Material
The PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) is
Flexible & Soft: Allows for easier navigation through the natural curves of the airway (nose, pharynx, trachea) with reduced risk of trauma compared to stiffer materials.
Transparent: Enables visualization of the color, consistency, and amount of secretions being suctioned, which is crucial for patient assessment.
Smooth Surface: Minimizes friction during insertion and removal.
