Suction Pumps and Secretion Aspirators for Animals

In veterinary medicine, secretion aspirators are used to remove gases and fluids. For example, if a horse requires surgery due to colic or if an animal's intestines are filled with gas in an emergency, suction pumps can be used for extraction. In this category, you will find secretion aspirators, suction pumps, and related accessories designed for veterinary applications. Before such procedures, treatment areas are often prepared using suitable surface cleaners.

Use of Suction Pumps in Veterinary Medicine

Secretion aspirators and suction pumps use negative pressure to extract fluids and gases. These devices have a collection container where the extracted material is directed via a suction hose. Suction devices are also commonly used to clear airways. Depending on the application, different models are available, including manual suction pumps, stationary suction pumps mounted on equipment carts, and portable electric secretion aspirators powered by rechargeable batteries. Regardless of whether the device is operated electrically or manually, most suction aspirators allow for multiple uses. Electric secretion aspirators feature integrated collection containers that must be cleaned after each use. Special disinfectants are available to remove bacteria and viruses from these containers. Some secretion aspirators are battery-operated, eliminating the need for a nearby power source and allowing for flexible use in various locations. Additionally, there are aspirators with overflow protection, which is particularly beneficial for the nasal mucosa, as it helps prevent irritation during suctioning. For maintaining hygiene during these procedures, veterinary staff typically wear protective gloves. When cleaning devices or surrounding areas, sterile compresses and disposable paper towels are often used. Instruments required during airway or emergency management can be organized safely on instrument trays.
