Clinical Application
This device is designed to provide a stable airway following tracheostomy. The 12 mm size offers a lumen suitable for routine suctioning and airway management in patients requiring tracheostomy care, short- to medium-term ventilation support, or direct access for bronchoscopy and pulmonary toilet. Selection of the 12 mm diameter should be made based on patient anatomy and clinical respiratory needs.
Design & Configuration
The figure-8 neck flange provides two opposing fixation points to secure the device to the neck and reduce rotation or migration. The low-profile external plate helps distribute contact pressure across the tracheostomy site, improving patient comfort and stabilizing the cannula during routine care and transport. The internal lumen geometry and smooth transitions support effective suctioning and reduce sites for secretion accumulation.
