Suction-Easy™ Instructions For Use

The Suction Easy™ is a small, manual suction device for cleaning vomitus, mucus, blood and other foreign substances from the upper airway.  It is easy to carry and store.  Because it is manually operated, it requires little maintenance and is not dependent on batteries or other external power sources.  It can be stored for extended periods of time and is instantly ready for use.

CAUTION:  Suction Easy™ should be used only by persons who have received approved training in suctioning the oral airway.  Improper use could result in injury to the patient.  It is designed for use on adults and is not designed to be used on infants or children under the age of 8.

CONSTRUCTION:  Suction Easy™ is made of a rigid plastic suction tube, a suction bulb and a collection bag for aspirated liquids.  One-way valves prevent the backflow of aspirated contents.  

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE: 
Remove Suction Easy from the package.  Pull the suction tube out until it stops.
Clean any obvious foreign substances from the patient's airway by using finger sweeps.
Grasp the suction bulb between your thumb and forefingers.
Squeeze the suction bulb.
Insert the suction tube into the back of the patient's throat.  Do NOT insert farther than you can see.
Release the suction bulb to remove the liquid from the patient's throat.
Continue to squeeze and release the bulb to remove additional liquid.
After the airway is cleared it may be necessary to take other steps to clear and maintain the airway.

CAUTION:  Overfilling of the collection bag will result in fluid being released from the air vent.
