Uterine aspirators are suction machines used in cases where curettage (i.e. to remove tissue by scraping or scooping and periodontitis or abortion procedures) and other bodily fluids are removed from a patient. They are often designed to be portable for use in ambulances and nursing homes, and can run on AC/DC or battery power. These pumps used for pumping or moving fluids typically have an inlet where the fluid enters the pump and an outlet where the fluid comes out. The inlet location is said to be at the suction side of the pump. The outlet location is said to be at the discharge side of the pump. Operation of the pump creates suction (a lower pressure) at the suction side so that fluid can enter the pump through the inlet. Pump operation also causes higher pressure at the discharge sid
