4 TRACHEOSTOMY TUBES We provide a wide range of tracheostomy tubes made from various materials and with different design patterns. This diversity is due to the fact that tracheostomy tubes should be ideally matched to the individual requirements of each patient. The doctor, who individually selects and adjusts the tubes for each patient, should be made aware of the complete range to allow him to select the best product for his patients.

11 TRACHEOSTOMY TUBES - LINGO / PHON These tracheostomy tubes have an opening in the upper (convex) wall of the tube shaft facing the larynx, the so-called sieve-fenestration. While most conventional tracheostomy tubes have one or two simple holes the Fahl tracheostomy tubes have an elaborate sieve consisting of many small holes to reduce micro-aspiration and the ingrowth of granulation tissue. If an inner cannula is present, it has an oval opening corresponding to the sieve in the outer cannula. Sieve-fenestrated cannulas are used by tracheostomized patients with intact larynx who are able to speak, or by laryngectomized patients with voice prosthesis who still need a tracheostomy tube to stabilize the trachea and keep the tracheostoma open. In that case the sieve supports the speaking facility provided by the voice prosthesis. Sieve-fenestrated tracheostomy tubes are usually used in combination with a speaking valve.

16 TRACHEOSTOMY TUBES - CUFF Cuffed tracheostomy tubes are used to seal the cannula against the tracheal wall. This is a requirement for artificial ventilation and/or to prevent accidental aspiration of secretions. The soft cuff with very thin walls is typically designed as a high volume/low pressure cuff (hv/lp) and fits snugly into the trachea to ensure a reliable seal. The inflation line is integrated into the wall of the (outer) cannula thus providing a rounded and smooth outer shape to avoid friction and irritations of the delicate mucosa, particularly around the tracheostoma.

20 TRACHEOSTOMY TUBES - LINGO CUFF / PHON These tracheostomy tubes combine the features of a cuffed tracheostomy tube with a sieve-fenestrated one: Cuffed tracheostomy tubes are used to seal the cannula against the tracheal wall.

24 TRACHEOSTOMY TUBES - SUCTION Tracheostomy tubes with suction line are cuffed tubes which offer the option of removing secretions which have accumulated above the inflated cuff. This is achieved by a fine tube which is integrated into the (outer) cannula to retain a rounded and smooth outer shape of the cannula to avoid friction and irritations of the delicate mucosa, particularly around the tracheostoma. The suction line can be connected to any suction unit. It has an orifice right above the cuff to ensure that all secretions can be removed. DURACUFF VARIO SUCTION A.

27 VOICE PROSTHESIS The voice of a laryngectomized patient can be restored by placing a voice prosthesis during or after laryngectomy between the esophagus and the trachea. It restores two vital functions of the larynx: It facilitates a continuous air flow from the lungs via the lower trachea, through the voice prosthesis and the esophagus into the oral cavity. The exhaled air can be used for phonation. And it seals the trachea against the esophagus during eating and drinking. Thus no accidental aspiration of food can occur. There are basically two types of voice prostheses: Indwelling prostheses which need to be exchanged by the physician and non-indwelling prostheses which may be exchanged by the patient himself. A voice prosthesis needs to be replaced for various reasons. E.g. after a certain time the valve may not close properly anymore due to Candida growth or other sediments which may lead to aspiration or an enhanced air flow resistance. For details on this kind of surgical voice rehabilitation a specialized physician should be consulted.

30 SPEAKING VALVES Speaking valves facilitate speaking for tracheotomized patients with a partly or fully intact larynx. They allow the patients to speak without finger occlusion of the tracheostoma. They open during inhalation and close during exhalation thereby guiding the exhaled air through the larynx, the vocal cords and the mouth cavity. Thus the patient is able to speak. They also provide enhanced hygiene since finger occlusion is no longer necessary. Speaking valves are available in various versions. They come with 15 connectors for attachment to tracheostomy tubes or with 22 adapters for attachment to stoma buttons and base plates or with the unique Fahl multiadapter which combines both connector/adapter types. Open position speaking valves are closed by the patient s own exhalation pressure, closed position speaking valves automatically close after inhalation thereby reducing the exhalation effort required by the patient and minimizing potential fatigue and exhaustion. Some speaking valves are combined with a heat-and-moisture exchange (HME) filter to pre-warm and pre-humidify the inhaled air along with filtering off dust particles of the inhaled air.

