Sklar Jackson Improved Laryngectomy Tube, Stainless Steel
A stainless steel laryngectomy tube available in sizes 5, 6, 7 and 10, used to maintain an open airway through a laryngectomy stoma.
The Sklar Jackson Improved Laryngectomy Tube is a stainless steel airway device sized to fit a laryngectomy stoma, the permanent opening created when the larynx is surgically removed. This listing covers sizes 5, 6, 7 and 10, allowing the clinical team to match the tube to the individual patient's stoma dimensions as they heal and change over time.
The tube keeps the stoma open and patent, supporting breathing and helping prevent the opening from narrowing or closing, which is a routine part of postoperative and long term care for laryngectomy patients. It is used by ENT surgeons, speech and airway care specialists and nursing staff managing laryngectomy patients in hospital and ongoing outpatient follow up.
Because it is a reusable stainless steel device, it must be cleaned and sterilized between uses according to standard reprocessing protocols, and the fit should be reviewed periodically since stoma size can change as tissue heals, meaning a different size within this range may become appropriate over time.
