The Sterimed Endotracheal Tube Cuffed (SMD 701C) is a medical device designed for airway management during general anesthesia, intensive care, and emergency situations. It is inserted through the nose or mouth into the trachea to ensure a clear passage for air to reach the lungs. Made from non-toxic, medical-grade PVC, this tube is designed to soften at body temperature for patient comfort. The integrated cuff creates a seal against the tracheal wall, facilitating mechanical ventilation and preventing aspiration.
High-Volume, Low-Pressure Cuff: The cuffed design provides a secure seal within the trachea, preventing air leaks and the aspiration of gastric contents.
Medical-Grade Material: The tube is made from a non-toxic, kink-resistant PVC material that is free from phthalates and coated with a silicone elastomer to reduce friction during intubation.
Radiopaque Line: A full-length radio-opaque line allows for the confirmation of the tube's position through imaging.
Smooth Tip and Murphy Eye: Features a polished Murphy eye and a smooth, rounded tip designed to minimize trauma during insertion.
Universal Connector: Equipped with a standard 15mm connector for compatibility with standard anesthesia and ventilation equipment.
Q: What is a cuffed endotracheal tube used for?
A: A cuffed endotracheal tube is inserted through the mouth or nose into the trachea to maintain a clear airway for breathing. It is used during general anaesthesia, intensive care, and for mechanical ventilation.
Q: What is the function of the cuff?
A: The inflatable cuff at the end of the tube is designed to create a seal against the tracheal wall. This seal prevents air from leaking and stops secretions from entering the lungs, which is particularly important during mechanical ventilation.
Q: What does the 3.5mm size signify?
A: The 3.5mm measurement refers to the internal diameter of the tube. The selection of the appropriate tube size is based on the patient's anatomical requirements, with various sizes available for paediatric and adult patients.
Q: Is this product intended for single use?
A: Yes, this endotracheal tube is supplied sterile and is intended for single-patient use to ensure hygiene and prevent cross-contamination.
Q: Who should use this endotracheal tube?
A: This is a medical device that must be used only by qualified healthcare professionals trained in airway management and intubation procedures in settings like surgery or critical care. It is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for its proper use.
Secures the airway for effective ventilation in critical care and surgical settings.
Reduces the risk of aspiration by creating a reliable seal in the trachea.
Designed to minimize trauma and irritation to the tracheal tissue during intubation and extubation.
Allows for precise control over ventilation, which is particularly useful during surgical procedures.
Facilitates the delivery of anesthetic gases and oxygen directly to the lungs.
For use by trained medical professionals only. The endotracheal tube is inserted through the patient's mouth or nose into the trachea. Once in position, the cuff is inflated to create a seal against the tracheal wall, enabling mechanical ventilation. The tube's placement can be confirmed by observing the condensation of expired gases and using the radiopaque line for imaging.
This product is intended for single use only and should be handled by qualified healthcare providers.
Consult a healthcare professional before use, especially for patients with pre-existing medical conditions.
Do not use if the packaging is opened or damaged.
Ensure the cuff is properly inflated to avoid air leakage or excessive pressure on the tracheal wall.
The tube's position should be carefully monitored throughout its use.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
The product is sterilized using Ethylene Oxide (E.T.O.) and is pyrogen-free.
Made from implant-tested PVC and is latex-free.
