Suction machine:
Definition of Suction Machine:
A suction machine is a
medical device used to remove unwanted substances
such as saliva, mucus, blood, or vomit from a patient’s
airway or surgical site by creating negative pressure. It
helps maintain a clear airway and clean surgical field
during anesthesia and surgery.
Uses of suction machine:
•Suctioning the oropharynx or trachea before, during, or after
intubation.
• Clearing blood or secretions from the surgical field.
• Managing aspiration during general anesthesia.
• Clearing secretions in postoperative care.
• Assisting in resuscitation efforts.
Importance of suction machine during
anaesthesia:
•Maintains Airway Patency: Prevents airway obstruction by clearing
secretions.
•Prevents Aspiration: Removes vomitus or fluids that could enter the lungs.
•Ensures Visibility: Keeps the surgical site free from blood and fluids.
•Emergency Support: Vital during airway emergencies like laryngospasm
or bleeding.
Procedure of suction machine during
anaesthesia:
1. Check Equipment:
Ensure the suction machine is functional and properly assembled.
Attach sterile suction tubing and catheter.
2. Turn On Machine:
Adjust the vacuum pressure as per patient needs (usually 80–120 mmHg for
adults).
3. Insert Suction Catheter:
Gently insert the catheter into the patient’s airway or surgical site.
4. Apply Suction:
Occlude the thumb port intermittently to apply suction (limit
to 10-15 seconds at a time).
5. Withdraw Catheter:
Remove the catheter while continuing suction.
6. Dispose and Clean:
Dispose of catheter if single-use, or sterilize if reusable.
Empty and clean the canister.
Parts of suction machine:
Vacuum Pump – Generates suction power
Collection Canister – Collects the removed fluids
Suction Tubing – Connects the patient to the canister
Vacuum Tubing – Connects the pump to the canister
Bacterial Filter – Prevents contamination
Pressure Regulator – Adjusts suction pressure
Pressure Gauge – Shows the level of suction
Overflow Protection (Float Valve) – Prevents fluid
from entering the pump
Power Source – Electric cord, battery, or manual pump
Types of suction machine:
Manual suction machines
Portable suction machines
Electrical suction machines
Manual suction machines:
These are non-electric, portable, and often used in
emergency situations or when electricity isn’t
available. Medzell says that manual suction
machines are frequently used in emergencies
because they don’t require electricity.
Portable suction machines:
These are battery-powered and designed for mobility,
allowing users to suction on the go. AboutKidsHealth
says that portable suction machines are best for suction
on the go.
Electrical suction machines:
These plug into an electrical outlet and are commonly
found in hospitals and clinics.
