Clinical Application
Provides a secure, patent airway for patients requiring tracheostomy management or intraoperative airway control during ENT, head & neck, and select thoracic procedures. The 13 mm nominal size supports effective ventilation and permits routine suctioning and bronchoscopy through the lumen when clinically indicated. Common clinical uses include postoperative airway maintenance, staged airway reconstruction, and temporary tracheal stenting following tracheostomy.
Design & Configuration
The Fig. 9 Jackson pattern is configured to align the tube with the tracheal axis and to minimize kinking while in situ. The 13 mm designation identifies the tube diameter used to balance low resistance to flow with fit in adult tracheal anatomy. The S/P marking denotes the Fig. 9 configuration variant; the overall geometry supports reliable placement, atraumatic positioning at the stoma, and unobstructed access for suctioning and scope passage when required.
Instrument Specifications

Material & Construction
Constructed for clinical durability and reprocessing. The tube design emphasizes a smooth lumen and atraumatic external profile to help reduce secretion adherence and facilitate suctioning or bronchoscopic access. Intended for repeated sterilization and routine clinical reuse per facility validated protocols.
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.
