Headstar handheld suction unit is manually powered and is designed to be operated by one person unaided for clearing a patient's airway at home or for field use where there is no electrical power source. It creates negative pressure (vacuum) to draw fluids via disposable tubing which is connected to the collection canister.

To ensure that fluids will not overflow, we've designed a canister with full-stop protection for our selected handheld suction units, please refer to the table below.
