bulb syringe
Squeeze-and-release aspirator
A bulb syringe is a squeezable rubber or plastic bulb attached to a narrow tip, used to draw in and expel liquid or air.
In medicine, it clears mucus from infants' noses or irrigates ears and wounds.
The same design appears in kitchen basters and chemistry labs.
The nurse used a bulb syringe to suction the baby's airways.
