The Sterimed Endotracheal Tube Cuffed (SMD 701C) is a medical device intended for airway management during general anaesthesia, intensive care, and emergency medicine. It is designed to be inserted through the mouth or nose into the trachea to maintain a clear airway and facilitate mechanical ventilation. Made from non-toxic, medical-grade PVC, this tube is designed for short-term use to ensure air can reach the lungs. The inflatable cuff creates a seal against the tracheal wall, which helps prevent the leakage of gases and aspiration.
Made from Medical-Grade Material: The tube is constructed from non-toxic, non-irritant medical-grade PVC that is free from phthalates. It is also thermo-sensitive, softening at body temperature to conform to the patient's anatomy.
High-Volume, Low-Pressure Cuff: Features a cuff that, when inflated, provides a secure seal within the trachea, reducing the risk of pressure on the tracheal wall.
Designed for Patient Comfort: The tube has a smooth inner and outer surface, a polished Murphy eye, and a tapered balloon end to allow for less traumatic intubation and extubation.
Radiopaque Line for Placement: A radio-opaque line runs the length of the tube, allowing for X-ray visualization to confirm correct positioning.
Universal Connector: Equipped with a standard 15mm connector at the proximal end for secure attachment to ventilation circuits.
Q: What is the primary application of the Sterimed Endotracheal Tube?
A: This tube is designed for airway management during general anaesthesia, intensive care, and emergency medical situations to ensure a clear passage for air to reach the lungs and to facilitate mechanical ventilation.
Q: What is the function of the cuff on this endotracheal tube?
A: The inflatable cuff creates a seal against the tracheal wall, which helps in preventing the aspiration of gastric contents into the lungs and ensures that ventilated air is delivered correctly.
Q: Is the Sterimed Endotracheal Tube reusable?
A: No, this product is sterile and intended for single-patient use only to maintain hygiene and prevent cross-contamination.
Q: Who is qualified to insert and manage this medical device?
A: Use of this endotracheal tube is restricted to trained and qualified healthcare professionals, such as anaesthesiologists and critical care personnel, who are skilled in airway management.
Q: What is the significance of the 'Murphy Eye' feature?
A: The Murphy Eye is a small hole at the distal end of the tube that functions as a vent, providing an alternate pathway for gas flow in case the main opening becomes occluded.
Maintains a patent airway for patients who are unable to breathe on their own.
Facilitates mechanical ventilation in settings such as general anaesthesia and intensive care.
The cuffed design helps to protect the lungs from contamination by creating a seal in the trachea.
Aids in providing direct oxygen delivery to the lungs.
This product is intended for use by or on the order of a physician or trained medical professional.
Before use, check the integrity of the cuff by inflating it with a syringe.
Lubricate the tip and cuff of the tube before insertion.
The tube is inserted through the patient's mouth or nose into the trachea.
After intubation, inflate the cuff and secure the tube in place.
Confirm correct placement by auscultation and observation of chest expansion, and if available, with an end-tidal CO2 monitor.
For single-patient use only; do not reprocess or re-sterilize.
Consult a healthcare professional before use.
Do not use if the package is opened or damaged.
Cuff pressure should be monitored after intubation.
Should not be used in patients with severe throat inflammation or neck trauma.
