Is the plastic sleeve that's on the outside of the piercing needle the cannula stays in place after the needle is withdrawn and is then used as a guide in order to put the jewelry into place.

A hollow tube which can be inserted into a body cavity to draw off fluid or to introduce medication.

a thin, flexible tube that is inserted into the body to drain fluids. A special type of cannula is used to vacuum the fat in liposuction procedures.

Tubing that provides oxygen near the nose.

a flexible tube with removable trocar that can be inserted into the body e.g. into a blood vessel.

a method of delivering oxygen. A thin, flexible tube is encircled around the baby's face and head and is connected to an oxygen source. A flow meter regulates the amount of oxygen that is given to the baby through the two prongs that extend from the tube into the baby's nostrils.

thin, smooth, blunt, surgical suction rod inserted and used to vacuum the fat layer that lies deep beneath the skin. As it's pushed and pulled through the fat, the cells are broken up and then suctioned out.

A narrow tube inserted into a vein through which fluids can be given and blood taken. Rather more temporary than a central venous catheter.

A hollow tube attached to a high-vacuum device used to remove fat through liposuction. The plastic surgeon manipulates the cannula within the fat layers under the skin, dislodging the fat and "vacuuming" it out.

A sleeve which allows an entry point for surgeons to introduce endoscopic devices into a body cavity.

a straw-like instrument through which the fat is removed, The "business end" of the cannula is near, but not at, its tip. The tip is rounded, blunt, or bullet shaped, and the suction holes are on the side of the shaft near the tip.

a tube with a lumen (channel) that is inserted into a cavity or duct and is often fitted with a trocar during insertion

A tube that is placed in the arm similar to that of a needle. However this can be left in, so blood samples can be taken regularly and easily.

a small plastic tube used to supply extra oxygen through the nose or diagnostic in Sleep disorders. See : Air Transducer Sensor

A fine tube used for internal vein investigations.

A tube (may be plastic or glass) which is inserted into the intravascular compartment or into the body to facilitate administration or withdrawal of gases or liquids.

A tube which can be inserted into a cavity, usually by means of a trocar filling its lumen; after insertion of the cannula, the trocar is withdrawn and the cannula remains as a channel for the transportation of fluids.

Simply a slender tube that can be inserted into a body cavity or duct. During the insertion of the cannula, its lumen (interior) is usually occupied by a trocar, a solid shaft, to stiffen it. The word "cannula" is the diminutive of the Latin "canna" (reed) = a little reed.

A short, soft narrow plastic tube put into a vein and secured there so drugs/fluids/blood etc can be given as required intravenously (IV).

A cannula (plural cannulae) is a flexible tube which when inserted into the body is used either to withdraw fluid or insert medication. Cannulae normally come with a trocar (a sharp pointed needle) attached which allows puncture of the body to get into the intended space. Intravenous cannulae are the most common in hospital use.
