ABSTRACT:
An oropharyngeal suctioning device for evacuation of vomitus from patients having an altered gag reflex using an increased diameter tubing and similarly increased diameter suction tip having an inside diameter of 1/2 inch to 1 inch, which combination provides an evacuation rate of at least 10 times faster than the rate of evacuation using the prior art. The oropharyngeal suctioning device includes a suction tip having an increased diameter ranging between 1/2 inch and one inch, a patient vacuum tubing of an inside diameter between 1/2 inch to one inch and 4 to 10 feet in length, a first adapter for attaching the tubing to the 1 inch inside diameter pour spout of a suction canister and a second adapter for connecting the suction tip and the patient vacuum tubing. A central vacuum line inlet is provided to apply negative pressure to the canister.
