About Ambu Cuff Pressure Gauge
The Ambu Cuff Pressure Gauge is used for inflation, deflation and pressure control of laryngeal masks and tracheal tubes with high volume, low-pressure cuffs. The dial has two zones of highlighted pressure areas grade in cm H2 O for optimal visibility during use. The Luer connection allows the gauge to be connected to laryngeal masks or intubation tubes, either directly or via the connecting tube. The Ambu Cuff Pressure Gauge has an ergonomic design and is easy to operate, thanks to the integrated inflation bulb and release valve. It addresses the particular needs of anaesthesia and resuscitation servicesPrecision in Every ReadingEquipped with an easy-to-read analog dial, the Ambu Cuff Pressure Gauge ensures swift and clear pressure assessments. Real-time measurement helps clinicians maintain optimal cuff pressures, reducing the risk of complications associated with improper inflation.
Safety-First DesignA dedicated pressure release button provides vital protection against over-inflation. This safety feature is essential in both routine and emergency care, minimizing risk and enabling safe, effective use in hospitals, clinics, and during patient transport.
Engineered for ConvenienceCompact, lightweight, and requiring no external power source, the gauge is highly portable and reusable. Its universal connector enables seamless use across various cuff types, while durable materials ensure long-lasting performance and easy storage.
