FAQs

What are suction canisters, and how do they work?
Suction canisters are containers used to collect and dispose of bodily fluids and other waste materials during suctioning procedures. They work by creating a vacuum that draws the fluids through a suction catheter or device and into the canister, where they are contained until disposal.

What are the differences between disposable and reusable suction canisters?
Disposable suction canisters are designed for one-time use and come preassembled with filters and other components. They are convenient and reduce the risk of contamination but may be more costly in the long run. Reusable suction canisters are designed to be cleaned and sterilized between uses, making them more eco-friendly and cost-effective but requiring more maintenance and care.

How do I clean and disinfect suction canisters?
To clean and disinfect suction canisters, first, remove any remaining fluids and debris and disassemble the canister as needed. Then, wash the components with soap and water, rinse thoroughly, and soak in a disinfectant solution for the recommended time. Rinse again and air-dry the components before reassembling them.

What are the safety considerations when using suction canisters?
Using suction canisters involves some safety considerations, such as wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), following the manufacturer's instructions, and avoiding overfilling or puncturing the canister. It's also important to dispose of the suction canisters properly, following the local regulations and guidelines for medical waste management.
