The Polymed Endotracheal Tube Cuffed is a medical device designed for airway management during procedures requiring mechanical ventilation or anesthesia. It features an inflatable cuff that creates a seal within the trachea, which helps to prevent air leakage and the aspiration of fluids. This tube is constructed from a thermo-sensitive, medical-grade material that softens at body temperature to conform to the patient's airway anatomy. The design is intended to facilitate secure airway access for both surgical and critical care scenarios.
High-Volume, Low-Pressure Cuff: Features a soft cuff that provides a secure seal with the tracheal wall while distributing pressure to reduce the risk of tissue injury.
Atraumatic Tip and Murphy Eye: The distal end has a smoothly polished Murphy eye, which helps to prevent tissue trauma during intubation and extubation and ensures continuous airflow.
Radio-Opaque Line: A line is incorporated along the tube's length to allow for clear visualization and accurate placement confirmation via X-ray.
Standard 15mm Connector: Equipped with a universal connector at the proximal end for secure attachment to standard ventilation and anesthesia breathing circuits.
Pilot Balloon with Valve: Includes a non-return valve and pilot cuff, allowing clinicians to easily assess the inflation status and pressure of the main cuff.
Q: What is the purpose of the cuff on this endotracheal tube?
A: The cuff is a high-volume, low-pressure inflatable balloon that creates a seal within the trachea. This prevents air leakage during mechanical ventilation and helps to stop the aspiration of fluids or secretions into the lungs.
Q: How can a clinician confirm the tube is placed correctly?
A: The tube includes a radio-opaque line along its length, which allows for clear visualization and confirmation of its placement through an X-ray.
Q: Is this product sterile and can it be reused?
A: The product is supplied sterile in an individually sealed blister pack and is for single use only. It should not be reused or re-sterilized.
Q: What is the 'Murphy eye' feature?
A: The Murphy eye is a smoothly polished opening at the distal end of the tube. It acts as a safety vent to ensure continuous airflow if the main opening becomes obstructed and helps prevent tissue trauma during intubation.
Q: Who is qualified to use this device?
A: This endotracheal tube is intended for use exclusively by trained and qualified medical professionals, such as physicians and respiratory therapists, who are skilled in airway management.
Maintains a secure and open airway for patients undergoing mechanical ventilation or anesthesia.
The cuffed design provides a seal that prevents the aspiration of gastric or oral secretions into the lungs.
Aids in providing ventilation by minimizing air leaks around the tube.
Designed to reduce the risk of trauma to the trachea during intubation and while the tube is in place.
This product is intended for use by trained medical professionals only.
1. Before use, inspect the packaging for sterility and the tube for any damage.
2. Test the cuff and valve for integrity by inflating and deflating the cuff.
3. Intubate the patient following established medical protocols.
4. Once placed, inflate the cuff with the minimum volume of air required to create an adequate seal.
5. Confirm correct tube placement through clinical assessment and, if necessary, with a chest X-ray.
6. Continuously monitor the patient and cuff pressure throughout the duration of intubation.
For single use only; do not reuse or re-sterilize.
To be used exclusively by qualified healthcare practitioners trained in airway management techniques.
Prolonged over-inflation of the cuff can lead to tracheal tissue injury; cuff pressure should be monitored regularly.
Consult a healthcare professional to determine the appropriate tube size for the patient.
If you have any questions or concerns, consult your respiratory therapy team or attending physician.
The tube is made from non-toxic, medical-grade PVC material.
It is supplied sterile in an individually sealed, peelable blister pack.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
