Aspirators, Surgical
Scope of this Product Comparison
This Product Comparison covers surgical aspirators capable of creating a vacuum pressure 500 mm Hg.
Surgical waste disposal systems, which utilize a rover and docker system, and are capable of sterilizing and
disposing of the waste, are not included in this report. Also excluded are centralized suction systems that connect
to standard wall inlets. For information on other types of aspirators, see the following Product Comparisons:

Aspirators, Uterine
Purpose
Most surgical procedures require suctioning to remove blood and
irrigating fluids that accumulate in the operative field and obstruct the
surgeon’s view. Hospitals generally use a central high-flow-rate vacuum
pump that provides vacuum through pipelines to standard wall inlets
throughout the hospital. However, portable or mobile vacuum systems
can be used if there is no central vacuum system or if suctioning is
required in areas that do not have vacuum inlets.
Principles of operation
The basic surgical aspirator consists of a line-powered vacuum pump, a
vacuum regulator and gauge, a collection canister, and an optional
bacterial filter. Plastic tubing connects these components, completing an
open-ended system that continuously draws tissue debris and fluid from the surgical field to the collection
canister. The gauge allows the user to set a safe limit for suctioning, to assess the performance of the vacuum
pump, and to detect leaks or blockages. Units are either portable or mounted on a stand or cart for mobility.
Vacuum pumps
A single- or double-vacuum pump creates suction within the
system. Double-pump systems operate in synchrony, with both
pumps contributing to the suctioning capacity. The three types of
pumps used in surgical aspirators are rotary vane, diaphragm, and
cylinder piston.
In a rotary-vane pump, a rotor is mounted off-center in relation to
the inside diameter of the pump housing (see Figure 1). As the rotor
turns, sliding vanes that fit into notches in the rotor follow the contour

of the housing. Air that is trapped between a set of vanes
is compressed and expelled through the pressure outlet.
As rotation continues, the space between the vanes
expands, and the pressure of the air trapped between the
vanes drops, creating suction. Because of the friction
between the vanes and the chamber wall and the need to
achieve airtight contact, several rotary-vane models use
self-lubricating graphite vanes. Some units require oil for
lubrication and sealing and have reservoirs that need
refilling after a specified number of hours of operation.
In a diaphragm pump, a mechanical drive flexes a
rubber diaphragm back and forth in a chamber, alternately
increasing and decreasing the chamber volume (see Figure
2). As the chamber volume decreases, air is compressed
and directed out through the one-way exhaust valve; as it
increases, a vacuum draws air into the one-way intake valve. Diaphragm pumps do not need a constant supply of
oil, and only the motor requires lubrication. Some diaphragm pumps require no lubrication.
Surgical aspirators using pistons to create suction operate similarly to diaphragm pumps; however, the pistons
slide in a reciprocating motion within the pump cylinder to alternately increase and decrease chamber volume
and pressure. One-way valves respond similarly to the pressure differences to draw air from the patient end of
the tubing.
Collection canisters
Aspirate passes through the tubing and into the collection canister. The typical collection canister is plastic
with a removable plastic lid that includes a vacuum port with a filter, a patient port to which a suction tube is
connected, and a shutoff valve to automatically close the vacuum port. Manufacturers supply reusable or
disposable canisters and plastic bag liners for reusable canisters. To save time and prevent cross-contamination
among patients and hospital personnel, ports of filled disposable canisters are capped, and the canister andcontents are discarded together.
When large volumes of tissue debris and fluid are removed, aspirate can quickly accumulate in the canister. As
a result, most surgical aspirators use two collection canisters connected in series. The second canister, called a
“trap,” collects the overflow from the first canister,
allowing the operator to postpone emptying it in response
to the rising level of aspirate.
Most surgical aspirators have an overflow-protection
assembly in the cap of the second canister that prevents
large amounts of fluid from overflowing into the pump
and valves. Some units feature a third canister to collect
overflow. Most surgical aspirators use a float mechanismas overflow protection. As aspirate collects in the second
canister, a ball or other mechanical device floats to the top,
covering the opening leading to the suction source and
cutting off suction, thereby alerting the user to the full
collection canister. This overflow mechanism cannot be
totally relied upon to prevent pump contamination; often,
some fluid passes through the tubing to the pump before
the float blocks the opening. As a result, most aspirators

