  • Patent number: 11744973
    Abstract: A puncture cricothyrotomy set includes a tracheal tube and a puncture cannula arranged therein, which has a rotary actuating device with a handle. By moving the handle about its rotational axis, the puncture cannula can be moved from its puncture position into the tracheal tube far enough that the tip section is arranged completely within the tracheal tube.

  • Patent number: 8726904
    Abstract: A larynx tube (10) for ventilation has a tube shaft (12), which has a ventilation lumen (18), having an oesophageal cuff (28) which is arranged on the tube shaft (12) for blocking the esophagus (14) and having a drainage channel (46) which has a drainage opening (48?) which is arranged distally in respect of the oesophageal cuff (28). The drainage channel (46) is formed by a drainage pipe (44) which is arranged in a longitudinal groove (42) of the tube shaft (12) which is provided on an outer side (40) of the tube shaft (12). The drainage pipe (44) is adhesively bonded and/or welded to the tube shaft (12). The tube shaft (12) has a proximal and a distal longitudinal shaft portion (56, 58) which are adhesively bonded and/or welded to each other. The distal longitudinal shaft portion (58) is constructed as an injection-molded component.

  • Patent number: 5819733
    Abstract: A transpharyngeal tube (10), especially for intubation anaesthesia, has a tube shaft (13) on which an inflatable primary cuff (18) for blocking the pharynx (19) and an inflatable secondary cuff (16) for blocking the esophagus (12) are disposed. At least one application channel (20) is formed on or in the tube shaft (13) which has an application opening (21), located below the primary cuff (18), for application of substances into the trachea (14). The secondary cuff (16) surrounds a tube tip (11) of the tube shaft (13) which seats in the entrance region of the esophagus (12) on an inner wall (15) thereof when the transpharyngeal tube (10) is inserted. This configuration of the transpharyngeal tube (10) facilitates a safe, reproduceable, and directed insertion into the esophagus (12) with which a safe and painless securing of the transpharyngeal tube (10) and controlled application of the application substance into the trachea (14) are guaranteed.
