Recommendation of a professional on the use of the technology.

The Armflex Fenestrated Tracheostomy Cannula with cuff is indicated in patients who require mechanical ventilation due to functional, post-traumatic or surgical alterations that affect the patency of this sector of the airway.

Its purpose is:

– enable mechanical ventilation;

– direct the expiratory airflow towards the larynx to enable phonation;

– allow endoscopic maneuvers (diagnostic and / or therapeutic in the airway);

– facilitate the humidification of secretions and endotracheal aspiration.

The cuff seals the tracheal lumen, allowing adequate control of gas movement during mechanical ventilation and preventing the passage of fluids and secretions from the upper airway into the bronchial tree.

The wall of the cannula is reinforced with a stainless-steel spiral that provides high resistance to kinking and the collapse of its lumen by extrinsic compression.

It is used in patients with tracheostomies who maintain their ability to speak or are in the stage of phonatory re-education.

The product is offered with:

– (2) inner cannulas so that the patient always has one in use and another clean for their

substitution,

– (1) cough cap, used to prevent tracheo-bronchial secretions from being ejected during

expiration or coughing spells.

– (1) phonation valve, which, with its unidirectional mechanism, allows air to enter through the

cannula during the inspiration phase of the respiratory cycle and prevents the escape of

air during the expiratory phase.

Air that cannot escape through the distal end of the cannula is directed through the holes

of the inner and outer cannulas, towards the cords vowels to produce phonation.

– (1) standard connector, which allows the connection of the tracheostomy tube to:

– manual or automatic mechanical ventilation devices (respirators),

– nebulization devices.

– (1) velcro neck band (velour with velcro), made of material whose texture ensures a correct

fixation of the cannula without risk of breaking the plate.

It is supplied with an introduction mandrel to facilitate its application in recently performed tracheostomies.