also include a disposable in-line hydrophobic filter between the trap canister and the pump. This filter prevents
fluid or aerosol contaminants from flowing back into the vacuum pump; it can be reused several times, provided
that no overflow has occurred. Although most units have these overflow-protection features, the user should
check the collection canisters frequently and not allow them to fill above the caution line.
Reported problems
Factors affecting pump operation can reduce aspiration capability. Aspirate that overflows beyond the second
canister and filter can enter the pump and clog the valves; a clogged pump can jam and be difficult to restart. A
pump containing aspirated fluid can also be a source of contamination.
Purchase considerations
ECRI Institute recommendations
Included in the accompanying comparison chart are ECRI Institute’s recommendations for minimum
performance requirements for surgical aspirators.
Surgical aspirators should provide moderate to high vacuum and flow rates and suction of at least 500 mm Hgat maximum settings to remove tenacious materials but should also allow lower vacuum levels to help prevent
tissue damage. Vacuum gauges and vacuum-limiting devices (e.g., regulators) are required to aid clinicians in
applying appropriate and safe suction levels, and the former should be both accurate and easy to read. Collection
canisters—whether disposable or reusable—should have a total capacity of at least 2 liters (2,000 milliliters or
cubic centimeters). The aspirator should prevent overflow of aspirated material, which may clog the aspirator and
should be considered infectious. All controls and connections should be clearly labeled, and the device should be
quiet so that it does not interfere with communication among clinicians.
Other considerations
The aspirator should be easy and intuitive to turn on, adjust, and operate. It should provide an appropriate
vacuum limit and free airflow capability. Surgical aspirators typically have vacuum limits of 500 mm Hg andfree airflow capabilities of 25 to 40 L/min. (Free airflow has been defined as the maximum flow of air into the
aspirator with no restriction at the intake.)
If reusable canisters are used, emptying and exchanging the canisters should be uncomplicated and without
significant risk of instrument or operator contamination. Reusable containers are less common because of the risk
of cross-contamination; reusable containers sometimes include disposable liners that minimize this risk.
Discarding disposable canisters and their contents should be easy, with minimal risk of spills or contamination.
The cost of disposables should be weighed against the cost, time, and infection risks associated with the
disposal of infectious waste and disinfection of reusables. Most units with disposable containers can accept
alternate manufacturers’ containers. These standard containers may be more convenient to order and offer the
user a choice of suppliers. However, installed filters supplied with the canisters will differ; some may severely
limit airflow rates.
Cost containment
Because surgical aspirators entail ongoing operational costs, the initial acquisition price does not accurately
reflect the total cost of ownership. Therefore, a purchase decision should be based on issues such as life-cycle cost
(LCC), discount rates and non-price-related benefits offered by the supplier, and standardization with existing
equipment in the department or hospital (i.e., purchasing all aspirators and/or collection canisters from one
supplier).

An LCC analysis can be used to compare high-cost alternatives and/or to determine the positive or negative
economic value of a single alternative. Because it examines the cash-flow impact of initial acquisition costs and
operating costs over a period of time, LCC analysis is most useful for comparing alternatives with different cash
flows and for revealing the total costs of equipment ownership. One LCC technique—present value (PV)
analysis—is especially useful because it accounts for inflation and for the time value of money (i.e., money
received today is worth more than money received at a later date). Conducting a PV/LCC analysis often
demonstrates that the cost of ownership includes more than just the initial acquisition cost and that a small
increase in initial acquisition cost may produce significant savings in long-term operating costs. The PV is
calculated using the annual cash outflow, the dollar discount factor (the cost of capital), and the lifetime of the
equipment (in years) in a mathematical equation.
The following represents a sample seven-year PV/LCC analysis for a surgical aspirator.
Present Value/Li fe-Cycle Cost An alysis
Assumptions
Operating costs are considered for years 1 through 7.
Dollar discount factor is 6.25%.
730 procedures are performed per year with single-use disposable collection containers and PVC
(polyvinyl chloride) tubing.
Capital Costs
Aspirator unit = $1,200
Total Capital Costs = $1,200
Operating Costs
Disposable collection containers = $3,000/year
Disposable tubing = $2,500/yearTotal Operating Costs = $5,500/year
PV = ($36,573)
Other costs not included in the above analysis that should be considered for budgetary planning include those
associated with the following:
Other disposables and accessories, such as bacterial filters and optional accessories
Contributions to overhead
As illustrated by the above sample PV/LCC analysis, the initial acquisition cost is only a fraction of the total
cost of operation over seven years. Therefore, rather than making a purchase decision based solely on the
acquisition cost of a surgical aspirator, buyers should consider operating costs over the lifetime of the equipment.
Prices for disposable tubing and catheters vary greatly depending on a number of factors, including type, size,material, manufacturer, and bulk-rate discounts. Many of these disposables can be used with surgical aspirators
from a number of manufacturers; therefore, disposables are usually more relevant to an LCC analysis for an
aspirator than the device itself.

Stage of development
Surgical aspiration is a mature and well-accepted technology, although some new innovations have been
made. Surgical waste disposal systems have been developed that do not utilize canisters at all, making waste
collection easier, safer for healthcare workers, and more cost-effective than previous systems. These systems
consist of a rover (a mobile collection tank) and a docking station (a wall unit). After a surgical procedure, the
rover is transported and connected to the docker, which is capable of sterilizing and disposing of the waste(Williamson 1999).
