Specifications

1. Cuff

The balloon on the end of the trach tube. When inflated, it forms a seal against the wall of your windpipe. This stops the airflow through your mouth and nose so that you breathe through the trach tube.

2. Inflation line

Thin plastic tubing that carries air to and from the cuff.

3. Pilot balloon

Small plastic balloon-like component on the end of the inflation line. It indicates if air is in the cuff.

4. Luer valve

Where the syringe is connected to inflate or deflate the cuff.

5. Soft swivel neck flange

Contains product designation and size information. Twill ties or Shiley tracheostomy tube holders attach through the holes on either side securing the tube to your neck. Soft swivel design helps to position the tube properly and comfortably.

6. Disposable inner cannula (DIC)

The tube that fits inside your trach tube. Designed for single use only. Do not reuse or clean. Replace with a new one as directed by your doctor or home healthcare provider.

7. Fenestration (DFEN & DCFN)

A hole on the curved part of the trach tube. When the fenestrated outer cannula is used, the non-fenestrated inner cannula is removed, allowing air to flow through the vocal cords, mouth and nose, so you can speak.

8. 15 mm connector

Part of the inner cannula that sticks out at the neck. An artificial nose, ventilator tubing, manual resuscitation bag or Shiley Phonate speaking valve may be connected to this.

9 Disposable decannulation plug (DDCP)

For use with DFEN and DCFN. Attaches to the trach tube opening when the inner cannula has been removed and cuff has been deflated. Directs air through fenestration to your mouth and nose.

Read before starting inner cannula care

Note: When inserting a reusable inner cannula, be sure the twist-lock connector is secure. It is locked only when the two blue dots on the 15 mm connector of the inner cannula and the outer cannula are lined up. If it becomes worn or loose, report this to your home healthcare provider for prompt replacement.

Caution: A Shiley disposable inner cannula (DIC) should never be cleaned and reused. It is designed for one-time use only.

Note: The DIC should be changed and discarded according to the schedule your doctor or home healthcare provider gives you.

Replacing a disposable inner cannula (DCFN, DCFS, DCT, DFEN, PERC)

The disposable inner cannula (DIC) system eliminates the need to clean the inner cannula. The snap-lock feature provides a secure connection and makes it easy to insert and remove the DIC with little or no discomfort.

  • Wash your hands.
  • Hold the neck flange steady with one hand.
  • With the other hand, gently squeeze the snap-lock and pull the inner cannula out of the tube, using a downward motion.
  • Throw away the used inner cannula.
  • Gently squeeze the snap-lock of the new inner cannula and insert it into the tube. Release the snap-lock connector when it securely locks onto both sides of the connector rim.
