Description
The Tuoren Endotracheal Tube is a medical device intended for establishing and maintaining a patent airway, facilitating the passage of gases to and from the lungs. It is constructed from non-toxic, medical-grade clear PVC that is thermo-sensitive, allowing it to soften at body temperature for enhanced conformity to the patient's airway. This cuffed tube is designed for use in anesthesia, surgery, and other situations requiring mechanical ventilation or airway support.
Made from DEHP-free, medical-grade PVC for biocompatibility. Features a high-volume, low-pressure cuff to provide a secure seal while minimizing pressure on the tracheal wall. Includes a radio-opaque line to facilitate the visualization of the tube's position on an X-ray. Designed with a smooth, thermo-sensitive tube that softens at body temperature for better conformity to the airway. Equipped with a universal 15mm connector for compatibility with standard anesthesia and ventilation equipment. The tube is kink-resistant to ensure the airway remains open during use. Features a polished Murphy eye to reduce the risk of tissue damage during insertion and removal.
Q: What is a cuffed endotracheal tube and what is its primary function?
A: A cuffed endotracheal tube is a medical device inserted into the trachea (windpipe) to maintain an open airway. Its primary function is to facilitate mechanical ventilation and prevent the aspiration of foreign materials into the lungs during surgical procedures or in critical care settings.
Q: What does the size '4.5' signify for this tube?
A: The size '4.5' refers to the internal diameter of the tube, which is 4.5 mm. This specific size is generally categorized for paediatric use.
Q: Is this product intended for multiple uses?
A: No, this endotracheal tube is sterile and designed for single use only. It should be discarded after one procedure to maintain hygiene and avoid the risk of cross-contamination.
Q: What is the purpose of the inflatable cuff?
A: The inflatable cuff is a balloon near the tip of the tube that, when filled with air, creates a seal against the tracheal wall. This high-volume, low-pressure seal directs airflow into the lungs, prevents air leakage, and reduces the risk of aspiration.
Q: Who is qualified to use this medical device?
A: This endotracheal tube is intended for use exclusively by trained and qualified medical professionals, such as anaesthesiologists, critical care physicians, and emergency responders who are proficient in airway management techniques.
