Description
These Shiley Oral/Nasal Endotracheal Tubes are manufactured from non-DEHP PVC, addressing concerns about phthalate exposure in sensitive patient populations including neonates, paediatric patients, and those undergoing prolonged intubation. The cuffless design is commonly selected for paediatric airway management, where a correctly sized tube provides an adequate seal without cuff pressure on delicate tracheal tissue. A Murphy eye offers a secondary airway lumen to help maintain ventilation if the primary tip becomes obstructed.
