Suction regulators play a vital part in medical management, from removing hemorrhages in an emergency to maintaining an appropriate vacuum for gastrointestinal secretions, appearing in nearly every patient care area of the hospital. They convert the facility's central gas system to a reduced level safe for patient use, limiting the total pressure generated by the primary vacuum system to a level appropriate for surgical applications and waste gas disposal.
