Abstract

The suction tip in E.N.T.-service is used not only for suction but also as a mechanical instrument. This puts the strength of the tip to a severe test. Today, only re-usable tips of metal fulfil the demands, but in spite of careful washing debris tends to accumulate within the tip, giving a tendency to blockage after repeated use. To fulfil the demands and to overcome the drawbacks a disposable metal suction tip has been designed.
