The Smiths Medical 60AFHXL60 is a tracheostomy tube specifically designed for patients requiring an extra-length tube due to unusual airway anatomy. This uncuffed tube measures 6mm in size and has an extended length of 100mm. Made from wire-reinforced silicone, it offers both durability and flexibility, reducing the risk of kinking and ensuring a secure airway for the patient.
The tube features a fixed neck flange, which aids in stable placement. An obturator is included for ease of insertion, and a trach-tie is provided for secure positioning. A decannulation cap is also part of the package, useful for when the tube needs to be temporarily sealed.
One of the key features of this tracheostomy tube is its radiopaque nature, which allows for easy visualization under X-ray, aiding in accurate placement and monitoring.
Delivered sterile, this tube is ready for immediate use, ensuring patient safety by preventing potential contamination. The Smiths Medical 60AFHXL60 tracheostomy tube is sold in a case of 50 units, making it a cost-effective choice for healthcare facilities.
