1 A Change For The Better. FINALLY, A clear CHANGE TO. SUBGLOTTIC SUCTIONING. Rinse. suction . clear . A Change For The Better. KIMVENT* MICROCUFF* Subglottic Suctioning Endotracheal Tubes When using a subglottic suctioning endotracheal tube, CLOGGED LUMENS have become the bane of your existence. Difficult and sometimes impossible to clear out using air bolus, you've struggled long enough! Until Now . Introducing KIMVENT* MICROCUFF* Subglottic Suctioning Endotracheal Tube. Combining more effective subglottic suctioning with our advanced MICROCUFF*.

2 Polyurethane cuff technology, you can finally provide an effective protection against microaspiration. And, because KIMVENT* MICROCUFF* Subglottic Suctioning Endotracheal Tubes are proven to be more effective at preventing and clearing clogs, you no longer have to struggle to make subglottic suctioning actually work!5,7,8. More effective subglottic suctioning. Rinse. suction . clear . 3 Simple Steps: Rinse. suction . clear . Rinse As the FIRST FDA Cleared Endotracheal Tube Indicated for Saline Use, Clogs are No Longer a Problem!

3 7,8. suction lumens clog up to 44% of the time - preventing effective suctioning of Saline rinsing is more effective than air bolus at loosening and clearing clogged suction The suction valve with integrated rinse port enables both suctioning and saline rinsing, without opening the suction circuit, preventing cross-contamination to both caregiver and Integrated suctioning valve and rinse port facilitates both suctioning and rinsing of the lumen. suction Suctions Secretions More Effectively and Efficiently with a Push of a Button When clogged lumens prevent effective suctioning, subglottic secretions are known to accumulate up to 13ml per hour, increasing the risk of With reports of suctioning dysfunction as high as 48%.

4 Due to clogs,1,2 suctioning is inconsistent. clear A clear Change for Clearly Superior Results A polyurethane cuff reduces channel formation, minimizing cuff leakage and enabling the use of Polyurethane cuffs prevent fluid leakage, demonstrating 93% less mircroaspiration than competitive Taper-Shaped ETT with Subglottic Because saline rinsing is more effective than air bolus at clearing clogs, subglottic secretions are suctioned more The cylindrical-shaped, polyurethane cuff provides a superior tracheal seal, preventing leakage up to 93%.
