EA/1 - Smiths Medical ASD, Inc. Bivona FlexTend TTS Neonatal Straight Neck Flange Tracheostomy Tube, Size 2.5

Bivona® FlexTend™ TTS™ tracheostomy tube is designed for neonatal and pediatric patients who require intermittent or temporary cuff use. A cuff, when inflated, helps create a seal between the tube’s outer wall and the trachea to direct airflow through the inner lumen, protecting against aspiration and optimizing respiration in ventilated patients and patients performing lung expansion therapies. When the seal is no longer needed, the cuff can be deflated and it rests tight-to-shaft (TTS), reducing the risk of trauma to the trachea and allowing the patient to speak.
