Product Overview
Medline’s Treated Suction Swabs offer the perfect alternative for cleaning the mouth when a toothbrush is not needed. The Treated Suction Swab connects to Medline’s standard suction tubing and assists with removing secretions from the oral cavity. The foam swab is also treated with a dentifrice to provide additional cleaning power.
In order to reach further into a patient’s mouth for a deeper oral cleaning and to remove secretions at the back of the mouth, the dentifrice-treated swab has an angled head and a thumb port valve that gives the user suction control while cleaning.
Regular cleaning of the oral cavity and teeth with a treated suction swab, or other VAPrevent oral hygiene products from Medline’s portfolio, helps lower the risk of infection and contributes to an overall sense of patient satisfaction and well-being. Utilising this tool promotes safe and consistent oral cleansing practices that can help lower the likelihood of developing ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP), especially in the ICU.
