A Suction Machine is an elegant equipment for removing liquids or gases by suction, through creating a partial vacuum. Suction Machines are also used to remove substances, secretions, serum, or mucus from the body cavity. A suction machine is also useful when you have a moist cough, or when you are unable to clear secretions from the throat effectively, or when you feel any type of difficulty in breathing. Suction Machines are commonly required for the Tracheostomy patients. Certain suction machines are exclusively used for the oro-pharyngeal suction, for the purpose of sucking out the saliva or phlegm. Using suction machine is traumatic for the patient and therefor, every care and tips given with the machine must be followed.
