Description
The Tuoren Endotracheal Tube is a medical device used for establishing and maintaining a patent airway, particularly during anesthesia and in critical care settings. This cuffed tube, with an internal diameter of 7.5 mm, is designed for adult patients. The inflatable cuff creates a seal against the tracheal wall, which helps in delivering precise ventilation, preventing air leaks, and reducing the risk of aspiration of gastric contents. Made from medical-grade, non-toxic PVC, the tube is designed to be flexible and adapt to the patient's anatomy.
High-Volume, Low-Pressure Cuff: The cuff is designed to seal the airway with minimal pressure on the tracheal wall, reducing the risk of tissue compression.
Medical-Grade PVC Material: The tube is constructed from transparent, non-toxic PVC and is latex-free, with a flexible body that can be reshaped as needed.
Radiopaque Line: A line that is visible on X-rays runs through the length of the tube, allowing for confirmation of its exact placement.
Smooth Tip and Murphy Eye: Features a gently rounded tip for smoother intubation and a Murphy eye to prevent respiratory obstruction.
Standard Connector: Equipped with a 15mm connector that ensures a reliable connection to standard anesthesia and ventilation equipment.
Q: What is the function of the cuff on this endotracheal tube?
A: The high-volume, low-pressure cuff is designed to seal the airway, which facilitates positive pressure ventilation and helps reduce the risk of aspiration.
Q: Is this tube intended for single use?
A: Yes, this endotracheal tube is sterile, pyrogen-free, and designed for single-patient use to minimize the risk of cross-contamination.
Q: What material is the Tuoren endotracheal tube made from?
A: It is constructed from non-toxic, medical-grade PVC that is thermosensitive, meaning it softens at body temperature for better anatomical adaptation. It is also DEHP-free and not made with natural rubber latex.
Q: How is the correct placement of the tube verified?
A: The tube includes a radio-opaque line that allows for visualization on an X-ray to help confirm the exact location of the tube after intubation.
Q: Who should perform the endotracheal intubation?
A: Endotracheal intubation is a medical procedure that must be performed by a trained healthcare provider. It is used in situations like respiratory failure, before surgery, or to protect the airway. It is advisable to consult a healthcare professional regarding its use.

Key Benefits
Secures the Airway: Provides a clear and secure passage for air, which is crucial for patients under general anesthesia or those requiring mechanical ventilation.
Prevents Aspiration: The inflatable cuff effectively seals the trachea, which helps to prevent foreign materials from entering the lungs.
Facilitates Controlled Ventilation: Allows for precise control over ventilation by preventing air leaks, ensuring the patient receives the intended volume of air and anesthetic gases.
Reduces Need for Tube Exchange: A proper seal minimizes the chances of excessive air leaks, which can reduce the necessity of re-intubation.
Secures the Airway: Provides a clear and secure passage for air, which is crucial for patients under general anesthesia or those requiring mechanical ventilation.

Direction for Use/Dosage
This product is intended for use by qualified medical professionals trained in airway management.
The appropriate tube size should be selected based on the patient's anatomy and clinical condition.
Before insertion, the integrity of the cuff and inflation system should be checked.
After intubation, the cuff should be inflated with the minimum volume of air required to create an effective seal.
Cuff pressure should be monitored regularly to avoid over-inflation and potential airway trauma.
The tube's position should be confirmed, often with the aid of the radiopaque line and clinical assessment.

Safety Information/Precaution
For single use only. Do not resterilize or reuse, as this can lead to cross-contamination.
To be used exclusively by trained healthcare providers in a clinical setting.
Consult a healthcare professional before use, especially for patients with pre-existing respiratory conditions.
Over-inflation of the cuff can lead to mucosal ischemia and other airway injuries; cuff pressure must be monitored.
Incorrect sizing or placement can cause significant complications.
Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
