HANDS-FREE SMOKE EVACUATION APPARATUS

摘要

A hands-free apparatus for removing smoke from an operative site is provided. The apparatus includes a tube hav-ing one or more tube holders adapted to maintain the apparatus in communication with the operator's hand. During use, the appa-ratus rests on the operator's hand, without the need for the operator to manipulate the apparatus, and smoke or other atmospheric contaminants are transmitted through the tube into a suctioning device.
