Shiley™ XLT Extended-Length Tracheostomy Tubes give you an economical, off-the-shelf alternative to custom tracheostomy tubes 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.

XLT Extended-Length Uncuffed Tracheostomy Tube 90mm L, 5mm I.D. x 9-3/5mm O.D., Distal Extension, White Flange Buyer’s Guide

The XLT Extended-Length Uncuffed Tracheostomy Tube 90mm L, 5mm I.D. x 9-3/5mm O.D., Distal Extension, White Flange is designed for patients who require a longer distal tracheostomy tube to bypass tracheal abnormalities or anatomical variances. Whether used in long-term care settings or for patients with specific airway needs, this product delivers a reliable, non-cuffed airway solution with secure placement and comfortable design.

Uncuffed Tracheostomy Tube Extended-Length Design 

This XLT tracheostomy tube features a 90mm distal extension, accommodating patients with tracheal scarring, stenosis, or extended neck anatomy. The longer reach ensures that the tube remains properly positioned beyond obstructions or irregular tracheal segments, reducing the risk of displacement or obstruction.

Uncuffed for Spontaneous Breathing and Low Pressure

Being uncuffed, this tracheostomy tube is ideal for patients who are able to breathe on their own and do not require ventilation or positive airway pressure. The design reduces pressure on the tracheal wall, which is particularly beneficial for patients with fragile tissues or long-term tracheostomy needs.

Optimal Sizing

With a 5mm internal diameter (I.D.) and a 9-3/5mm outer diameter (O.D.), the XLT tracheostomy tube allows for efficient airflow while maintaining structural strength. This balance helps facilitate patient comfort, speech, and airway clearance during suctioning or coughing.

Tracheostomy Tube with White Flange for Visibility and Secure Placement

The white flange on this XLT tracheostomy tube provides a clear and identifiable point for securing the tube to a trach tie or neck strap. The color-coding is particularly helpful in clinical environments, improving visibility for clinicians and enhancing patient safety through quick identification.

Enhanced Patient Comfort

Manufactured using medical-grade materials, the XLT tracheostomy tube minimizes irritation and promotes long-term comfort. The flexibility of the tube’s body allows for a more natural fit within the patient’s airway, reducing trauma during insertion or repositioning.

XLT Extended-Length Uncuffed Tracheostomy Tube 90mm L Compatibility

The XLT Extended-Length Uncuffed Tracheostomy Tube is compatible with standard inner cannulas, humidifiers, and tracheal care accessories. This ensures that healthcare professionals can integrate the tube seamlessly into existing respiratory care routines without needing specialized attachments.
