This tube is designed to maintain the tracheostoma opening following a laryngectomy, providing essential support for patients during their postoperative recovery.
Key Features

- Compatibility: It is compatible with InHealth Technologies HME systems and accessories, making it suitable for patients who cannot tolerate adhesives.
Design and Fit
The tube is available in various sizes and two lengths (36mm and 55mm), allowing it to flexibly contour to the unique postoperative tracheal anatomy of each patient. This adaptability ensures a comfortable and secure fit, enhancing patient outcomes.
Additional Features