33 HME FILTER CASSETTES / BASE PLATES The HME (Heat-Moisture-Exchanger) filter cassettes, condition the air, protect the lower airways, improve the quality of speech and are simple to use,. A tracheostomy results in a loss of mouth/nose breathing, this means that the filtering, warming and humidification of the air has to happen in a different way. To prevent irritation of the airways, due to dry air, dust or harmful substances contained in the air, a filter is required. After surgery, tracheostomised/laryngectomised patients frequently suffer from increased production of mucous and coughing. These symptoms can impair speech rehabilitation and breathing. The regular use of HME filter cassettes with Heat and Moisture Exchangers alleviates the symptoms and increases the quality of life. Comfortable stoma closure The housing of the HME filter cassettes facilitates speaking for laryngectomised patients with a voice prosthesis. The stoma is closed for speaking with the simple touch of a finger, even through clothing. As soon as the finger is removed, the air can pass though the HME to facilitate unimpaired inhalation and exhalation. Inconspicuous Thanks to their low profile the HME filter cassettes are very inconspicuous. They are either connected to tracheostomy tubes or to stoma buttons or to special base plates. The user must take care to select the right connector/adapter. Most tracheostomy tubes have a 15 connector, stoma buttons and base plates have a 22 adapter. Fahl HMEs are available with either 15 connectors or 22 adapters or the unique combi-adapter which facilitates the connection to both types Base Plates are used by laryngectomized patients. They are self-adhesive carrier systems for HMEs or tracheostoma valves (speaking valves for laryngectomized patients). We offer many types of base plates with various shapes and sizes, made of different materials and with different adhesive strengths. They are selected according to the anatomy of the tracheostoma and the type of skin in order to achieve a long wearing period with an optimal attachment. An HME or tracheostoma valve may be fitted in the central opening with its 22 adapter. They can be changed separately from the base plate. LARYVOX HME LARYVOX HME HighFlow LARYVOX O 2 HME O 33

41 TRACHEAL COMPRESSES Tracheal Compresses (Dressings) are basically used for two reasons. They cushion the neck flange of a tracheostomy tube against the skin to avoid leasons, pain and pressure necroses. They further absorb tracheal secretions. Tracheal compresses are available in numerous types, differing in material, number of layers, size, shape and colour. Aluminium coated compresses and foam compresses reduce the adhesion of the compress to dried secretions or clotted blood and thus facilitate an atraumatic replacement. Compresses with a slit facilitate the replacement without the need to use a pair of scissors to cut them open or to remove the tracheostomy tube. For iediate post-operative use and open wounds a sterile compress should be used.

44 CLEANING AND CARE OF TUBES For reasons of hygiene and to avoid the risk of infection, the tracheostomy tubes should be thoroughly cleaned at least twice a day, more often during heavier secretion production. Our range of cleaning devices include products for gentle and hygienic cleaning and disinfection. Great care must be taken when handling tracheostomy tubes, especially when cleaning the tube with a cannula-cleaning brush. Should sharp edges or even cracks ever appear on a tracheostomy tube, on no account use it again, as this could lead to injuries of the mucous membranes in the trachea. Constant checking prevents potentilal injuries! OPTIBRUSH SET OPTIBRUSH CLEAN g OPTIBRUSH CONT OPTICIT ml OPTIFLUID Stoma oil 1 25 ml OPTIFLUID Stoma oil towel ml OPTIBRUSH OPTIBRUSH PLUS

