Atos Medical 7637 Provox LaryTube 8/36, 9.5mm ID x 12mm OD x 36mm

The Atos Medical 7637 Provox LaryTube 8/36 is a soft, flexible silicone tube designed to maintain an open airway for individuals with a tracheostomy or laryngectomy. Measuring 9.5mm in inner diameter (ID), 12mm in outer diameter (OD), and 36mm in length, the LaryTube is intended to provide comfort and safety during breathing and is ideal for individuals who use Provox voice prostheses or other speech devices. This product is essential for maintaining airway patency and facilitating rehabilitation in patients who have undergone surgery affecting their voice and airway.

Key Features:

Soft, Flexible Silicone Construction: The Provox LaryTube is made from medical-grade silicone, ensuring a soft, pliable design that enhances patient comfort. The flexible material reduces irritation to the sensitive stoma area and can conform to the patient's anatomy, promoting a more comfortable fit even during extended use.

Maintains Airway Patency: The primary function of the LaryTube is to keep the airway open, allowing the patient to breathe easily after a tracheostomy or laryngectomy. It prevents the stoma from collapsing or narrowing, ensuring that the airway remains clear and unobstructed, which is critical for patients who rely on tracheostomy tubes or stoma openings for breathing.

Designed for Use with Provox Voice Prostheses: The Provox LaryTube is specifically designed to be compatible with Provox voice prostheses, making it an excellent option for patients who use these devices for speech rehabilitation. It provides a stable, secure airway through which the prosthesis can be inserted and used effectively for speaking, improving the patient’s quality of life.

Ease of Insertion and Secure Fit: The LaryTube is designed to be easy to insert and maintain in place. Its smooth, rounded edges facilitate gentle insertion, minimizing trauma to the stoma and surrounding tissues. Once inserted, the tube stays securely in place without the need for a neck strap or adhesive, although these accessories can be used for additional stability if needed.

Multiple Sizes for Custom Fit: The 7637 model comes in an 8/36 size, with a 9.5mm inner diameter, 12mm outer diameter, and 36mm length. These dimensions are designed to accommodate a variety of patient anatomies, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit. Atos Medical offers multiple size options to ensure that healthcare providers can select the appropriate LaryTube for each individual patient.

Compatible with HME Filters and Speaking Valves: The Provox LaryTube is compatible with Heat and Moisture Exchanger (HME) filters and speaking valves, which can be easily attached to the tube. HME filters help regulate moisture and temperature in inhaled air, improving respiratory comfort and reducing the risk of lung complications. Speaking valves can be attached to the LaryTube to facilitate speech in patients who are undergoing voice rehabilitation.

Low-Maintenance Design: The silicone material is durable and easy to clean, ensuring that the LaryTube can be reused and maintained with minimal effort. Regular cleaning and replacement when necessary can help extend the life of the tube and maintain hygiene for the patient.

Comfortable Long-Term Use: The soft, biocompatible silicone material makes the Provox LaryTube suitable for long-term use without causing discomfort or irritation. This is particularly important for patients who require continuous or extended airway management following a tracheostomy or laryngectomy.
