Mallinckrodt Medical Inc Shiley™ XLT Extended-Length Cuffed Tracheostomy Tube 100mm L, 7mm I.D. x 12-2/7mm O.D., Distal Extension, White Flange

Shiley™ XLT Extended-Length Tracheostomy Tubes give you an economical, off-the-shelf alternative to custom tracheostomy tubes for patients with anatomical challenges. Unlike most extended-length tracheostomy tubes, Shiley™ XLT tubes give you the choice of extra length in the proximal or distal portions for a more customized fit. In addition, the Shiley™ XLT offers the convenience of a disposable inner cannula. Both the outer and inner cannulas are flexible, so they more easily conform to your patient's anatomy.

• Four adult sizes, cuffed and cuffless, with proximal or distal extension, representing 16 options for patients with anatomical challenges.
• Flexible, disposable inner cannula has a unique locking ring that fastens it securely to the outer cannula.
• Flexible, soft, free-swiveling neck flange improves patient comfort and provides easy inspection of the stoma site.
• Outer cannula tip-to-tip radiopaque line facilitates proper tube positioning.
• High volume, low pressure cuff meets all published cuff criteria.
• ISO sizing indicates I.D. of disposable inner cannula.
• 100% latex-free.

XLT Extended‑Length Cuffed Tracheostomy Tube 100 mm L, 7 mm I.D. × 12‑2/7 mm O.D., Distal Extension, White Flange Buyer’s Guide

The XLT Extended‑Length Cuffed Tracheostomy Tube 100 mm L, 7 mm I.D. × 12‑2/7 mm O.D., Distal Extension, White Flange is a specialized airway device designed by Mallinckrodt (Shiley™) to support patients requiring greater reach beyond standard tracheostomy tubing length. With a distal extension of approximately 49 mm beyond the radial section, it caters to long-trachea, stenosis, or malacic anatomy while maintaining patient comfort and secure ventilation.

100 ml L Cuffed Tracheostomy Tube Distal Extension 

With around 49 mm of distal length beyond the main shaft, the XLT tracheostomy tube accommodates users with elongated or curved tracheal pathways. It helps position the airway tip securely when standard-length tubes are too short. This feature reduces the need for custom tubing while maintaining ventilation efficacy.

Safety Features

The integrated cuff on the XLT tracheostomy tube provides secure airway sealing while minimizing mucosal pressure. This reduces injury risk while maintaining ventilation. The cuff volume meets published safety standards and supports long-term use.

Extended‑Length Cuffed Tracheostomy Tube Enhanced Comfort 

The tracheostomy tube's free-swiveling white neck flange ensures a gentle fit around the stoma and allows for easy stoma site visuals. Its design accommodates neck movement without dislodging the tube. The flange rotates independently from the tube shaft.

Disposable Inner Cannula with Twist-Lock

The cuffed tracheostomy tube has a convenient twist-lock inner cannula allowing for fast removal and cleaning during patient care. Replacement cannulas fit securely and help maintain hygiene in ventilated patients. This system supports neuromuscular, chronic, or pediatric regimes.

Extended‑Length Cuffed Tracheostomy Tube Flexible Material

The XLT Extended‑Length Cuffed Tracheostomy Tube 100 mm L is made from thermoplastic material that softens at body temperature for comfort and better anatomical conformity. The shaft flexes to match tracheal curvature while reducing trauma risk. This increases tolerance during long-term wear.

XLT Extended‑Length Cuffed Tracheostomy Tube 100 mm L Improved Placement Accuracy

A tip‑to‑tip radiopaque line on the outer cannula of the XLT tracheostomy tube aids accurate placement and monitoring via imaging. Clinicians can verify tube depth and position without guesswork. This feature improves safety in both acute and ventilator-dependent care situations.

Latex-Free Materials

The entire tracheostomy tube is latex-free, reducing allergy risk for users and clinicians. Sealed packaging maintains sterility until use. The tube meets medical-grade standards for safety and biocompatibility.
