The Sterimed Endotracheal Tube Cuffed (SMD 701C) 7.0mm is a medical device intended for airway management. It is used in general anaesthesia, intensive care, and emergency medicine to maintain a clear passage for air to reach the lungs and to facilitate mechanical ventilation. The tube is made from non-toxic, non-irritant medical-grade PVC and is designed for oral or nasal intubation. The cuff, when inflated, creates a seal against the tracheal wall, which helps prevent the leakage of gases and reduces the risk of aspiration.
Cuffed Design: Features a high-volume, low-pressure cuff that provides a secure seal within the trachea with minimal pressure, reducing the risk of trauma. Patient-Conscious Material: Constructed from non-toxic, non-irritant medical-grade PVC that is thermo-sensitive, allowing it to soften at body temperature for enhanced patient comfort. Atraumatic Intubation: Designed with a smooth polished Murphy eye and a tapered distal end to allow for smooth insertion and removal, minimizing discomfort. Kink-Resistant Tube: The tube is designed to resist kinking, which helps in maintaining an uninterrupted airflow. Clear Placement Verification: A radio-opaque line is incorporated into the tube, allowing for clear identification of its position through imaging. Universal Compatibility: Equipped with a standard 15mm connector at the proximal end, ensuring it can be connected to common ventilation equipment.
Q: Is this product intended for professional use only?
A: Yes, this is a medical device designed for airway management and should only be used by qualified healthcare professionals in clinical settings like hospitals and critical care units.
Q: What is the purpose of the cuff on this endotracheal tube?
A: The cuff is an inflatable balloon at the tip that, when inflated inside the trachea, creates a seal to ensure effective ventilation, prevent air leaks, and reduce the risk of aspiration.
Q: What does the 7.0mm size indicate?
A: The 7.0mm refers to the internal diameter of the tube. This size is typically used for adults, but the final selection is made by a healthcare provider based on the patient's specific anatomy and clinical requirements.
Q: Is the endotracheal tube sterile and for single use?
A: Yes, the tube is sterilized using Ethylene Oxide (E.T.O.) and is intended for single-patient use to maintain hygiene and prevent cross-contamination.
Q: How is the correct placement of the tube verified?
A: The tube includes a radio-opaque line that runs along its length, allowing healthcare professionals to verify its position accurately using an X-ray.
Aids in maintaining a patent airway for patients requiring mechanical ventilation or airway support. The cuffed design creates a seal that prevents the leakage of respiratory gases and protects the lungs from aspiration of secretions. Made from bio-compatible, phthalate-free materials to support patient safety. The smooth surface of the tube facilitates easier intubation, extubation, and suctioning procedures.
This product is intended for use by qualified healthcare professionals only. Before intubation, check the integrity of the cuff by inflating it. Thoroughly lubricate the tube and cuff before insertion. The tube is passed through the patient's mouth or nose, through the vocal cords, and into the trachea. Once in position, the cuff is slowly inflated with air to create a seal. Secure the tube in place as per standard medical procedures.
For single-patient use only; do not reuse or re-sterilize. Do not use if the package is opened or damaged. To be used by trained medical personnel. It is advised not to use this tube in procedures involving lasers or in patients with severe throat inflammation or neck trauma. Store in a clean, dry area, and avoid exposure to direct sunlight or UV light.
The product is E.T.O (Ethylene Oxide) sterilized and pyrogen-free. Guaranteed sterile if the package has not been opened or damaged.
