Features

The integrated suction port and lumen featured on Shiley™ flexible evac tracheostomy tubes are positioned close to the cuff and designed to remove any fluid in the subglottic space that is difficult to suction otherwise. Additional product features include:

Thermosensitive transparent outer cannula

  • Thinner, less bulky cuff reduces insertion force by 40% in simulated models2
  • Beveled tip on all product configurations eases percutaneous insertion3
  • Smooth, continuous curvature enables proper positioning
  • Sizing — ID, OD, length, and tube curvature — is comparable to that of earlier Shiley™ products
  • Made of non-DEHP material

TaperGuard™ low pressure, low volume cuff

  • Reduces fluid leakage by 99% compared to legacy Shiley™ tracheostomy products1
  • Low pressure, low volume design applies less lateral wall pressure on trachea in benchtop study4
  • Thinner material enables more even distribution of wall pressure4

May reduce the risk of irritation and skin breakdown

  • Soft, transparent flange material is designed to conform to the patient’s anatomy and may help reduce the risk of skin breakdown5
  • Custom designed flange openings improve airflow to sensitive skin, and are offset to help reduce contact with the patient’s skin
