Clinical Application
This tracheostomy tube is intended to provide a secure airway following tracheostomy or tracheotomy procedures. The 6 mm lumen size supports controlled ventilation, endotracheal suctioning, and airway protection in patients requiring a stable tracheal conduit. Its size and configuration are selected when a smaller-diameter tracheal lumen is clinically appropriate.
Design & Configuration
The Figure 2 Krishaber pattern uses a cannula geometry designed to follow the natural axis of the trachea for reliable placement and reduced mucosal contact pressure. This configuration aids in atraumatic insertion and helps maintain stoma alignment during short- and long-term use. The smaller 6 mm lumen reduces dead space while permitting standard tracheostomy care techniques such as suctioning and humidification.
Instrument Specifications
- Pattern: Krishaber, Figure 2
- Size: 6 mm lumen
- Intended use: Post-tracheostomy airway maintenance and ventilation support
- Reusable: Designed for sterilization and repeated clinical use
Material & Construction
Constructed for repeated sterilization and clinical reuse. The design focuses on a smooth internal lumen and atraumatic external profile to facilitate suctioning and tracheal care while minimizing secretion adherence.
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.
