Description
The Tuoren Cuffed Tracheostomy Tube is a medical device designed to establish an artificial airway for patients who require long-term ventilation or have an upper respiratory tract obstruction. It features a balloon cuff at its lower end that, when inflated, creates an airtight seal within the trachea. This seal directs airflow through the tube, facilitates positive pressure ventilation, and helps reduce the risk of aspiration. The tube is made from thermosensitive material that softens at body temperature for patient comfort.
High-Volume, Low-Pressure Cuff: This tube features a cuff that provides a secure seal to direct airflow and reduce the risk of aspiration while minimizing pressure on the tracheal wall.
Thermosensitive Material: The tube is constructed from material that is firm enough for insertion but softens at body temperature to conform to the patient's anatomy, enhancing comfort.
Provided with Obturator: An obturator with a rounded tip is included to add rigidity and ease insertion, aiming to reduce trauma during the procedure.
Standard Connector: It is equipped with a 15-mm connector, allowing for attachment to standard ventilation and anesthesia equipment.
Neck Flange for Stability: A flange helps to secure the tube's position against the neck, providing stability.
Q: What is the primary purpose of the cuff on this tracheostomy tube?
A: The cuff is a balloon at the lower end of the tube that inflates to create an airtight seal in the trachea. This seal helps direct airflow through the tube, facilitates positive pressure ventilation, and reduces the risk of aspiration.
Q: What does the 'Size 6.0' indicate?
A: The 'Size 6.0' refers to the inner diameter of the tube, which is 6.0 mm. This measurement is crucial for selecting the appropriate tube for a patient's anatomy.
Q: Is this tracheostomy tube intended for single or multiple uses?
A: This product is designed for single-patient use only and is sterilized with ethylene oxide. It should not be reused.
Q: What material is the tube made from?
A: The tube is typically made from medical-grade, thermosensitive PVC, which softens at body temperature to conform to the patient's anatomy. Some versions may also be made of silicon.
Q: Who should perform the insertion and management of this device?
A: The insertion and management of a tracheostomy tube should only be performed by qualified healthcare professionals in a clinical setting. It is used for patients who need an artificial airway for anesthesia, artificial ventilation, or other assisted breathing support.

Direction for Use/Dosage
This product must be used by a qualified healthcare professional.
Before use, check the integrity of the cuff by inflating it.
Lubricate the tip of the tube and obturator before insertion to avoid injury.
With the patient positioned correctly, the old tube is removed and the new tube with the obturator is inserted into the stoma in a smooth, curving motion.
Once the tube is in place, the obturator must be removed immediately to allow the patient to breathe.
If the tube is cuffed, inflate the cuff as per medical instruction.
Secure the tube in place using the neck ties, ensuring they are not too tight.

Safety Information/Precaution
For use by trained medical personnel only.
Always ensure the obturator is removed immediately after tube insertion to enable breathing.
Incorrect placement, such as into the tissues of the neck instead of the trachea, can lead to serious breathing complications.
Regularly check that the tube is securely fixed to prevent it from coming out.
If the tube has a cuff, the pressure should be monitored to avoid damage to the trachea.
Do not use if the packaging is damaged or the product appears compromised.
This is a single-use, sterile product.
Consult a healthcare professional for any concerns or before making any changes to tracheostomy care.
