Subject: type of suction involving nasal sinuses

It does reveal maxillary sinus mucopurulence and I cultured this area of yellow drainage and submitted it for aerobic and anaerobic and fungal cultures. I then suctioned the area with _Venalia _ suction under endoscopic guidance and suctioned all debris from the nose and maxillary sinus.


Thanks for helping.  I've tried Stedman's and google and can't seem to locate it!
