Sklar Baron Suction Tube Stylet, 5 French
A 5 French stylet used to clear blockages from a Baron suction tube, keeping suction flow uninterrupted during ENT and microsurgical procedures. It is supplied for repeated sterilization and reuse in hospital and clinic settings.
The Sklar Baron Suction Tube Stylet is a fine wire stylet sized for the 5 French Baron suction tube, with a 7 French version also available, used to clear blood clots, tissue fragments, or other debris that can block the narrow lumen of a fine suction tube during surgery. Suction tubes with a small internal diameter, like those used in ENT and microsurgical procedures, are prone to occlusion when thicker material is aspirated, and having a matched stylet on hand allows the scrub team to quickly restore suction flow without needing to replace the entire tube mid procedure.
This stylet is sized specifically to fit the corresponding French gauge suction tube, ensuring a proper fit that clears the lumen effectively without damaging the tube itself. It is a supporting accessory used alongside Baron suction tubes in ENT and other fine surgical settings, kept in the same instrument tray as the suction tubes it services, and reprocessed between cases following standard sterilization protocols.
