Clinical Application
Designed for placement through a surgical tracheostomy stoma, this Collin Figure 6 tracheostomy tube provides a secure airway for ventilation, pulmonary toilet, and perioperative airway management. The 10 mm lumen accommodates most adult ventilatory needs while permitting routine suctioning and secretion clearance. Use includes temporary or longer-term tracheostomy care in the operating room, intensive care unit, and step-down settings.
Design & Configuration
The Figure 6 geometry is a standardized intratracheal profile optimized to align with the tracheal axis and sit securely within the stoma, reducing migration and contact pressure on surrounding tissues. The external flange provides a fixation surface to secure the tube to the neck. The S/P designation identifies the manufacturer’s model variant and guides clinicians choosing between available port or configuration options.
