Intended Use

The Dominant 35 c/i is intended to be used for a variety of suctioning procedures including nasopharyngeal, tracheal, surgical, wound and thoracic drainage (must be used only in combination with a chest drainage unit with a built in flow adjustment valve). The intermittent suction mode is intended to be used for gastrointestinal suction procedures. The pump is highly suitable for gastrointestinal suction procedures and for all routine suctioning procedures involving surgical and bodily fluids, gases, blood, secretions, tissue (including bone) and infectious materials in operating theatres, emergency rooms, physicians offices, at the patients bedside and is also to perform wound and thoracic drainage. A comprehensive range of accessories makes the Dominant 35 c/i ideally suited to a wide range of medical applications.

Device Story

AC-powered suction pump; utilizes piston-cylinder system to generate vacuum for aspiration of fluids, gases, and tissues. Provides constant suction (35 L/min) or intermittent suction (8 L/min; 16s ON/8s OFF). Features vacuum gauge, self-bleeding membrane regulator, and overflow safety device. Operated by clinicians in OR, ER, or bedside via foot switches or panel controls. Jar holder maintains jar 20 cm above patient level. Output is vacuum pressure; healthcare providers monitor via gauge and adjust settings to facilitate drainage or fluid removal. Benefits include effective clearance of surgical/bodily fluids and support for thoracic/gastrointestinal procedures.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence based on technological characteristics and design similarities to predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

AC-powered piston-cylinder suction pump. Includes self-bleeding membrane vacuum regulator, vacuum gauge (kPa/mmHg), and polysulfone safety device with overflow protection. Mobile stand with 10x25mm rails and antistatic castors. Constant mode (35 L/min) and intermittent mode (8 L/min).

Indications for Use

Indicated for aspiration and removal of surgical fluids, tissue (including bone), gases, bodily fluids (including vomit), or infectious materials from wounds, airway, or respiratory support systems. Used for nasopharyngeal, tracheal, surgical, gastrointestinal, wound, and thoracic drainage in constant or intermittent modes. For use in OR, ER, physician offices, or bedside.

#### 4 Description of Device

The Dominant 35 c/i Powered Suction Pump is an advancement of the approved Medela® Basic 30 and Dominant 50 Series of Secretion and Surgical Aspirators, which are all based on the well-proven Medela pistoncylinder system.

The Dominant 35 c/i Powered Suction Pump provides the choice of two suction modes:

- -Constant Suction (c) with a flow rate of 35 liters/min (high flow)
- Intermittent Suction (i) with a flow rate of 8 liters/min (low flow) and default settings of 16 seconds ONTime / 8 seconds OFFTime.

The new Dominant 35 c/i is based on the Dominant 50 and has additionally fixed to it's housing a jar holder which quarantees that the iar is approximately 20 cm above patient level.

The Dominant 35 c/i is an AC-powered aspirator and incorporates an ACmotor with gearbox, pistons and cylinders, an operation panel, a vacuum gauge in kPa and mmHG, a self-bleeding membrane vacuum regulator, a safety device of polysulfone with overflow protection device and connection tubing, an electric cord and an instruction manual.

The standard version includes a mobile stand with fitting rails 10 x 25 mm and four antistatic castors, two with locking device. The internal and external foot "ON/OFF"-switches have been retained unchanged, but please note, that these switches are only active while working in the constant mode!

#### 5 Intended Use of the Device

The Dominant 35 c/i is intended to be used for a variety of suctioning procedures including nasopharyngeal, tracheal, surgical, wound and thoracic drainage (must be used only in combination with a chest drainage unit with a built in flow adjustment valve). The intermittent suction mode is intended to be used for gastrointestinal suction procedures.

The pump is highly suitable for gastrointestinal suction procedures and for all routine suctioning procedures involving surgical and bodily fluids, gases, blood, secretions, tissue (including bone) and infectious materials in operating theatres, emergency rooms, physicians offices, at the patients bedside and is also to perform wound and thoracic drainage. A comprehensive range of accessories makes the Dominant 35 c/i ideally suited to a wide range of medical applications.

The intended uses and the indications of the Medela Dominant 35 c/i powered suction pump, are the same as the intended uses and indications for the predicate devices Medela Basic 30 and Dominant 50 suction pumps (K021368) and/or to the AEROS Moblvac III (K933902).
