Endobronchial tubes are used in thoracic surgery. Double-lumen tubes all have cuffed endobronchial portions and tracheal cuffs. The endobronchial parts are curved to the left or right. They are passed blindly and their position should be confirmed bronchoscopically. The main disadvantage of right sided tubes concerns the short length of the right main bronchus before giving off the upper lobe bronchus (risk of occlusion). Thus, left-sided tubes are usually preferred, even for right-sided surgery, because of the risk of inadequate ventilation of the right upper lobe if incorrectly positioned.
Tracheal cuff separates the lung from the environment.
Colour-coded pilot balloons with luer-lock connector, marked with the name of the lumen (tracheal or bronchial) for easy identification.
High Volume Low Pressure Cuff minimize trauma to mucosa while achieving an excellent seal.
Manufactured from clear, thermosensitive PVC material which softens at body temperature, preventing trauma to delicate tracheal mucosa.
Accurate depth marks.
Standard connector.
Radio opaque line provided.
