Smiths Medical Profile soft seal cuff endotracheal tube is constructed with soft PVC material to minimize the chance of injury. Strong yet light-weight cuffed materials lessen the possibility of folding and leakage. The clear, PVC soft seal cuff provides the patient with greater comfort by combining the advantages of the profile cuff design with a bigger cuff resting diameter. When cuff is inflated, a large pilot balloon plainly displays this. A spring-loaded, one-way valve helps maintain the integrity and inflation of the cuff.
Endotracheal tube benefits:
- Minimal contact with the sensitive tracheal mucosa
- Large pilot balloon clearly shows when cuff is inflated
- Helps reduce the risk of trauma during intubation and extubation
- Spring-loaded one-way valve helps with cuff inflation and integrity
- Reduces nitrous oxide permeability for a more stable cuff pressure
