Introducing BALLARD Liberator, ET Tube Clearing System
Clears the ET tube to help liberate your patients from the vent sooner
The Challenge:
Many patients capable of being weaned from the ventilator may fail their spontaneous breathing trial (SBT) because of increased work of breathing from a narrowed lumen. Routine endotracheal suctioning is unable to remove adherent secretions and biofilm from the walls of the ET tube, resulting in:
- A narrowed airway
- Increased airway resistance
- Increased work of breathing
- Delayed extubation
The Win:
BALLARD Liberator restores performance of the endotracheal tube, giving patients an improved opportunity to pass their SBT.
- Clears the ETT of tenacious secretions and biofilm
- Reduces airway resistance and work of breathing
- Restores the ETT to optimal weaning conditions
- Gives patient an improved opportunity to pass their SBT
Clear tubes reduce resistance allowing patients to liberate from the vent sooner
Study objective: Compare the effectiveness of removing adherent endotracheal tube secretions prior to weaning trials, compared to the effectiveness of routine suctioning alone prior to weaning trials. Design: Three-year retrospective study of all adult patients, age 18 or older, admitted to the Intensive Care Unit who were on the ventilator greater than 24 hours. 583 cases were reviewed on year one, 516 on year two, and 662 on year three. Results: The removal of adherent endotracheal tube secretions prior to weaning trials decreased average ventilator days by up to a day
