PVC Endotracheal Tube Through Nose 5.5mm Oral Endotracheal Intubation

Description:

Preformed Oral Endotracheal Tube Uncuffed is a method of inserting a special endotracheal tube into the trachea or bronchus through the mouth or nasal cavity.

Product composition and function of Preformed Oral Endotracheal Tube Uncuffed:

• Murphy eye incorporated as an additional safety feature.
• Preformed tube helps to reduce the risk of kinking.

The oral endotracheal tube uncuffed is a medical device designed for endotracheal intubation through the oral cavity. It consists of a flexible tube without an inflatable cuff at its distal end. The tube is inserted into the trachea to establish and maintain a clear airway for patients requiring respiratory support or anesthesia.

Features:

Uncuffed Design: The tube lacks an inflatable cuff, making it suitable for short-term intubation or in situations where cuff inflation is not necessary or desirable.

Reinforced Tip: The tip of the tube is reinforced to provide rigidity and facilitate atraumatic insertion into the trachea. The reinforced tip helps prevent kinking or buckling, ensuring smooth passage through the airway.

Radiopaque Marker: The tube features a radiopaque marker along its length, allowing for accurate positioning and visualization under fluoroscopy or X-ray. This aids in confirming proper placement of the tube within the trachea.

Depth Markings: The tube is marked with depth markings to assist in determining the appropriate insertion depth and to ensure the tube is positioned correctly within the trachea.

Benefits:

Atraumatic Insertion: The uncuffed design and reinforced tip facilitate atraumatic insertion, minimizing the risk of injury to the oral mucosa and trachea.

Ease of Removal: The absence of a cuff allows for easier removal of the tube, reducing the risk of complications during extubation.

Reduced Risk of Tracheal Damage: Without an inflatable cuff, the risk of tracheal damage or stenosis is minimized, especially during short-term intubation.

Cost-Effective: Uncuffed endotracheal tubes are generally more cost-effective compared to cuffed tubes.

Indications:

• The oral endotracheal tube uncuffed is indicated for use in various clinical scenarios, including:
• Short-term anesthesia
• Emergency intubation
• Patients with difficult oropharyngeal anatomy
• Patients with increased risk of tracheal stenosis or injury
• Spontaneous breathing trials
   

Contraindications:

The oral endotracheal tube uncuffed may be contraindicated in certain situations, such as:

Patients with a strong gag reflex
Patients with a narrow oropharyngeal airway
Patients with a high risk of aspiration
Patients requiring long-term mechanical ventilation

Preformed Oral Endotracheal Tube Cuffed Application Features:

1. Improved access to the operative field, because the connections lie outside this area.
2. Tip-to-Tip X-ray line allows for safe positioning control.
