Medtronic Mitg - Shiley Hi-Lo - 86451 - Cuffed Endotracheal Tube Shiley Hi-Lo Curved 7.5 mm Adult Murphy Eye
The Medtronic Shiley Hi-Lo Cuffed Endotracheal Tube is designed for secure and reliable airway management in adult patients. This tube features a high-volume, low-pressure cuff to minimize tracheal wall pressure and reduce the risk of mucosal injury. The Murphy Eye provides an additional safety feature by allowing airflow if the distal opening becomes obstructed. The pre-curved design facilitates easier insertion and optimal positioning.
Key Features:
- High-volume, low-pressure cuff for reduced tracheal wall pressure and improved patient safety.
- Murphy Eye ensures continuous ventilation in case of distal obstruction.
- Pre-curved anatomical design for easier insertion and placement.
- Radiopaque line for clear visibility under X-ray.
- Standard 15 mm connector for compatibility with ventilation equipment.
- Size: 7.5 mm inner diameter, suitable for adult patients.
Specifications:
- Material: Medical-grade PVC.
- Cuff Type: High-volume, low-pressure.
- Length: Standard adult size.
- Connector: 15 mm ISO standard.
- Sterile: Single-use, individually packaged.
Suggested Use:
This endotracheal tube is ideal for general anesthesia, emergency intubation, or prolonged mechanical ventilation in adult patients. Ensure proper cuff inflation to achieve an effective seal while monitoring cuff pressure to prevent tracheal damage. Verify tube placement using clinical assessment and radiographic confirmation.
For optimal performance, follow institutional guidelines for intubation and airway management.
