Description
Busse Poole Suction Tip is a sterile suction instrument built for clearing large volumes of fluid from abdominal and other body cavities. Its retractable screen keeps the suction openings working in pooled fluid, which is the job this tip pattern exists to do.
- Retractable Screen – The screened sleeve shields the suction ports and can be drawn back when direct suction is wanted.
- Cavity Suctioning – Made for the abdomen and other cavities where irrigation and blood pool during a case.
- Sterile Supply – Supplied sterile and packed 50 per case for the operating room and procedure suites.
- Single Use – A disposable instrument that leaves with the case, with no reprocessing between patients.
High Volume Suction for Cavity Work
Poole tips answer a specific problem in abdominal surgery, where large volumes of blood and irrigation fluid collect in the cavity and a standard tip clogs or grabs tissue. The outer screen on this pattern holds tissue away from the suction ports, so fluid keeps moving while the tip rests in the pool. When the surgeon wants direct suction, the screen retracts and the tip works as an open suction instrument.
Busse supplies the tip sterile and ready for the field, in the same case format used across its suction instrument line. For central supply and OR buyers, the single item number keeps ordering simple, with 50 sterile tips in every case.

Why Choose This Poole Tip?
Abdominal cases need a tip that keeps drawing in pooled fluid instead of stalling on tissue. This sterile Poole pattern covers that role with a screened, retractable design, stocked by its own item number so the OR core can keep it at par.
- Keeps Drawing – The screen holds tissue off the ports, so suction continues in pooled blood and irrigation.
- Two Modes – Screened suction for cavity pools and direct suction with the screen retracted, in one instrument.
- Maker Specification – The configuration and pack count follow the manufacturer’s own catalog listing for item 290.
- At Par Easily – One item number and a 50 count case make par level restocking straightforward.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Poole tip used for?
It is used to suction large volumes of fluid from the abdomen and other body cavities during surgery. The screened design is what separates it from a standard Yankauer tip.
How does the retractable screen help?
The screen covers the suction ports so tissue is not drawn into them while fluid is cleared. It retracts when the surgeon wants direct, unscreened suction from the same instrument.
Is it sterile?
Yes. The tip is supplied sterile and is intended for single use, packed 50 per case.
How is it packed?
Each case holds 50 sterile tips under manufacturer item 290. The case is sold exactly as the manufacturer packs it.
Can it replace a Yankauer tip?
It fills a different role, since it is made for pooled fluid in cavities rather than airway and surface suctioning. Most services stock both patterns for different parts of a case.
