TRACOE TECHNIC

High Precision

TRACOE technic refers to medical devices, which allow setting and control of pressure in low pressure cuffs of tracheostomy and endotracheal tubes with high precision.

Constant Pressure

Why is it so important for the cuff to be properly inflated? For one, to ensure sufficient ventilation at all times. For another, to prevent silent aspiration, which under certain circumstances can lead to a nosocomial ventilation pneumonia. It also prevents damage to the trachea (mucosal necrosis, destruction of cartilage, tracheomalacia).

Two Systems, One Goal

TRACOE technic includes two ways to regularly check the cuff pressure. First, the TRACOE cpm handheld manometer, featuring a large, easy-to-read scale (0-100 cmH2O) for quick and easy measurements. The usual pressure range for the application is coloured green.

Second, the fully automatic TRACOE cpc cuff pressure control. It continuously monitors and regulates the pressure in the low pressure cuffs of tracheostomy and endotracheal tubes. Visual and audible alarms warn of leaks or overpressure. TRACOE cpc is compact and lightweight, straightforward and practical to use. It reduces the workload of hospital nursing staff.
