Product information for Melker Universal Emergency Cricothyrotomy Cath. Set 5.0mm
Used for emergency airway access when conventional endotracheal intubation cannot be performed. Airway access is achieved by standard wire-guided (Seldinger) technique via the cricothyroid membrane. Subsequent dilation of the tract and tracheal entrance site permits passage of the emergency airway. Catheter is cuffed to protect and control airway once placed. Airway catheter has radiopaque stripe and standard 15 mm connector. Special Operations Sets are custom packaged in slip peel-pouch design for easy transportation. Special Operations Sets combine 4.0 mm catheter with a 6.0 mm catheter in one package thereby reducing the number of kits needed in the field. Supplied sterile in peel-open packages. Intended for one-time use.
