The XLT Extended-Length Uncuffed Tracheostomy Tube 90mm L, 5mm I.D. x 9-3/5mm O.D., Proximal Extension, White Flange is a specialized airway management solution designed for patients who require an extended-length tracheostomy tube with a proximal extension. It provides a secure, unobstructed airway for long-term or post-surgical respiratory care where anatomical variation or clinical condition necessitates longer tube length and uncuffed access. The tube’s 90mm length, 5mm internal diameter, and 9-3/5mm outer diameter make it ideal for pediatric and adult patients with unique tracheal needs.

White Flange Tracheostomy Tube Designed for Extended Proximal Reach

The XLT Extended-Length Uncuffed Tracheostomy Tube features a proximal extension that provides extra reach toward the upper airway, accommodating patients with atypical neck or tracheal anatomy. This extension ensures correct placement for effective ventilation and helps prevent displacement or misalignment during use.

Uncuffed Design Supports Low-Pressure Airflow

This tracheostomy tube uses an uncuffed design, which allows for lower-resistance airflow while minimizing the risk of tracheal wall pressure and irritation. It is ideal for patients who do not require a sealed airway or those undergoing gradual weaning from ventilator support. The uncuffed format also supports vocalization in appropriate clinical settings.

Uncuffed Tracheostomy Tube Secure Fit

With a 5mm internal diameter and 9-3/5mm external diameter, this XLT tracheostomy tube is engineered for precise fit and efficient airway management. The dimensions support proper humidification, secretion management, and airflow while reducing the risk of blockage or migration. The 90mm shaft length ensures it reaches the appropriate depth for patients requiring longer tube accommodation.

White Flange for Clear Identification

The XLT Extended-Length Uncuffed Tracheostomy Tube with Proximal Extension includes a color-coded flange to help clinicians and caregivers quickly identify the tube type and size. The white flange designates an uncuffed model and provides a secure, low-profile base that sits comfortably on the neck without adding bulk.

XLT Extended-Length Uncuffed Tracheostomy Tube 90mm L Biocompatible Materials

Constructed from medical-grade, biocompatible materials, this tracheostomy tube offers excellent durability and tolerance. The smooth surface helps reduce tissue irritation, while the tube’s shape is designed to conform naturally to airway anatomy for improved comfort and reduced complications during extended wear.
