Clinical Application
Designed for placement through a tracheostomy stoma to establish and maintain a secure airway. The large 30 French lumen provides a low-resistance conduit for mechanical ventilation, effective suctioning of secretions, and endoscopic access for bronchoscopy when clinically indicated. Commonly used in adult patients requiring prolonged airway support, upper airway bypass, or frequent pulmonary toilet.
Design & Configuration
The figure‑8 flange delivers a broader surface for external fixation and reduces device rotation at the stoma, improving positional stability during patient movement and care activities. A 30 FG bore increases internal diameter compared with smaller sizes, improving suction efficiency and easing passage of bronchoscopic instruments. The tube configuration supports secure attachment of tracheostomy ties or sutures and ergonomic handling during placement and routine care.
Instrument Specifications
- Instrument type: Tracheostomy tube
- Pattern / model: Cubley
- Configuration: Figure‑8 flange
- Size: 30 FG (30 French)
- Typical surgical use: Airway management via tracheostomy for ventilation, suctioning, and endoscopic access
Material & Construction
Manufactured in medical‑grade materials commonly used for tracheostomy tubes to provide a balance of patient comfort and structural integrity. Construction is optimized for smooth internal lumen geometry to minimize airflow resistance and to facilitate passage of suction catheters and bronchoscopes where required. Specific material composition and available options (e.g., inner cannula, cuffed/uncuffed, fenestration) depend on the OEM configuration and should be confirmed at time of order.
Quality & Compliance
Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
Brand Comparison
Comparable in form and function to equivalent instruments offered by major US medical suppliers.
