Shiley Flexible Tracheostomy Tube Cuffless, Reusable Inner Cannula Νο 6 - 6UN75R 

Help Enable Easier Insertion and Removal

• Low profile cuff—A thinner, less bulky cuff reduces insertion force by 39%.

• Beveled tip—A beveled tip on all product configurations eases percutaneous insertion.

May Enhance Patient Fit and Comfort

• Flexible cannula—The outer cannula is flexible enough to conform to the patient’s airway, but rigid enough to maintain airway patency.

• Familiar sizes—The tubes use sizing (I.D., O.D., length and tube curvature) that is substantially equivalent to those used in earlier Shiley™ products.

• Size choices—Additional sizes have been added to improve patient fit when needed.

Weaning

• Increased airflow—Airflow around the outer cannula when the cuff is deflated has increased by an average of 242%

• Work of breathing—Improved airflow may reduce the work of breathing required to speak and wean from a tracheostomy tube trachea, Lung Protection and Weaning

Help Protect the Lungs

• Taper-shaped-cuff—With the TaperGuard™ cuff, the tube reduces fluid leakage by 99%.

Help Reduce Impact on the Trachea

• New material—Shiley™ tracheostomy tubes are now manufactured with a citrate-based plasticizer.

• Reusable inner cannula—May be cleaned and reused up to 29 days for same patient use
