Shiley™ oral-nasal endotracheal tube

The cuffless Shiley™ oral-nasal endotracheal tubes are DEHP-free and available in a range of sizes, from 2.0 mm to 7.0 mm, including half sizes.

Description

Protecting the smallest patients

The cuffless Shiley™ oral-nasal endotracheal tubes are designed with a number of features that are intended to meet the needs of smaller patients. Available in a wide range of neonatal through pediatric sizes, the Shiley™ oral-nasal endotracheal tube is made with latex-free, non-DEHP PVC material, which softens at body temperature and molds to the airway.

Features

  • Not made with natural rubber latex
  • Made with a non-DEHP plasticizer that does not contain phthalates
  • Wide range of neonatal through pediatric sizes
  • Distal tip reference lines and depth marks assist in proper placement
  • Thin, but strong, tube wall with a large inner diameter for proper ventilation
  • Hooded tip with Murphy eye
  • Full Magill curve to support tube insertion
  • All tubes are delivered sterile packed
  • Suitable for both oral and nasal intubation

Di(2- ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) is a manufactured chemical commonly added to plastics to make them flexible.1 Children absorb greater amounts ― and metabolize and retain larger amounts ― of MEHP, the toxic metabolite of DEHP.1

Because children may be more sensitive to the adverse effects of DEHP compared to adults, DEHP exposure may negatively impact pediatric patients in the following ways:1

  • Contribute to the development of hyaline membrane disease and necrotizing enterocolitis
  • Adversely affect male reproductive tract development
  • Damage the liver and lungs
