Description
This Tuoren Endotracheal Tube is a preformed nasal tube designed to establish and maintain a patient's airway during medical procedures. Its specific "North Polar" shape directs the tube over the patient's forehead, which is particularly useful in keeping the surgical field unobstructed during oral and maxillofacial surgeries. Made from a soft, thermosensitive PVC material, it is designed to conform to the patient's anatomy, facilitating placement and enhancing comfort. The tube is intended for single use by medical professionals.
Preformed Nasal Design: The tube is specifically shaped for nasal intubation, directing it away from the surgical field for procedures involving the face and mouth. Thermosensitive PVC Material: Constructed from medical-grade PVC that softens at body temperature to conform to the natural contours of the patient's airway. Atraumatic Tip: Features a smooth, rounded bull-nose tip designed for gentle and smooth insertion, reducing the potential for tissue injury. High-Volume, Low-Pressure Cuff: The cuffed version incorporates a soft, thin-walled cuff that provides a secure seal with low pressure, minimizing trauma to the trachea. Radiopaque Line: A full-length X-ray opaque line allows for clear visualization to confirm the correct placement of the tube after intubation.
Q: What is a Nasal North Polar Endotracheal Tube?
A: A Nasal North Polar Endotracheal Tube is a preformed tube specifically designed for nasal intubation. Its shape helps to keep the breathing circuit from obstructing the surgical area, which is particularly useful during certain facial or nasal surgeries.
Q: What material is this tube made from?
A: This endotracheal tube is constructed from medical-grade, thermosensitive PVC (polyvinyl chloride) that is non-toxic and designed to soften at body temperature for anatomical adaptation.
Q: Is this product intended for single use?
A: Yes, this endotracheal tube is sterile, pyrogen-free, and intended for single-patient use to maintain hygiene and prevent cross-contamination. It should only be used by qualified medical professionals.
Q: What are some features of this endotracheal tube?
A: It features a rounded, soft tip for gentle intubation, a transparent tube to allow for condensation identification, and may come with a high-volume, low-pressure cuff to seal the airway.
Q: Who should use this endotracheal tube?
A: This is a medical device intended for use by trained and qualified healthcare professionals, such as anesthesiologists, for airway management during medical procedures.

Key Benefits
Facilitates airway management, particularly during nasal intubation for oral and facial surgeries. The preformed shape helps to reduce kinking and keeps the breathing circuit out of the surgical area. Designed with a soft material and a smooth tip to allow for gentle insertion and reduce the risk of injury to mucosal tissue. The thermosensitive material adapts to the body's curvatures, providing a more anatomical fit. Includes a radiopaque line for X-ray verification of placement, contributing to patient safety.

Direction for Use/Dosage
To be used only by trained and qualified medical professionals for nasal endotracheal intubation. Select the appropriate tube size based on the patient's anatomy and clinical requirements. Lubricate the tube and cuff before insertion. Gently insert the tube through the nostril into the trachea. Confirm correct placement through clinical assessment and visualization with an X-ray. Inflate the cuff using the pilot balloon, ensuring an adequate seal at a low pressure. Secure the tube in place and connect it to the ventilation circuit.
