Catheter
Medical catheter is the fastest growing and most widely used product among medical silicone rubber products. According to the purpose, it can be divided into in vivo and in vitro. In vitro are mainly various types of pump tubes, such as artificial heart-lung machine pump tubes, connecting tubes with various equipment, infusion tubes, etc.; in vivo are all kinds of intubation tubes, catheters, and drainage tubes. The current development trend of medical catheters for human body is miniaturization, thin-walled, multi-lumen and multi-functional. Especially for catheters placed in the body, whether it is used for a long-term or short-term, the advantages of silicone rubber materials and catheters are unmatched by other materials.

Extracranial products
Silicone rubber products used in craniocerebral surgery mainly include: artificial skull, silicon-titanium composite repair material, six devices for hydrocephalus, ventricular drainage tube, artificial meninges, and artificial meninges made of silicone rubber and nylon fabric currently developed in China , can be used to repair traumatic dura mater defects, repair dura mater or dura mater defects caused by resection of tumor bases or infiltrated areas on the dura mater.

ENT products
Silicone rubber products used in ENT include: artificial nose bridge, artificial chin, mandible, artificial ear, artificial larynx, otitis media ventilation tube, lacrimal duct probing device, lacrimal duct plug, nostril stent, snoring stopper, nasal hemostatic air bag, Artificial ventilator wave travel tube, tracheotomy sleeve, etc. At present, silicone rubber has been widely used in plastic surgery and prosthetics, and can repair various parts of the face, internal organs, chest, and joints.

Cardiac Surgery Products
Silicone rubber products used in cardiac surgery mainly include pump tubes for extracorporeal circulation machines, chest drainage tubes, artificial lung silicone membranes, artificial heart spherical mitral valves, etc.

Digestive System Products
Digestive system products: silicone rubber gastric tube, duodenal tube, double-lumen intestinal sleeve, nutrition tube, gastric decompression tube, gastrostomy tube, gastric lavage tube, enema, etc. These products were mainly made of polyvinyl chloride in the past. With the reduction of the production cost of silicone rubber, and the softness and elasticity of silicone rubber products are more ideal, it has begun to replace polyvinyl chloride products in large quantities in China.
