?:definition
  • Aspirators designed to provide suction for abdominal paracentesis procedures, which involve the evacuation of accumulated ascitic fluid from the area between the abdominal wall and the abdominal organs (i.e., the peritoneal cavity) to the outside of the body. These aspirators typically consist of a reusable portable suction pump designed to withdraw fluid from the peritoneal cavity to a collection container outside the body. These pumps are typically used in combination with single-use procedure kits that include an abdominal access sheath, tubing, and drainage bags. They are used for periodic removal of large volumes (i.e., multiple liters) of ascitic fluid.
