Facilities delivering critical care need a medical suction device for every bed and every ventilator. Expand airway suction capacity quickly and safely with endotracheal suction solutions that can be used across a variety of care settings. The following medical suction systems include virus filters and disposable fluid collection to reduce risk of cross-contamination and help limit the spread of COVID-19 and other viral infections.
Fighting the pandemic takes preparation. Ensuring surge capacity to deliver care for infected and uninfected patients will be critical should future waves of COVID-19 infections arise, as expected.1,2
COVID-19 patients require frequent endotracheal suction to remove fluid secretions from their lungs and airways.
In a time of fear of viral spread and the requirement for a fast response, mobile medical vacuum delivers.
Compared to central vacuum systems, mobile suction pumps with filters and accessories help to prevent viral spread in hospitals and care centres
Our Vario, Dominant, and Basic mobile suction solutions support patient care today and tomorrow.
Unlike analogue systems, it reliably regulates the applied pressure at the patient’s chest and digitally (and quietly) monitors critical therapy indicators. Clinical data has demonstrated that Medela’s chest drainage therapy improves outcomes and streamlines the delivery of care.
Chest tube and drainage systems can be used to treat pneumothorax, a rare but serious complication that can result from highpressure mechanical ventilation, often required for COVID-19 patients.

Thopaz and Thopaz+ provide safer patient care while minimizing the risk of cross-contamination. The Thopaz canister with integrated filter is proven to effectively retain pathogen-sized particles and hence prevent them from subsequently exiting to the environment via the exhaust.
As hospitals prepare for the new realities of care delivery in the post-COVID-19 world, it is imperative that clinicians have access to flexible solutions that support patient outcomes and offering advanced infection prevention. In this pursuit, Medela's chest drainage systems offer hospitals several key benefits.
