Hi-vol Lo-pressure Cuffed Tracheal Tubes By C

These tracheal tubes are ideal for oral or nasal intubations for general anesthesia, critical care and long-term applications. A longlength, thin-walled cuff with a large resting volume creates an efficient low-pressure seal by distributing pressure over a maximum surface area. The cuff expands and contracts with the trachea to allow optimum ventilation and help prevent aspiration or tracheal tissue damage. High cuff compliance lies close to tube when deflated and expands easily without herniation allowing for a more efficient visualization of vocal cords during intubation/extubation. Thin cuff conforms to uneven tracheal surfaces to create low pressure seal. The spring-loaded, one-way valve helps ensure cuff inflation and integrity. Clear tube has a smoothly-finished, atraumatic Murphy tip with eye and a full Magill curve to reduce trauma during intubation. The radiopaque line from top to bottom helps verify tip placement. These disposable tubes are individually packaged sterile and for single patient use. Tubes are ethylene oxide gas sterilized and meet implant test per USP. DEHP- and latex-free.
