The Shiley Decannulation Cap is an essential accessory for healthcare professionals managing tracheostomy care. Designed specifically for adult FEN (fenestrated) and CFN (cuffed fenestrated) tracheostomy tubes, this 15mm cap plays a crucial role in the decannulation process.
Key Features
- Universal Fit: The cap's 15mm size ensures compatibility with Shiley's range of fenestrated tracheostomy tubes, including those used in pediatric and neonatal care.
