Portex Blue Line Ultra Suctionaid Tracheostomy Tube Cuffed

The Portex Blue Line Ultra Suctionaid Tracheostomy Tube Cuffed is a medical device used for patients who require a tracheostomy and need suctioning of secretions from the airway. The tracheostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an opening (stoma) in the neck to allow direct access to the trachea (windpipe).

The Blue Line Ultra Suctionaid Tracheostomy Tube is designed to secure and maintain the stoma and provide an airway for the patient. The tube has a suction lumen that allows for suctioning of secretions without removing the tube, minimizing the risk of trauma and infection associated with repeated tube removals.

The tube also has an inflatable cuff that seals around the trachea to prevent air leaks and aspiration. The cuff can be inflated and deflated as needed to adjust the pressure against the tracheal walls.

The Portex Blue Line Ultra Suctionaid Tracheostomy Tube Cuffed is available in various sizes to fit different patients and has a locking mechanism to prevent accidental dislodgment. The tube also has a low-pressure cuff that minimizes tissue trauma and pressure necrosis.

Overall, the Portex Blue Line Ultra Suctionaid Tracheostomy Tube Cuffed is a safe and effective device that helps maintain an airway for patients with tracheostomies and allows for efficient suctioning of secretions without removing the tube, minimizing the risk of complications.
