Description

The 14 Fr Intubating Stylet is a medical device designed to assist healthcare professionals during the intubation process. It is commonly used in conjunction with an endotracheal tube to facilitate the insertion of the tube into the trachea for maintaining a patient's airway.

The 14 Fr size indicates the French size, which is a unit of measurement for the external diameter of the stylet. This specific size is suitable for a range of patients, offering versatility in various medical settings.

The stylet is typically malleable, allowing it to be shaped to follow the natural curvature of the airway, aiding in the smooth passage of the endotracheal tube. It is an essential tool in emergency medicine, anesthesiology, and critical care, where securing and maintaining a patent airway is crucial for patient care.

Healthcare professionals rely on the 14 Fr Intubating Stylet to enhance the precision and success of endotracheal intubation procedures. Proper training and adherence to established protocols ensure its effective and safe use in clinical settings.

• Made of malleable aluminum covered with plastic sheath, which has a lubricated Satin-SlipÖ surface. Helps reduce friction between stylet and tracheal tube to allow for easy insertion and withdrawal. Sheath extends beyond tip to reduce the risk of trauma should stylet extend beyond tip of tracheal tube.
