Fuller Trach.Tube Fig.3, 22FG S/P

Clinical Application

This device is used to establish and maintain a secure airway following a surgical or percutaneous tracheostomy. The 22FG lumen provides a defined internal diameter appropriate where a 22 French tube is indicated, supporting mechanical ventilation, tracheal suctioning, and delivery of humidified gases. The design supports bedside care, routine suctioning, and periods of ventilator dependence while providing reliable access to the lower airway.

Design & Configuration

The Figure-3 cannula geometry is a specific Fuller configuration intended to align the cannula with the tracheal axis for stable positioning and ease of care. The shape reduces the likelihood of kinking along the cannula curve and helps maintain lumen patency during patient movement and transport. The configuration also facilitates connection to standard ventilator circuits and suction adapters used in critical care and surgical settings.
