Covidien 3.0PED - Shiley Pediatric Tracheostomy Tubes
3.0 PED Shiley Pediatric Tracheostomy Tube, Cuffless, Size 3, 3.0 mm ID x 4.5 mm OD x 39 mm Length
Shiley neonatal and pediatric tracheostomy solutions incorporate a wide range of simple and smart design advances to improve the healthcare experience for both patients and clinicians.
These clinician-inspired solutions include:
- Flange distinction for neonatal or pediatric patients
- A unique pediatric cuff design
- Comfort recess on the bottom of the connector to help reduce inferior stoma irritation
- Transparent soft flange that supports patient comfort and visualization of the skin below
- Softer material and expanded size options, compared to previous Shiley tracheostomy products
Shiley neonatal and paediatric tracheostomy tubes offer these enhanced features:
- DEHP free
- Clear flange for easy visualization of the stoma site
- Recessed flange designed to help reduce skin contact
- Trach tie recess on flange
- Flange variation may help improve fit for neonatal and paediatric patients
- The low-profile, low-pressure TaperGuard cuff
Features
Non-DEHP material
Shiley tracheostomy solutions meet the latest safety standards*, offering tubes that are manufactured with a non-DEHP plasticizer material.
Soft, clear neck flange
The Shiley tube's transparent flange allows for enhanced visualization of the underlying skin and stoma site.
Varying flange angles
Shiley tracheostomy solutions are manufactured with varying flange angles to help provide a better fit for infants and children as they grow.
Comfort recess
Shiley tracheostomy tubes include a comfort recess designed to help reduce pressure on the patients skin.
Tape tie recess
The flange on a Shiley tracheostomy tube includes a recess to make insertion of a tape tie or tracheostomy tube holder simple and to reduce contact with the patient's skin.
TaperGuard low-profile, low-pressure cuff
- Provides sealing through a low-profile (low-volume), low-pressure air-filled cuff.
- Reduces removal force by 58.3% compared to traditional high volume low pressure cuffs, thereby reducing the potential for stoma irritation during removal.
- Reduces fluid leakage by an average of 94%, in comparison to the predicate Shiley device at 20% lower intracuff pressure than predicate Shiley device.
Child-safe pilot balloon
Includes plastic housing around the tip of the inflation lumen that prevents the ability of placing the inflation lumen into the 15 mm connector of the tracheostomy tube, which could obstruct airflow.
