DeBakey Suction Tube

Description

DeBakey Suction Tube

The DeBakey suction tube keeps the cardiovascular field clear of blood and fluid. It comes in 27.5 cm and 28 cm lengths for cardiac and vascular sets.

Clear view, fewer pauses

Blood in the field hides the structures a surgeon needs to see. So steady suction keeps work moving. Also, an assistant can position the tube while the surgeon sutures.

Length

At 27.5 or 28 cm, the tube reaches into the chest with room to spare. Meanwhile, the hand stays clear of the field. That balance suits most cardiac cases.

DeBakey or Cooley

Our Cooley pattern offers a choice of diameters. By contrast, the DeBakey suction tube comes in two close lengths. Some teams keep one of each so surgeons can pick by preference.

Before the case

Look through the lumen for blockage before the tray goes out. Next, connect it and confirm strong suction. Plus, keep a spare ready for heavy bleeding.

Reprocessing DeBakey suction tube

Rinse the inside with running water straight after the case. Use a long, narrow brush to clear the whole lumen from end to end. Then dry the tube inside and out before sterilization.
