Cuff pressure gauge
Cuff Pressure Gauge
For the blockage and pressure monitoring of tracheal tubes with large-volume, low-pressure cuffs, equipped with a 68 mm Ø scale and a pressure range of 0 to 120 cm H2O. Includes a 100 cm connection hose and a vacuum valve.
What are cuff pressure gauges used for?
Cuff pressure gauges are used to precisely adjust and monitor the pressure in the cuffs of tracheal tubes and supraglottic airway devices. This helps to prevent compression and necrosis of the tracheal mucosa caused by cuff pressure!
These ergonomic devices are compact, robust, and easily portable. They offer high accuracy and reliability, with the analogue system not requiring external power sources such as electricity or batteries. The colour-coded scale ranges help ensure precise adjustment of the optimal pressure to maintain capillary blood flow in the tracheal mucosa.
Product features of the VBM Cuff Pressure Gauge Monitor:
- Fixation hook: Located on the back of the device for easy attachment.
- Luer connector: On the right side, for connecting to tracheal tubes or supraglottic airway devices.
- Pressure release button: Positioned on the left side and easily operated with the thumb for quick pressure adjustment.
- Colour-coded scale ranges: These facilitate reading the ideal pressure to maintain capillary blood flow in the tracheal mucosa.
- Hand pump with vacuum valve: Allows cuff inflation for secure adjustment.
These features make the device an ideal choice for precise cuff pressure monitoring in clinical and veterinary environments.
