Fukushima teardrop suction tube 4 French angled working length 180mm

Angled 4Fr Suction for Controlled Access in Surgical Workflows

The Fukushima teardrop suction tube is a 4Fr angled suction instrument designed for removing fluid and maintaining a clearer operative field during surgical procedures. Its angled configuration supports directed access when a straight approach is less convenient, while the 180mm working length provides reach within the operative area. As part of a suction tube setup, it can support practical fluid-management tasks in General Surgery and Neurosurgery without requiring repeated repositioning of the operator’s hand. The teardrop form and fine 4Fr profile are suited to workflows where controlled handling and access around anatomical structures are important.

Use Cases

• Removing pooled fluid during General Surgery procedures as part of routine suction management.
• Supporting fluid removal in Neurosurgery workflows where an angled approach may assist access within the operative field.
• Directing suction through a 4Fr opening when a fine-profile tube is appropriate for the task.
• Using the 180mm working length to reach the intended operative area while maintaining a practical hand position.
• Incorporating angled suction into procedures where instrument access and visualization need to be managed together.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the suction tube according to applicable facility procedures and the relevant instructions for use.
• Inspect the tube before and after use for visible residue, blockage, deformation, or other signs that could affect handling.
• Handle the angled section carefully during cleaning, connection, and storage to help preserve its intended configuration.
• Store the instrument in a clean, protected location after processing.

General use; follow facility protocols.
