Frequently asked questions
Does this system maintain continuous ventilation?
Yes. This system is designed to connect directly between the breathing circuit and the artificial airway, allowing for suctioning procedures to be performed without interrupting the patient’s ventilator support.
How does this design help with infection control?
The closed-system design significantly reduces the risk of cross-contamination. By keeping the circuit sealed, it prevents exposure to aerosolized pathogens for both the patient and the healthcare providers.
Is the catheter protected during use?
Yes, the catheter is encapsulated within a flexible, accordion-style protective sleeve. This ensures the device remains isolated from the external environment throughout the procedure.
Does it include a way to clear the catheter after use?
Absolutely. It features a patient-end adaptor with an integrated flushing system, which allows for efficient post-suction clearance.
Is this device safe for ventilator-dependent adults?
The Sunset Standard Closed Suction System is specifically engineered for ventilator-dependent adult patients in critical care or long-term respiratory facilities. It is a sterile, single-patient-use device intended for use by qualified healthcare professionals.
How long can each unit be used?
This device is designed for a 24-hour use duration. It is strictly for single-patient use to maintain the highest standards of clinical safety.
Are the components easy to monitor during suctioning?
Yes, the system is constructed from medical-grade, transparent plastic. This allows clinicians to maintain clear visualization of the catheter and secretions during the suctioning process.
Is this system compliant with TAA regulations?
Yes, this Sunset Healthcare suction system is TAA compliant.
Does the system provide precise vacuum control?
Yes, the assembly includes a dedicated vacuum control device to provide the precision required by medical staff during airway clearance.
What is the size and length of this catheter?
This specific model is a 14 Fr. catheter with a length of 12 inches, designed specifically for tracheostomy-type suctioning.
