title: Optimal suction system for dissection work in surgery.
abstract: A new system for improved suction in surgical dissection work is presented, in which the suction tube end has slits. The air suction capacity of the pump is 30 litres a minute, and the maximal vacuum pressure in the systems is limited to -0.3 at by means of a membrane pressure regulator. This system allows a continuous atraumatic suction with adequate suction capacity and convenient operation.
