YANKAUER Ø 1.9 mm 27 cm tube: ergonomics and performance for controlled suction
The Frimed YANKAUER Ø 1.9 mm – 27 cm probe is an aspiration and lavage device used in surgical settings, renowned for its precision and manoeuvrability. This specific model is identifiable by its long 27 cm body and ergonomically curved shape, which gives it a firm and comfortable grip and easy access to anatomical cavities even in the most challenging operating conditions.
The diameter of the suction opening is 1.9 mm, ensuring moderate but controlled suction, which is particularly useful in situations requiring finesse and caution. The bulbous tip of the head, with a diameter of 10 mm, allows for uniform suction without excessive localised suction, thus avoiding accidental tissue damage. This precise design makes all the difference in prolonged or repeated procedures.
The probe is made of surgical-grade stainless steel, ensuring robustness, durability and compatibility with standard sterilisation processes. Its one-piece design facilitates maintenance and reduces the risk of cross-contamination.
The curved shape of this probe is not just an aesthetic detail: it is designed to optimise the suction angle without requiring excessive wrist movement, thus reducing operator fatigue and increasing precision. This model stands out from other variants of the same name by its pronounced curvature and wide but narrow tip, making it particularly suitable for procedures where flow control is crucial.
The 27 cm Ø 1.9 mm YANKAUER fits perfectly into standard surgical protocols in ENT, abdominal, gynaecological and neurosurgery. It offers practitioners a reliable, intuitive and effective tool for controlling fluid suction, while ensuring comfort and safety for the patient.
