Description
The Tuoren Endotracheal Tube is a medical device used to establish and maintain a clear airway for patients requiring mechanical ventilation. This particular model is cuffed, meaning it has an inflatable balloon at the end to create a seal within the trachea. This seal directs airflow into the lungs, prevents air leakage, and reduces the risk of aspiration. Made from flexible, medical-grade PVC, the tube is designed to be gentle on delicate mucosal tissue.
High-Volume, Low-Pressure Cuff: The cuffed design ensures an effective seal within the trachea with minimal pressure on the airway walls, enhancing patient safety. Flexible PVC Material: Constructed from non-toxic, kink-resistant medical-grade PVC, the tube is flexible and can be easily reshaped for proper placement. Radiopaque Line: A line that is visible on X-rays runs through the tube, allowing healthcare professionals to verify its exact location after insertion. Smooth, Atraumatic Tip: The tube features a gently rounded tip to allow for smooth and less traumatic intubation and extubation. DEHP-Free Construction: The material is free from DEHP, contributing to higher biosafety for the patient.
Q: What is the Tuoren Cuffed Endotracheal Tube used for?
A: This is a medical device used by healthcare professionals to maintain an open airway for patients during anesthesia or critical care situations, enabling mechanical ventilation.
Q: What does the 'cuffed' feature do?
A: The cuff is an inflatable balloon at the tube's tip that, when inflated inside the trachea, creates a seal. This seal prevents air leakage during ventilation and helps reduce the risk of foreign matter entering the lungs.
Q: Who is this endotracheal tube intended for?
A: The size 5.0 mm internal diameter tube is typically selected by a qualified medical professional based on a patient's anatomy. An age-based formula suggests this size may be appropriate for a child around 4 years old, but the final decision rests with the clinician.
Q: What material is the tube made from?
A: The Tuoren endotracheal tube is made from a transparent, non-toxic, medical-grade PVC and is latex-free. It is also DEHP-free for higher bio-safety.
Q: Is this device intended for single use?
A: Yes, this endotracheal tube is a disposable medical device and should only be used once by a qualified healthcare provider to prevent cross-contamination and ensure patient safety.

Direction for Use/Dosage
This product is intended for use by a qualified medical professional. The endotracheal tube is inserted through the mouth or nose, passing through the vocal folds, with the tip positioned above the carina. Once in place, the cuff is inflated to create a seal within the trachea. The tube's position can be confirmed via X-ray, utilizing the radiopaque line. The standard connector allows for attachment to ventilation equipment.

Safety Information/Precaution
Intubation should only be performed by a competent and trained healthcare provider. It is important to select the appropriate tube size based on the patient's age and physical condition. The cuff pressure should be monitored to avoid potential injury to the tracheal mucosa. Patients with an endotracheal tube are typically unable to speak or eat. Consult a healthcare professional for comprehensive instructions and contraindications before use.
