Potential benefits of using the Shiley 5.5PELF Cuffless 5.5 mm Tracheostomy Tube:

  • Improved comfort: The uncuffed design and soft, flexible material can be more comfortable for some children than cuffed tubes.
  • Reduced risk of irritation: The uncuffed design minimizes contact with the delicate tissues of the trachea, potentially reducing irritation and discomfort.
  • Easier speaking ability: The uncuffed design allows air to flow through the upper airway, which can help children speak more easily.
  • Reduced risk of aspiration: The uncuffed design allows for more natural cough reflexes and easier removal of secretions, potentially reducing the risk of aspiration.
  • Promotes development: The uncuffed design allows for more natural breathing patterns and may promote the development of speech and swallowing.
