Shiley tracheostomy tubes have a proven 40-year history with over 760 million products used around the world.
These clinician-inspired enhancements include the taper-shaped TaperGuard cuff. The TaperGuard cuff may help protect the lungs and reduce tracheal impact by reducing fluid leakage by 99% and exerting 18.6% less lateral wall pressure on the trachea.1 In addition, TaperGuard cuff technology helps improve a clinician’s ability to provide mechanical ventilation with the ability to titrate ventilator air leak that is 65% greater than with earlier-generation Shiley tubes.2
Shiley flexible tubes were designed with larger inner diameters, compared to earlier Shiley tracheostomy tubes. Airflow around the outer cannula when the cuff is deflated has increased by an average of 242%.2 It has been found that improved airflow may reduce the work of breathing required to speak and wean from a tracheostomy tube.
Other enhancements in the new family of Shiley flexible tracheostomy tubes include color-coding by size (for disposable inner cannula products only), an expanded range of sizes, a soft material made with a non-DEHP plasticizer, a clear flange and a design that make it possible to ventilate with or without an inner cannula.
- A thinner, less bulky cuff reduces insertion force by 39%.
- A beveled tip on all product configurations eases percutaneous insertion.
- The Shiley flexible tracheostomy products use sizing (I.D., O.D., length and tube curvature) that is similar to those used in earlier Shiley products.
- Integrated 15 mm connector.
- The TaperGuard cuff reduces fluid leakage by 99%.
- Flange material is a transparent, soft material designed to conform to the patient’s anatomy to help reduce the risk of skin breakdown.
- Flange openings designed to improve airflow to sensitive skin. It is offset to help reduce contact with the patient’s skin.
- The TaperGuard cuff exerts 18.6%4 less lateral wall pressure on the trachea.
- Airflow around the outer cannula when the cuff is deflated has increased by an average of 242%.
- Improved airflow may reduce the work of breathing required to speak and wean from a tracheostomy tube.4,5.
