How do you choose a suction catheter?
- Size: no wider than half the airway or tube.
- Tip: side eyes reduce tissue grabbing.
- Control: a thumb vent lets you start and stop suction easily.
- Material: soft PVC passes more gently.
- Sterility: use a new sterile catheter each time.
Open vs closed suction catheters
| Open suction catheter | Closed suction system | |
|---|---|---|
| Use | Single pass, then bin | Stays on the ventilator circuit |
| Setting | Wards, ER, home trach | ICU ventilated patients |
| Cost per pass | Lower | Higher upfront |
Open catheters cover most ward and home needs. Ventilated ICU patients may need closed systems.
How to suction safely
Clean hands and put on gloves. Check the suction pressure. Insert the catheter without suction. Apply suction as you pull back, rotating gently. Keep each pass short and let the patient rest between passes.
Home tracheostomy care
Families caring for trach patients need a steady supply. Keep a suction machine, catheters, gloves and saline together. Learn the routine from a nurse before discharge.
Bulk supply
ICUs and wards use many catheters each day. Order by the box in each size. Tell us your weekly use and we will suggest a quantity.
Care and usage tips
- Use a new catheter every time.
- Suction only while pulling back.
- Keep passes short.
- Stock the right sizes for each ward.
Frequently asked questions
What is a suction catheter used for?
It removes mucus, saliva, blood and vomit from the airway. This helps patients who cannot cough well, such as those with trach tubes or reduced awareness. It connects to a suction machine. Staff use it in hospitals and at home.
What does FG or FR mean?
FG (French gauge) and FR (French) mean the same thing. They measure the outside width. Each unit equals one-third of a millimetre. So 12 FG is 4 mm wide. Higher numbers mean wider catheters. We confirm stock, sizes and delivery time with your quote.
