Medi-Vac(TM) Flex Advantage(TM) Suction Canister Liner, Material Numbers: a) REF 6561-910C b) REF 6561-916K c) REF 6561-920C To remove blood and/or body fluids. These fluids may be suctioned during surgical procedures or other applications requiring the removal of built up fluids. The suction canisters are used in operating rooms but are also used outside the surgical field as well as post-operatively within patient suites.

Sources of vacuum range from wall suction (central vacuum piped throughout the healthcare facility) to liposuction devices (portable suction pumps).
