The Shiley™ evac endotracheal tube with SealGuard™ cuff is suitabe for both nasal and oral insertion

Description

Integrated evac technology

Shiley™ evac endotracheal tubes with SealGuard™ cuff offers the same patented TaperGuard™ cuff technology, with an integrated cuff inflation line and integrated suction lumen. The SealGuard™ evac endotracheal tube features an ultra-thin polyurethane cuff that permits lower cuff pressures to maintain proper tracheal seal.1 It also features a smooth Murphy eye for easy insertion and is suitable for both nasal and oral insertion.

The SealGuard™ evac tracheal tube has been proven to reduce microaspirations and thus reduce the incidence of ventilator-associated pnuemonia (VAP).1–4 The tapered shape of the cuff and the polyurethane material used to make the cuff enable this tube to fit snuggly within the tracheal walls.

Features

  • Endotracheal tube with subglottic secretion drainage lumen and suction port
  • Tapered cuff design made from polyurethane material reduces the incidence of folds and channels through which secretions can leak1
  • Reduces ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP)
  • Tip-to-tip X-ray line
  • Hooded tip with Murphy eye
  • Not made with DEHP
