Abstract

See full text

During surgery, debris being cleared from the target anatomy may inadvertently inhibit fluid communication between a suction instrument and a suction source. Therefore, it may be desirable to facilitate access to interior portions of the suction instrument and control of the amount of suction being provided through the suction instrument. The suction instrument can include an elongate cannula with a distal portion configured to be positioned within or adjacent to an anatomical passageway of a patient. The elongate cannula can define a suction lumen that can provide suction at the distal portion. A handle assembly can be associated with the elongate cannula and include a deformable grasping body defining a fluid communication chamber that can provide suction to the suction lumen. The deformable grasping body can elastically deform between relaxed and compressed states to alter the fluid communication between the fluid communication chamber and the suction lumen.
