Smiths Medical Bivona TTS Cuffed Tracheostomy Tube provides multiple features in one design. The cuff, when inflated, creates a seal between the tube and the trachea, protecting against aspiration and optimizing respiration. When the cuff is deflated, it rests tight to the shaft of the tube. This enables the tube to be used for weaning patients from a ventilator and also aids in speaking. It provides a tracheostomy solution for a variety of airway management needs without having to change tubes. This has silicone material which is intended to provide maximum comfort to the patient and offers a soft, flexible tube alternative to tubes made of more rigid material.
