Description
The Medline Oral Endotracheal Tube at 4.0 mm is a preformed curved, uncuffed tube designed for orotracheal intubation, particularly in paediatric patients where uncuffed tubes are the standard of care. The preformed curve aids alignment with the oral and laryngeal axes during laryngoscopy, and the Murphy eye near the distal tip maintains airflow should the primary lumen become partially occluded. The absence of a cuff makes this tube appropriate for patients whose tracheal anatomy does not yet accommodate a cuffed design.
