Product Overview
The cuffed reinforced endotracheal tube carries a spiral spring within the tube wall along its entire length, so the tube resists kinking when the head is turned or flexed. That matters in head, neck and prone procedures where a standard tube would occlude. Medical PVC with spring reinforcement, sizes 3 to 10, EO sterilised in peelable paper-plastic bags, 10 per box and 100 per carton, with ISO 13485 and CE.
