BLUselect® Cuffed Tracheostomy Tube Our most popular PVC tube is our BLUselect® cuffed tube. This tube has our patented SOFT-SEAL® cuff which is a low pressure, high volume cuff. SOFT-SEAL® is designed to minimize trauma upon insertion and provides an effective seal. Unlike our competitors, our cuffed tube has distinct marking on the pilot balloon, providing relevant information such as ID and French Sizes. Product Benefits:
Tubes are not manufactured with DEHP plasticizers.
Flanges are also labeled different colours for each size. This increases patient safety by creating an easy identifier to match tubes with inner cannula.
Flange is soft and clear with laser printed numbers that cannot be altered by secretions or cleaning.
Thermosensitive Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) tubes provides sufficient rigidity for initial insertion, and then softens at body temperature to accommodate individual patient anatomy.
Tube material is radio-opaque to enable confirmation of tube positon under x-ray.
Built in 15 mm ISO connector for ventilation circuit connection with or without an inner cannula in place.
Obturator provides rigidity for tube insertion. Rounded obturator tip for insertion with minimal trauma.
Special Clip design minimizes obturator tip movement during tube insertion.
