The Portex Blue Line Ultra Suctionaid tracheostomy tubes with subglottic suction line by ICU Medical are intended to improve patient well-being by maintaining a clean, hygienic and unobstructed airway through the ability to remove secretions above the cuff
The high volume, low pressure Soft-Seal® cuff is intended to minimise patient trauma. Because of the cuff’s large volume, a larger surface area is in contact with the trachea. This allows the cuff to create an effective seal against the trachea at a lower pressure
Supplied as a kit including Blue Line Ultra® Tracheostomy Tube, two inner cannulas, cleaning brush and tracheostomy tube holder
