MICROCUFF* ENDOTRACHEAL TUBES

REVOLUTIONARY CUFF TECHNOLOGY: PROVEN TO REDUCE LEAKAGE AND THE RISK OF TRACHEAL TRAUMA

MICROCUFF* Pediatric Endotracheal Tubes, designed specifically for the paediatric anatomy, offer the advantages of a cuffed tube, while reducing re-intubation rates and tracheal trauma.2

MICROCUFF* Adult Endotracheal Tubes feature an advanced micro-thin polyurethane cuff, virtually eliminating the formation of channels typically found in PVC cuffs. This provides a superior tracheal seal proven to reduce leakage of potentially infectious secretions.1

MICROCUFF* PEDIATRIC ENDOTRACHEAL TUBE

A new standard for paediatric airway management

MICROCUFF* Pediatric Endotracheal Tubes, designed specifically for the paediatric anatomy, offer the advantages of a cuffed tube, reducing tracheal trauma and providing a sealed airway that allows minimal and low flow anaesthesia use.1 Its short and cylindrical cuff membrane compensates for different sized and shaped paediatric airways, reducing the need for replacing oversized tracheal tubes, and resulting in lower re-intubation rates.1

MICROCUFF* ADULT ENDOTRACHEAL TUBE

Provides A Superior Tracheal Seal (3,4) … Proven to Reduce Leakage

Micro-aspiration of potentially infectious secretions through gaps in the endotracheal tube cuff is known to be a leading cause of VAP1. The cuff seal is the final barrier that protects the lungs from aspiration of potentially infectious pharyngeal secretions. When intubated, conventional high volume, low pressure (HVLP) PVC cuffs create channels that permit fluid to leak through the cuff and into the lungs.
