while the malleable construction allows the working end to be shaped for access around the operative field. The 9 1/2-inch overall length and 178 mm working length provide useful reach for general surgery and neurosurgery workflows. With a 6 French size, it is suited to tasks requiring a smaller suction profile and deliberate handling near delicate or confined areas, helping teams adapt instrument positioning to procedural needs.

Use Cases

• Use during general surgery procedures to evacuate fluid and support visibility within the operative field.
• Apply in neurosurgery workflows where controlled suction and careful positioning are required around a confined surgical site.
• Shape the malleable tube to help approach the intended area from a practical angle during operative handling.
• Use the tapered teardrop tip for focused suction when working within a localized area of the field.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess according to the facility's established protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the tube, tapered teardrop tip, and malleable section for visible damage, deformation, blockage, or residue before use.
• Handle the malleable section carefully and avoid unnecessary bending or force that could affect its intended shape.
• Store in a clean, protected location to help prevent damage to the tube and tip.
