Portex Tracheostomy Tube (All Sizes, Cuffed & Uncuffed) Highlights

  • Tracheostomy Tube Types: Tracheostomy tubes come with or without cuffs. Cuffed tubes are used when a seal is needed to prevent air leakage or aspiration, while uncuffed tubes are for patients who do not require a seal.
  • Material and Sterilization: These tubes are typically made from medical-grade PVC or silicone. They are supplied sterile and are intended for single use to prevent infection.
  • Sizing and Fit: Tracheostomy tubes are available in a wide range of sizes to ensure a proper fit for patients of all ages and anatomies. Correct sizing is crucial for patient comfort and effective ventilation.
  • Purpose of Tracheostomy: Tracheostomy tubes are used to bypass an upper airway obstruction, provide a long-term airway, or facilitate weaning from mechanical ventilation. They are inserted surgically into the trachea.
  • Cuff Inflation and Monitoring: For cuffed tubes, the cuff is inflated with air to create a seal. The pressure within the cuff should be regularly monitored to prevent tracheal wall damage.
