Product information for Positube Esophageal Detector Device
9" x 4"(22.9 x 10.2 cm)
PosiTube is a hand-held, syringe-shaped instrument. It is the only esophageal intubation detection device (EDD) with immediate confirmation and a 90-degree elbow.
Use of an EDD is becoming a standard of care throughout the world. These devices have been proven through scientific studies, to be the most accurate detectors of properly placed endotracheal tubes.
PosiTube provides the healthcare professional with better control of the endotracheal tube and ensures proper endotracheal tube placement, guaranteeing that the patient has life-saving oxygen. Using the "pistol grip," you can hold the PosiTube's patented handle while gripping the elbow and endotracheal tube with your fingers. The "pistol grip" facilitates a horizontal pull preventing accidental extubation, thus eliminating any vertical movement of the endotracheal tube.
PosiTube was designed by a team of paramedics to provide fast, definite esophageal intubation detection. The U.S. and internationally patented PosiTube excels in overcoming on-the-scene distractions and the limitations of other endotracheal tube confirmation techniques.
