More Information
Summary:A medical aspiration device includes an internal elongated element and a bulbous tip at a distal end of the internal elongated element. Together, the internal elongated element and the bulbous tip may define a disruptor of the medical aspiration device. The medical aspiration device may also include an outer elongated element, or a catheter, that includes a lumen within which the internal elongated element may be disposed and relative to which the bulbous tip may be extended and retracted. Extension and retraction of the bulbous tip may provide control over an aspiration force, or suction, that has been applied through the catheter to a distal tip of the catheter. Extension and retraction of the bulbous tip may disrupt matter to be aspirated by the medical aspiration device in a manner that facilitates aspiration of the matter.
