Is the ConMed Yankauer instrument reusable?

No, the ConMed Bulb Tip Yankauer Instrument is designed for single-use only. It is delivered as a sterile instrument to ensure maximum patient safety and effectively prevent cross-contamination between surgical procedures.

Is the suction tubing pre-attached?

Yes, the tubing is pre-attached to the ConMed Bulb Tip Yankauer instrument for convenience and efficiency, ensuring it is ready for immediate sterile use. This integrated feature helps streamline surgical workflow.

Key specifications regarding the tubing are:

  • Length: 10 feet (3 meters)
  • Feature: Pre-attached to save time and streamline setup in the operating room.
  • Benefit: Provides a secure connection vital for the instrument’s rapid aspiration capabilities.
How many sterile instruments are in each case?

Each case contains 20 units of the sterile, single-use ConMed Bulb Tip Yankauer Instrument.This quantity provides a convenient supply for surgical settings. Key aspects of the included items are:* Quantity: 20 instruments per case.* Sterility: Each unit is sterile and designed for single-use to ensure optimal infection control.* Tubing: 10 feet (3 meters) of tubing is pre-attached to every instrument for immediate use.

Is a control vent configuration available?

Yes, the ConMed Bulb Tip Yankauer Instrument is offered in two configurations to meet varying surgical requirements:

  • With Control Vent: This option allows surgical staff to manually regulate or temporarily interrupt the suction pressure, providing fine-tuned control over the aspiration flow.
  • Standard (No Control Vent): This configuration provides consistent, continuous suction without the manual regulation feature on the instrument.

Regardless of the option chosen, both instruments feature the specialized bulb tip, a large lumen for rapid, clog-resistant aspiration, a shatter-resistant transparent body for fluid visualization, and 10 feet (3 meters) of pre-attached tubing.

Does the bulb tip reduce tissue grab?

Yes, this instrument is specifically designed for enhanced safety during aspiration. The bulb tip incorporates side eyes intended to minimize the risk of tissue grab when evacuating fluids and debris during open surgery. The instrument is also constructed with a large lumen to provide rapid aspiration while resisting clogging.

Does the transparent design ensure clear fluid visualization?

Yes, the instrument’s body is constructed from transparent plastic. This essential design feature allows clinicians to maintain clear visual monitoring of the contents being aspirated, providing crucial, immediate feedback regarding the fluid and debris during surgical procedures.

Is the Yankauer instrument sterile?

Yes, this is a single-use sterile instrument. This design is crucial for safety, as it effectively eliminates the risk of cross-contamination between procedures.

Do the side eyes prevent tissue grab?

Yes, the instrument includes side eyes which are a critical safety feature. They are specifically engineered to reduce the likelihood of tissue grab during aspiration, ensuring smooth and safer removal of fluid and debris during surgical procedures.

Is the instrument designed to resist clogging?

Yes, the ConMed Bulb Tip Yankauer Instrument is specifically designed for efficient, continuous suction by resisting clogging. It achieves this through its large lumen design, which is engineered to facilitate the rapid aspiration and removal of fluid and debris during open surgical procedures.
