OMNIVAC secretion aspiration system 35
10. OMNIVAC secretion aspiration
system
The OMNIVAC secretion aspiration system consists
of one or two aspirate bottles and the necessary
tubing. The aspirate bottles are available in
capacities of 250 ml, 500 ml or 1000 ml.
An overflow cutout in the lid of the bottle stops
secretion penetrating the module by a ball floating
on the surface of the secretion and blocking the
outlet.
A tube which is connected to the tube stub of the
aspirate bottle lid is provided for connection to the
vacuum source.
We recommend fitting hydrophobic bacteria filter
WM 22291 for the exhaust air to prevent secretion
and bacteria penetrating the module. The filter is
available as an accessory. It is a disposable item and
must be replaced after every aspiration operation.
A large-lumen aspirating tube with a diameter of
10 mm and a tapered connection is connected for
aspirating. This also functions as an aspiration
intensifier, allowing even viscous and solid pieces of
food to be removed quickly and easily from the
mouth and throat. You are thus able to deal
effectively with aspiration.
You can extend the large-lumen tube with an
aspirating tube with a diameter of 6 mm to adapt
aspiration catheters. This enables you to remove
mucous and blood by the conventional method
using aspirating catheters.
