ABSTRACT:
A surgical suction device is provided for removing fluid from a wound which device is adapted to be connected to a suction pump by a hose pipe. The device includes a tubular handle and an inner tube extending from one end of said handle. The inner tube is provided with a suction opening at one end and an open tip at its other end. An outer tube surrounds the inner tube to form an annular space therebetween with the inner and outer tubes being movable relative to each other. The outer tube is telescoped over a portion of the handle and includes an aperture normally aligned with an aperture formed in the handle for controlling the suction functions. A plurality of openings is also formed in the space for quickly removing large quantities of fluid from a wound. At one end of the outer tube there is provided a tapered section having a suction opening for contacting the wound and a seat member at its other end. The open tip of the inner tube is movable into and out of contact with the seat member of the tapered section so that when they are in contact, a single tube suction function is obtained, and when they are out of contact, a sump suction function is obtained.