50 TRACHEOSTOMA PROTECTION The tracheostoma reacts particularly sensitive to all outside influence. Since after a tracheostomy or a laryngectomy breathing occurs no longer through the mouth and the nose but through the tracheostoma some of the body s natural protective measures are lost. It is therefore important to attach specific care to the protection of the tracheostoma. This refers particularly to the humidification, warming and filtering of the inhaled air. The lack of these protective mechanisms may have an adverse effect on the health. For example, a chilled trachea often results in damaging the delicate mucous membranes. These, in turn, perform such important tasks as the transportation or fluids and the movement of foreign bodies out of the upper and lower airways were they normally can be coughed up. The dissication of the tracheal mucosa will cause irritations and increased secretion, partially with the formation of encrustations. Our products for trachestoma protection replace the necessary protective mechanisms. On the one hand they protect the tracheostoma and trachea from the cold and from drying out on the other hand they prevent the ingress of dirt particles and absorb leaking secretions. Without tracheostoma protection the inhaled air would enter through the tracheostoma too cold and too fast. Specific protection items provide a barrier, reducing the speed or the airflow, warming and humidifying the air. At the same time tracheostoma protection products provide visual protection and with it, a certain degree of security. Our tracheostoma protection products combine aesthetics with comfort. The neckerchiefs and scarves, for example, are offered in fashionable, attractive design patterns.

54 INHALATION AND AIR HUMIDIFICATION After a laryngectomy or tracheostomy, the breathing will have changed. The patient now breathes through a tracheostoma. In mouth/nose breathing, the inshaled air is naturally kept moist. After the loss of this natural humidification effects of the mucous membranes a different method is required in order to prevent severe irritation by dissication of the mucous membranes. In most cases this type of severe irritation leads to increased secretion, coughing and encrustation. To avoid these consequences, it is essential to inhale regularly and ensure that the airways are continuously kept at a constant air humidity of approx %.

56 TRACHEAL SUCTION DEVICES Tracheal suction devices are important devices for the care after a laryngectomy or tracheostomy. After surgery, patients generally experience increased secretion. This means great stress for the respiratory system, leading to irritation and coughing. A tracheal suction device is an important tool, helping to remove secretions from the respiratory tract. The tracheal suction device is also a great help in other situations, for example, to alleviate respiratory diseases. In such cases, the tracheal suction device facilitates breathing by relieving the tracheostoma from excessive bronchial secretions. Before using a tracheal suction device, please note the instructions included in the respective device s instruction manual. Suction takes place through sterile stoma catheters, which we offer in various sizes and types.

58 SPEECH AIDS/VOICE AMPLIFIERS After successful laryngectomy, it is most important for the patient to be able to speak as quickly as possible again and to be well understood. That is why we recoend speech therapy by a certified speech therapist. The speech therapist will usually start speech rehabilitation with the esophageal voice. Parallel to this, speaking with an electronic speech aid can also be a part of the voice rehabilitation. The electronic speech aid generates sound oscillations, these are transmitted to the mouth/pharynx area when the device is slightly pressed to the neck, and can thereby transform the normal speech motions into comprehensible speech. The VOICETEC voice amplifier enables excellent amplification of a quiet oesophageal voice and is also well suited for patients/users with vocal chord damage. It can be used whenever a louder conversation volume is desired, to, e.g., be understood even with high levels of background noise. With the help of the VOICETEC voice amplifier, it is possible, even without strenuous attempts, to speak loudly. The wireless, radio-controlled transmitter unit enables the greatest of mobility. This extends the patient s comfort and field of application. VOICETEC ElectroLarynx Speech Aid LARYVOX Alarm

60 SIZING TRACHEOSTOMY TUBES Tracheostomy tubes are available in different materials and different versions. A good fit of the cannula is essentially determined by two factors, the cannula diameter and the cannula length. As the sizing of the individual cannula manufacturers is based on different measuring principles, these cannot always be directly LARYNGOTEC PHONTRACH DURAVENT LARYNGOTEC Button SILVERVENT Tip Tip Tip Shield Shield Tip Shield CIRCULAR TEMPLATES To determine the outer diameter at the cannula tip in.

For example, because of the thick-walled material, a non-metal cannula has a smaller inner volume than the thin-walled silver cannula. In comparison, the inner diameter at the cannula tip will therefore play a role. In some tracheostomy tubes, the lengths of the middle radius or the middle length are
