Mallinckrodt Evac Cuffed Endotracheal Tube with Taperguard

The Mallinckrodt Evac Cuffed Endotracheal Tube is equipped with Taperguard technology
The lowmpact and lowressure endotracheal tube is equipped with features that may help reduce the tracheal impact of intubation
It is manufactured with a unique, taperhaped cuff design that provides a smaller area of contact with the patient airway than traditional barrelhaped cuffs
The taper guard technology exerts 29% less pressure on the trachea and reduces intracuff pressure required to obtain an adequate seal compared to Mallinckrodt Hio cuffs
It provides more uniform pressure distribution than Mallinckrodt Hio cuffs at equivalent intracuff pressures
It reduces microaspiration by as much as 90% compared to Mallinckrodt Hio cuffs
The tube is sterile and is meant for single patient use only
These cuffed endotracheal tubes are available in 6 sizes:
