Soft and Safe Reinforced Endotracheal Tube for Oral and Nasal Intubation
The Endotracheal Tube is supplied sterile with standard 15 mm connectors. The tube design incorporates a Magill curve and features a radiopaque line to assist in radiographic visualization.
Just like standard ET tubes, armored or re-inforced tubes have the typical left-facing bevel at the tip and the Murphy eye. Their distinctive feature is a metal wire coil embedded in the wall of the tube shaft which keeps the lumen of the tube open when it is bent.
Armored endotracheal tube (ETT) has reinforced metal coils which make it less likely to get obstructed. Therefore, it is preferred for head and neck surgeries. Airway obstruction due to occlusion of armored ETT lumen after being bitten by patient is well known.Postoperatively, the orally intubated armored ETT has to be replaced with PVC ETT to prevent partial or total airway obstruction caused by biting.
