What You Need to Know About Suction Machine?

Who needs suctioning?
Suctioning is needed by people who can’t clear fluids or mucus from their airways. It’s commonly used for those with breathing difficulties, medical conditions, or after surgery.

What are the two types of suction?
The two types are manual and electric suction. Manual suction uses hand power, while electric suction machines use a motor to quickly and efficiently remove fluids from the airway.

How long should you use a suction device?
Each suction pass should last no longer than 10–15 seconds. Longer suctioning may reduce oxygen levels, so short, controlled use is safest, especially with children or the elderly.

What is a suction tube used for?
A suction tube connects the suction machine to the catheter. It helps safely carry fluids, like saliva or mucus, away from the patient to keep airways clear.

What is a suction catheter used for?
A suction catheter is a flexible, sterile tube inserted into the mouth, nose, or trachea to remove secretions. It’s essential for keeping the airway open and reducing blockage.

How to choose the correct size suction catheter?
Choose a suction catheter based on patient size and airway. Multiply the tracheostomy tube’s inner diameter by two to get the correct French size for safe, effective suctioning.

Do you lubricate a suction catheter?
Yes, you can use sterile water or saline to moisten the catheter. Lubrication helps ease insertion, reduce discomfort, and protect delicate airway tissues during the suctioning process.

Are suction devices safe for home use?
Yes, when used correctly, portable suction machines are safe at home. Follow manufacturer instructions and hygiene practices to help manage respiratory conditions or sudden airway blockages safely.
