What is an Infant Mucus Extractor?

An infant mucus extractor is a medical device used to obtain mucus specimens for microbiological examination. The extractor consists of a small, funnel-shaped piece of plastic with a narrow opening at one end and a wide opening at the other. The user places their finger over the wide opening, and pulls the mucus up through the narrow opening while suction is applied. This process can be repeated several times until a sufficient amount of mucus has been collected.

How does an Infant Mucus Extractor Work?

An infant mucus extractor is a gadget typically used to obtain mucus specimens for microbiological examination. The device has a flexible tube with a small nozzle at one end and a collection cup at the other. The user places the tube over the child's nose and mouth, and then squeezes the trigger to release the mucus. The collected mucus is then transferred to the cup, where it can be examined for bacteria or other organisms.

What are the Benefits of using an Infant Mucus Extractor?

An infant mucus extractor is a great tool to obtain mucus specimen for microbiological examination. Mucus is a viscous liquid that is produced by the nose, lungs, and other organs in the respiratory system. It helps clear the airways and protect against infections.

Needle Stick Injuries are injuries caused by accidental penetration of the skin by an injection needle. Globally, NSI’s are the most common source of occupational exposures to the blood which result in the transmission of blood-borne infections. Haemodialysis units are the areas where strict infection control policies should be observed, given the potential risk of transmission of blood-borne infection to both staff and patients, if universal safety precautions are not followed. Use large-gauge, hollow-bore, Arteriovenous Fistula Needles (AVFNs) and high-pressure access are unique factors inherent to the Haemodialysis (HD) setting. Dialysis patient population has a higher incidence of hepatitis C (HCV) than the general population (8.4% compared to 1.8%) Haemodialysis Health Care Workers (HCWs) are twice as likely to sustain a high-risk Needle Stick Injury as HCWs in all other settings.
