Surgical irrigators are medical devices used in surgical procedures to deliver a controlled flow of fluid to clean and irrigate wounds or surgical sites. They are part of the supply class "Hospital Furniture, Equipment, Utensils, And Supplies" in the supply group "Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies."
Surgical irrigators typically consist of a handheld device with a reservoir for holding the irrigating solution, a nozzle or tip for directing the flow of fluid, and controls for adjusting the flow rate and pressure. They are designed to provide a steady and controlled stream of fluid, such as saline solution or sterile water, to remove debris, bacteria, and other contaminants from the surgical site.
Surgical irrigators are commonly used in various surgical specialties, including orthopedics, general surgery, plastic surgery, and gynecology. They help to maintain a clean and sterile environment during surgery, reduce the risk of infection, and promote optimal wound healing.
When selecting a surgical irrigator, it is important to consider factors such as the capacity of the reservoir, the type of nozzle or tip available, the flow rate and pressure settings, and any additional features or accessories that may be required for specific surgical procedures.
Overall, surgical irrigators play a crucial role in maintaining a clean and sterile surgical environment, ensuring the safety and success of surgical procedures.
