Kid-man Endotracheal Tube Cuffed 6.0 mm Sterile PVC

The Kid-man Endotracheal Tube Cuffed 6.0 mm is a high-quality, single-use medical device designed for effective airway management and respiratory support. Constructed from flexible, medical-grade PVC, this tube is engineered to provide a secure and reliable passage for airflow in clinical environments. It features a low-pressure, high-volume cuff that ensures an optimal seal against the tracheal wall, minimizing the risk of mucosal damage while preventing aspiration. The inclusion of a Murphy eye provides an alternative ventilation path, enhancing safety during patient care.

Advantages

This endotracheal tube offers significant clinical benefits through its thoughtful design and material composition. The flexible PVC construction allows for easy insertion and patient comfort, while the integrated X-ray marker running the entire length of the tube facilitates accurate positioning verification via imaging. Precise placement is further supported by clear graduation marks every centimeter and a double depth marker system. The universal 15 mm connector ensures compatibility with standard ventilation equipment, and the pilot balloon provides clear identification of the lot number and tube size for quick reference during emergency procedures.

Suitable for

• Airway management in clinical and hospital settings
• Respiratory support during anesthesia
• Prevention of airway obstruction
• Emergency ventilation procedures

When it may not be suitable

This device is intended for single-patient use only and should not be reused or re-sterilized. It is not suitable for patients with known hypersensitivity to the materials used or in clinical scenarios where a non-cuffed tube is specifically indicated by medical protocol.

Key specifications

• Size: 6.0 mm
• Material: Flexible, latex-free PVC
• Sterilization: Ethylene oxide (EO)
• Connector: 15 mm universal
• Features: Murphy eye, low-pressure high-volume cuff, X-ray marker
• Graduation: Every 1 cm

How to use

The tube should be handled by trained medical professionals under sterile conditions. Before insertion, inspect the packaging for integrity and verify the expiration date. Check the cuff for leaks by inflating it briefly with a syringe. During intubation, use the graduation marks and depth indicators to ensure the tube is positioned correctly within the trachea. Once in place, inflate the cuff to the required pressure to create an effective seal. Secure the tube according to standard clinical protocols and monitor the patient's respiratory status continuously.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the 6.0 mm size is appropriate for the patient's anatomy
• Verify compatibility with existing ventilation circuits
• Confirm the need for a cuffed versus non-cuffed design
• Check storage conditions to maintain sterility

Usage recommendations

Always verify the position of the tube after insertion using auscultation or capnography to ensure proper placement and effective ventilation.
