About Corrugated Breathing Tubes
The AirSpiral heated breathing tube for Airvo 2 utilizes an advanced two-spiral design to help protect against condensate.Weive all seen it happen before. When warm, humid gas touches anything even a fraction of a degree colder than itself (i.e. dew point), it cools and generates condensate. We see it often in conventional breathing tubes made of thin, dense plastic: their surfaces are easily cooled by the outside air, resulting in unpleasant "rain-outi.High-Quality Medical Grade TubingManufactured using extrusion molding technology, these corrugated breathing tubes prioritize patient safety and infection control. The single-use, disposable design eliminates cross-contamination risks. Their transparent or blue color enhances visibility, while flexibility and resistance to kinking make them easy to handle during procedures. With temperature resistance up to 60C, these tubes maintain integrity in various clinical environments.
Universal Compatibility and Sterile AssuranceEach tube features universal connectors, seamlessly fitting standard respiratory equipment in hospital or clinic settings. The EO (ethylene oxide) sterilization process maintains a high standard of hygiene, and individualized medical-grade packaging secures sterility until point of use. Compliance with ISO 5367 ensures the tubes adhere to global safety and quality benchmarks.
FAQ's of Corrugated Breathing Tubes:
Q: How are these corrugated breathing tubes used in respiratory therapy?
A: They are utilized to transfer gases like oxygen or anesthetic from respiratory equipment to the patient during procedures. Flexible and kink-resistant, the tubes ensure uninterrupted airflow for both adults and pediatric patients.
Q: What are the sterility features of these breathing tubes?
A: Each tube is EO (ethylene oxide) sterilized and individually packed in medical-grade pouches, providing a sterile, ready-to-use product for every procedure and minimizing infection risks.
Q: Which types of connectors are compatible with these tubes?
A: The tubes are fitted with universal connectors, making them compatible with standard respiratory equipment typically used in hospitals and clinics, ensuring hassle-free setup and replacement.
Q: Can these breathing tubes be reused or are they disposable?
A: These tubes are designed strictly for single use; they are not reusable. After a procedure, they should be properly disposed of to maintain patient safety and prevent cross-contamination.
Q: What benefits do the flexibility and transparency of these tubes offer?
A: Flexibility allows for easy maneuvering without kinking, and high transparency enables clear visibility and quick identification of blockages or condensation, enhancing patient monitoring and safety.
Q: Where should these corrugated breathing tubes be stored?
A: Store the tubes in a cool, dry place within their individual medical-grade pouches to maintain sterility and integrity until use.
Q: What patient sizes are supported by these breathing tubes?
A: With inner diameters of 15 mm and 22 mm, and customizable lengths, the tubes are suitable for both adult and pediatric patients, covering a wide range of clinical scenarios.
