Description
The BLOM LARYNGECTOMY TUBE STERILE NON-FENESTRATED is a specialized medical device crafted by InHealth Technologies, under the Blom-Singer brand. Designed for individuals who have undergone a laryngectomy, this tube plays a crucial role in maintaining the tracheostoma opening post-surgery.
Key Features
- Material and Design: Made from durable, lightweight silicone, the tube offers a flexible design that comfortably contours to the tracheal anatomy. This ensures enhanced comfort and functionality for the user.
- Sterility and Packaging: Each tube is supplied in a double sterile package, making it ready for immediate use after surgery. The latex-free construction further enhances its suitability for medical use.
- Compatibility: While it is intended for use with a Blom-Singer voice prosthesis, it is not compatible with HME cassettes or attachments. A cloth strap for additional support is available separately.
