Fukushima Suction Tube 4 Fr 15.0 cm (6")

Malleable suction access for controlled surgical fluid management

The Fukushima tapered teardrop suction tube is a surgical suction instrument intended to remove fluid and maintain a clearer working area during operative procedures. Its 8 1/4-inch length and 153 mm working length provide practical reach, while the 4 French size supports use where a narrower suction profile is appropriate. The malleable form can be shaped by the user for positioning around the operative field, and the tapered teardrop tip supports directed placement. Suitable for general surgery and neurosurgery workflows, this tube offers a focused, adaptable option for routine suction tasks without adding unnecessary bulk to the instrument setup.

Use Cases

• Use for directed suction of fluid during general surgical procedures.
• Apply in neurosurgery workflows where a narrow, positionable suction tube is needed around the operative field.
• Shape the malleable tube to support practical positioning and access during the procedure.
• Use the tapered teardrop tip for controlled placement when clearing fluid from the immediate working area.
• Integrate into surgical suction setups requiring an 8 1/4-inch tube with a 153 mm working length.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the suction tube according to facility protocols and the applicable manufacturer instructions.
• Inspect the tube, tapered tip, and working length for visible residue, blockage, deformation, or damage before and after use.
• Handle the malleable shaft carefully to avoid unintended kinking or damage during shaping and repositioning.
• Store the tube in a manner that protects the tip and prevents unnecessary bending or compression.
