Description
The Shiley Flexible Tracheostomy Tube (Size 6, TaperGuard Cuff, Reusable) is an adult-sized airway management device from Covidien/Medtronic, supplied sterile and ready for clinical use. The TaperGuard cuff uses a tapered shape to distribute pressure evenly along the tracheal wall, reducing the risk of mucosal injury compared to cylindrical cuffs. A beveled distal tip aids smooth insertion, and the flexible shaft accommodates natural airway angles for patient comfort.
