TICARE® Yankauer suction set is sterile to be used in operating rooms for surgical suctioning. The set is made of medical-grade transparent PVC. It is packaged sterile and intended for single-use.
Splinting fractures, holding gauze in place, stopping or preventing bleeding are other uses. Because of all these uses and possibly more, this bandage is considered a staple in most first aid kits. Triangular bandages are sometimes used to wrap ankles, feet, and legs.
