Description

  • Product Type: Spare Inner Cannula (IC). This is a sterile, single-use insert designed to fit inside the reusable outer cannula of the TRACOE Twist Plus tracheostomy tube.

  • Tube Compatibility: Exclusively designed for the TRACOE Twist Plus tracheostomy tube line.

  • Size: Size 7.0 Adult. This corresponds to an inner diameter (ID) of 7.0 mm.

  • Non-Fenestrated: It is an unfenestrated inner cannula. In the TRACOE Twist Plus system, these are often identified by a white locking ring and are used when a sealed airway is required for ventilation.

  • Connector: Features the standard 15 mm ISO connector for attaching breathing circuits, HMEs (Heat and Moisture Exchangers), or speaking valves.

  • Disposable/Single-Use: The cannulas are individually packaged and designed for single-patient, single-use applications, which significantly enhances hygiene and reduces the risk of infection.

  • Locking Mechanism: Utilizes a secure twist-lock connector to ensure a reliable attachment to the outer tube.

  • Packaging: The "X" in the reference number indicates a bulk packaging unit, often 10 pieces per box, intended for hospital or facility use.

Primary Uses

The core purpose of the Atos REF 521-07-X is to support the daily care and hygiene of a patient using a TRACOE Twist Plus outer tube.

  • Routine Airway Hygiene: The main use is to quickly replace a soiled inner cannula without having to remove the entire tracheostomy tube. This is a standard procedure to keep the airway clear of secretions.

  • Emergency Airway Maintenance: Allows for rapid exchange if the current inner cannula becomes obstructed by thick secretions or mucus plugs, ensuring continuous airflow.

  • Ventilator Connection: Provides the secure, standardized 15 mm connector necessary for connecting the patient to a mechanical ventilator circuit or for inline suctioning.

  • Patient Stability: Enables caregivers to change the inner cannula quickly at the bedside, minimizing manipulation of the outer tube and thus preserving its position and reducing patient discomfort.
