Shiley™ oral-nasal RAE endotracheal tube with TaperGuard™ cuff

The Shiley™ oral-nasal RAE endotracheal tube with TaperGuard™ cuff is ideal for surgical procedures where aspiration is a concern.

Description

Shiley™ oral-nasal RAE endotracheal tubes with TaperGuard™ cuff feature a preformed curve design intended to reduce kinks and disconnects, maintain a patent airway, and remove the circuits and connectors from the surgical field.

In addition, the RAE tube features the TaperGuard™ cuff technology, a low-pressure cuff that exerts 29% less pressure1 on the trachea. Avoiding just one aspiration could save a hospital more than $40,000.2

Features

  • Preformed tube to help reduce the risk of kinking3
  • Improved access to the operative field, as the connections lie outside this area3
  • High-volume, low-pressure TaperGuard™ cuff
  • Specially molded hooded tip with Murphy Eye
  • Tip to tip X-ray line
  • Package sterile
  • Latex-free

 

The Shiley™ oral-nasal RAE endotracheal tube with TaperGuard™ cuff is used in an OR intubation procedure.
