The Shiley™ oral/nasal endotracheal tube with intermediate cuff can be used for paediatric through adult patients.
DEHP is very toxic and hazardous to organism health and its exposure has been shown to have many adverse effects.¹ Compared to the legacy version, the Shiley™ oral/nasal endotracheal tube with intermediate cuff is made with non-DEHP PVC material, which softens at body temperature and molds to the airway.
