The Covidien 18865 Shiley TaperGuard Evac Oral Tracheal Tube is designed for oral intubation, offering a secure and effective airway for patients requiring mechanical ventilation or general anesthesia. This tube features the TaperGuard cuff, which provides an enhanced seal for a more secure airway management, reducing the risk of air leakage and improving patient comfort. The Murphy eye ensures safety during the intubation procedure, allowing for suctioning of secretions and maintaining the patency of the airway, which is especially useful in emergency situations or during surgical procedures.

Manufactured from medical-grade PVC or silicone, the Shiley TaperGuard Evac Oral Tracheal Tube is designed for durability while also being flexible enough to allow for easy insertion and secure placement in the trachea. The TaperGuard cuff inflates smoothly, creating a low-pressure, high-volume seal to minimize the risk of tracheal injury while maintaining a secure seal for ventilated patients. This feature is essential in settings where long-term airway support is required, such as in the ICU or during prolonged surgeries.

The Murphy eye adds a layer of safety by providing an additional opening in the tube for suctioning and preventing blockage, especially in situations where mucus accumulation or other airway obstructions could compromise breathing. The sterile, single-use packaging ensures that each tracheal tube is free from contaminants, minimizing the risk of infection. Sold in boxes of 10 units, the Shiley TaperGuard Evac Oral Tracheal Tube is an essential tool for clinicians performing airway management, offering reliable, comfortable, and secure tracheal intubation for various patient care settings.
