In the field of medical care, keeping the patient's airway open is a crucial task, especially for those who are unable to cough up sputum effectively on their own. Changfeng single-use sputum aspirators play an irreplaceable role in this process. When phlegm accumulates in the human respiratory tract due to disease or other reasons, it may block the airway, affecting normal respiratory function and leading to a range of serious health problems. For example, patients in the intensive care unit may be unable to cough up phlegm on their own due to coma, respiratory muscle weakness, etc. Post-operative patients may also have difficulty expelling phlegm due to physical weakness. At this time, the sputum aspirator becomes a powerful assistant for medical personnel to clean up the patient's respiratory tract. Changfeng single-use sputum aspirator is widely used in major medical institutions for its convenient, safe and effective features.
The steps of using Changfeng single-use sputum aspirator are as follows:
Firstly, before use, healthcare workers should check whether the packaging of the sputum aspirator is intact and undamaged to ensure that the aspirator is in a sterile state. If the package is broken or expired, the sputum aspirator should be replaced with a new one immediately.
Then, connect the sputum aspirator to the negative pressure suction device. During the connection process, make sure that the connection is tight to avoid air leakage, so as to ensure sufficient negative pressure suction. Generally speaking, Changfeng sputum aspirators are equipped with suitable interfaces that can be easily and quickly connected to conventional negative pressure suction devices.
Next, the appropriate suction tube is selected according to the patient's condition. Changfeng suction devices are usually equipped with different sizes of suction tubes to suit different patient groups such as adults and children. Before inserting the sputum tube, the tube needs to be lubricated, which can be done using sterile saline or special lubricating gel to minimise damage to the respiratory mucosa.
Afterwards, the sputum tube is gently inserted into the patient's mouth or nasal cavity, and slowly penetrated along the respiratory tract until it reaches the site of sputum accumulation. During the insertion process, the action should be gentle and accurate to avoid harming the patient by misoperation. When the suction tube reaches the appropriate position, turn on the negative pressure suction device and suction in the order from deep to shallow. Pay attention to the suction time should not be too long, generally no more than 15 seconds each time, so as not to cause the patient hypoxia.
After completion of sputum suction, slowly pull out the suction tube and turn off the negative pressure suction device. Properly dispose of the used sputum aspirator in accordance with medical waste disposal regulations, as it is a single-use product, repeated use is strictly prohibited to prevent cross-infection.

The correct use of Changfeng single-use sputum aspirator can effectively help patients remove sputum from the respiratory tract, improve breathing conditions, and reduce the risk of complications such as respiratory tract infections. It is of indispensable importance in safeguarding the life and health of patients and improving the quality of medical care, and is a small but crucial component of the modern medical system.
