Shiley (NEW CFS) Flexible Adult Tracheostomy Tubes with Reusable Inner Cannula - Cuffless

Shiley flexible adult tracheostomy tubes

Flange 

• Soft recessed flange is designed to reduce contact with the stoma site
• Clear flange allows enhanced visualization of the underlying skin

Material

• Tube cannula is made with a softer material than that used in the earlier generation of Shiley tracheostomy tubes

Cuff

• Low-profile TaperGuard taper-shaped cuff
  Reduces insertion force by 39% compared to the Shiley DCT cuffed tracheostomy tube1
  Exerts 18.6% less lateral wall pressure on the trachea2 than the Shiley DCT tube with a traditional barrel-shaped cuff
  Reduces fluid leakage by 96% at a lower cuff pressure versus the Shiley DCT tracheostomy tube3

Airflow

• Airflow around the outer cannula when the cuff is deflated has increased by an average of 242% compared to the Shiley DCT tracheostomy tube
• Improved airflow may reduce the work of breathing required to speak and wean from a tracheostomy tube

Sizing

• Expanded color-coded Shiley Jackson sizing to include 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Connector

• Integrated 15-mm connector enables ventilation with or without an inner cannula
