The Medline Vacu-line Suction Aspirator is a portable, AC-powered device to be used on general patient population excluding neonatal due to pressure range, to supply a vacuum source adequate within the stated operating vacuum range, to aspirate fluids from respiratory airway. Intended use in home care or hospital environments.

Medline Vacu-line Suction Aspirator is an AC powered medical suction aspirator that is intended to remove saliva, thick mucus and other secretions from the patient's airway or respiratory system. The device is intended to be used by healthcare facilities and in homecare. The device is small in size, lightweight and easy to carry allowing it to be portable. The main structure of the suction device includes vacuum pump, vacuum gauge, pressure regulating valve, and is to be used in conjunction with accessories like suction tubing, air filters, and canisters (these accessories are outside the scope of this submission). The Medline Vacu-line Suction Aspirator is a non-sterile device and can be used on multiple patients when following the proper cleaning techniques detailed in the instruction for use, but the accessories are all single patient use and should be disposed of properly and in accordance with their respective instructions for use. The device is a high vacuum/low flow with a vacuum gauge of minimum vacuum range 21.15 ± 4.86 kPa to maximum vacuum range 82.84 ± 1.84 kPa, 2.5 grade and a flow rate of ≥14L/min. The power supply for the device is AC 120 voltage (60Hz) and can be used continuously for up to 30 minutes. The device has a sound level of 66.81 ± 1.37 dB in an open atmosphere and 68.42 ± 0.93 dB in a closed atmosphere. The canister bottles are 850cc, single patient use and disposable. This devices uses an Inline Hydrophobic filter that has a pore size of 0.45 microns; the filter blocks bacteria from entering the vacuum and it will prevent liquid from entering the vacuum pump and tubing.
