Closed Suction Catheter
Our Closed Suction Catheter is a specialized, circuit-integrated device engineered to safely clear airway secretions in invasively ventilated patients—all while maintaining the integrity of the breathing circuit. It eliminates the risks of open suctioning (e.g., oxygen desaturation, infection) and streamlines airway care for critical care teams.

Key Features
Vacuum Connector
Attaches to negative pressure suction systems for secretion removal.
Aspiration Catheter
Flexible, patient-safe catheter for gentle airway secretion clearance.
Color Ring
Color-coded size identifier for fast, error-free selection.
Vacuum Activation Button
One-touch control to initiate suction, simplifying caregiver operation.
Protective Sheath
Shields the catheter from contamination between uses.
Disconnect Wedge
Facilitates easy separation of the breathing tube from the suction system.
ET Tube/Breathing Circuit Connectors
Securely links to tracheal tubes (endotracheal/tracheostomy) and mechanical ventilation circuits.
Sliding Valve
Isolates the catheter to prevent fluid backflow into the trachea.
MDI Port
Integrated access for metered-dose inhaler (MDI) airway drug delivery.
Irrigation Port
One-way valve design prevents backflow leakage, enabling easy system cleaning.
Clinical Advantages
Preserves Ventilation Integrity
Eliminates the need to disconnect the breathing circuit—maintaining positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and preventing oxygen desaturation (a critical risk with open suctioning).
Reduces Infection Risk
Sealed design minimizes exposure between the airway and environment, lowering the likelihood of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and cross-contamination.
Multifunctional Care Support
The MDI port enables targeted airway medication delivery, while the irrigation port simplifies system maintenance—consolidating multiple care steps into one device.
Flexible Patient Coverage
Multiple sizes (6Fr–18Fr), adult/pediatric options, and 24/72-hour use durations adapt to diverse critical care needs.
Streamlined Care Workflows
Color-coded sizing and one-touch suction activation reduce caregiver time and operational errors.
Applications
Adult/Pediatric Critical Care: Secretion management for invasively ventilated patients in ICUs, respiratory wards, or post-anesthesia care units (PACUs).
PEEP-Dependent Patients: Maintains ventilatory support for patients requiring stable end-expiratory pressure (e.g., acute respiratory distress syndrome, COPD exacerbation).
Combination Airway Care: Supports concurrent secretion clearance and MDI drug delivery for patients with complex respiratory needs.
Short/Extended Ventilation: 24-hour (acute short-term) and 72-hour (longer-term) options match varying ventilatory support durations.
