The Shiley Flexible Tracheostomy Tube with TaperGuard Cuff and Disposable Inner Cannula is a high-quality medical device designed for patients requiring airway management, such as those in hospitals or home care settings.

Product Features & Benefits

This Medtronic Shiley tracheostomy tube features innovative design elements for improved patient outcomes. It reduces insertion force by 39% with a thinner cuff and beveled tip, making it easier to use during procedures.

• Advanced Cuff Technology: The TaperGuard cuff minimizes fluid leakage by 99% and exerts 18.6% less lateral wall pressure on the trachea, reducing the risk of irritation and skin breakdown.
• Comfortable Flange Design: Made from transparent, soft material, the offset flange improves airflow to sensitive skin and helps prevent contact-related issues.
• Improved Airflow: When the cuff is deflated, airflow around the outer cannula increases by an average of 242%, potentially easing breathing efforts and aiding in weaning from the tube.
• Integrated Connector: Features a built-in 15 mm connector for seamless compatibility with ventilation equipment, supporting better mechanical ventilation.
• Versatile Sizing: Available in various sizes (e.g., inner diameters from 6.5mm to 9.5mm) to accommodate different patient needs, maintaining consistency with earlier Shiley products for reliable performance.
