How to Use
Keep the neck in a hyperextension position. Use a viscous lubricant. Insert through the tracheostomy hole. Fix it to the neck with a bandage without adhesives, maintaining in it enough tension so that a little finger can pass between the bandage and the neck.
Postoperative Cares
- Replace the gauze that separates it from the neck’ skin at least once a day.
- In case of noisy breathing, sanitize by instilling sterile saline solution and aspirate gently with a thin catheter not exceeding its length along the length of the cannula.
- Consult your doctor immediately.
Warning
- It does not have an inflatable balloon to close a circuit of mechanical respiratory assistance.
- The product should not be reused because this can cause cross contamination.
