Merz suction tube 6 5 French angled shaft straight atraumatic tip working length 80mm

Controlled Suction Access for Focused Surgical Work

The Merz suction tube is a 5Fr surgical suction instrument designed to remove fluid and maintain a clearer working area during procedures. Its angled shaft supports access and positioning where a straight-line approach may be less convenient, while the 80mm working length provides a defined reach for focused handling. The straight atraumatic tip is suited to careful contact with the operative field. In general surgery and neurosurgery, this configuration can support controlled suction tasks that require compact sizing, directional access, and deliberate instrument manipulation without adding unnecessary bulk to the workflow.

Use Cases

• Direct suction of pooled fluid from the operative field during general surgery.
• Focused fluid removal in neurosurgical procedures where controlled access and careful positioning are important.
• Use the angled shaft to approach areas that are not aligned with the hand or suction connection.
• Apply the 5Fr tube when a compact suction profile is appropriate for a focused surgical task.
• Use the 80mm working length for localized access within the operative field.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the suction tube according to applicable facility procedures and the manufacturer’s instructions for use.
• Inspect the angled shaft, straight atraumatic tip, and suction pathway for visible residue, blockage, or damage before handling.
• Handle the tip carefully during cleaning, inspection, and setup to help preserve its stated configuration.
• Store the instrument in a clean, protected manner that prevents bending, impact, or contamination.
