Instructions for Use for TRACOE® twist plus

Tracheostomy Tubes

NOTE:

• Please read the instructions for use carefully. They are part of

the described product and must be available at all times. For your

own and your patients’ safety, please observe the following safety

information.

• The illustrations to which the text refers can be

found on the (foldout) illustrated pages at the beginning of these

instructions. The numbers and letters in brackets refer to the

respective illustrations and product components of the tracheos-

tomy tube. The symbols and icons used are explained on pages 1

to 5.

1. General Information

CAUTION: The product may only be used by physicians and other

trained staff responsible for the patient’s care! The attending doctor

must determine the correct size and type.

Intended Purpose: This medical device is a tracheostomy tube.

Functional Description: The tracheostomy tube ensures that

respired air passes through the tracheostoma.

• The inﬂated cuff separates the upper from the lower respira-

tory tract, preventing the ﬂow of air from the lungs into the mouth

and vice versa. This ensures that the patient can breathe only

through the tube. The cuff is inﬂated by ﬁlling it with air using the

inﬂation line. When inﬂated, the cuff seals the space between the

trachea and the outer cannula wall. This allows efﬁcient ventilation

with ventilation equipment and prevents subglottic secretions from

entering the lower respiratory tract.

• Fenestrated cannulas allow some of the air needed for

speaking to reach the upper respiratory tract through the fenestra-

tion. Airway resistance in the upper respiratory tract is also reduced.

• See below for a more detailed functional description.

EN

10 11

Maximum Useful Life of the Tracheostomy Tube:

• with cuff - 29 days,

• without cuff - 5 weeks,

from ﬁrst use (see Chapter 5 “General Precautions”). This maximum

period of use also includes any periods when the tracheostomy

tubes or inner cannulas are not in use.

Product for Single-Patient Use: Multiple use by one and the same

patient during the period of use is permitted.

Product Info Card: This product is supplied with a product info card

with two detachable labels. The labels show product details. Keep

the info card separately to facilitate reordering. The detachable label

can be afﬁxed to the patient’s medical records, for example.

2. General Description

The product consists of an outer cannula (1) with a cuff (2) or without

a cuff and an inner cannula with a 15 mm connector (3), which is

already inserted in the outer cannula and is locked with a locking

ring (4). Two replacement inner cannulas (9/9a), each with a 15 mm

connector, are also supplied.

The cuff is inﬂated or deﬂated using the ﬁlling valve with pilot balloon

(2a), which can be found on the inﬂation line (2b).

The outer cannula is made of a radiopaque polyurethane and is

attached to a neck ﬂange (5) that can swivel on 2 axes (cardanic

suspension).

The perforated obturator (6) is already inserted in the inner cannula

and makes it easier to insert the tube. The perforation also allows

the use of a Seldinger wire (Ø 1.27 ± 0.04 mm, e.g. REF 518) for

cannulation/recannulation.

3. Indications

The products are suitable for patients where access to the respira-

tory tract is required via a tracheostoma.

• Tubes without a cuff are particularly suited for patients who

breathe spontaneously but need to use a tube.

• Tubes with a cuff are suitable for patients where access to

the respiratory tract is required via a tracheostoma with the trachea

sealed.

• Fenestrated tubes facilitate speech in patients with an intact

larynx.

• Tubes with a suction line (7) are for use in patients where

suction of subglottic secretion is indicated.

EN

12 13

4. Contraindications

4.1 Absolute contraindications

• Do not use the occlusion cap (10)/ speaking valve in laryn-

gectomised patients (patients without a larynx) - risk of suffocation!

4.2 Relative contraindications

Relative contraindications are cases where the risks and beneﬁts of

the procedure must be carefully evaluated:

• Paediatric use

• Unusually deep-lying trachea (e.g. in obese patients) or difﬁ-

cult anatomical conditions

5. General Precautions

• You are strongly advised to keep a ready-to-use spare tube

and several spare inner cannulas at the patient’s bedside. Store in a

clean and dry state.

• Check the tube for integrity and correct function prior to use/

insertion. Check, for example, for the absence of obstruction, cuff

seal, correct and stable ﬁt of the inner cannula inside the outer can-

nula, absence of kinks, stable connection between the tube and

neck ﬂange, etc. The cuff material must not be brittle. If the product

is damaged, replace with a new product.

• Do not use force on the tracheostomy tube, as this may

damage or break it. If the connections at the 15 mm connector are

tightly ﬁxed, always use a disconnect wedge approved for tracheos-

tomy tubes.

• Keep the 15 mm connector (3) clean and dry.

• When changing the inner cannula, always ensure that the

inﬂation line (2b) of the cuff is not positioned between the inner and

outer cannulas as it may get trapped and damaged.

• When repositioning the patient in bed, ensure that the patient

does not lie on the pilot balloon (2a), as this would increase the cuff

pressure and may damage the trachea.

• During mechanical ventilation and frequent changes of the

patient’s position or manipulation of the tube, the inner cannula may

become separated from the outer cannula.

• The use of tracheostomy tubes can lead to pressure points

and skin irritation. To avoid this, we recommend placing a pad

underneath the neck ﬂange (e.g. TRACOE purofoam REF 958 or

REF 959 or TRACOE softpad REF 969).

• To avoid damage to the material, the cuff should not be in

contact with lidocaine-containing aerosols or any ointments.

• All components of the cuff inﬂation system must lie freely and

without kinks during the cuff pressure check. Otherwise it is possible

EN

12 13

that the pressure will be displayed incorrectly.

• Thin cuffs are to some extent permeable to water vapour.

Therefore, condensate may accumulate in the cuff. Where quantities

are small, this is of no signiﬁcance. However, if larger quantities of

condensate are inadvertently aspirated into the inﬂation line, it is no

longer possible to measure and adjust the cuff pressure correctly

and the tube must be replaced. Before removing the tube, remove

as much air or water from the cuff as possible using a syringe.

• When using together with other medical devices, the respec-

tive instructions for use must be observed. If in doubt, contact the

manufacturer.

• The use of cuffed tubes on aircraft is not advisable without

permanent cuff pressure regulation, as ﬂuctuations in the cuff pres-

sure may occur during the ﬂight.

6. Warnings

• Do not use if the sterile packaging is not intact.

• Use the locking ring (4) to loosen the inner cannula (C). Do

not turn the 15 mm connector (3), as this may cause the inner can-

nula inside the outer cannula to rotate and the air supply to be inter-

rupted.

• Never use fenestrated inner cannulas for ventilation.

• Use the occlusion cap (10) only with fenestrated tubes (outer +

inner cannula) and an uninﬂated cuff.

• Do not use a speaking valve when the patient is asleep.

• When using laser or electrosurgical treatment equipment,

ensure that the tracheostomy tube is at a safe distance. There is a

risk of ﬁre and toxic gases and the tube may get damaged.

• Select the correct tube to ensure that the fenestration (if

applicable) is positioned in the tracheal lumen at a sufﬁcient distance

from the stoma canal. Poor positioning exposes ventilated patients

to the risk of emphysema. Granulation tissue may also form or air-

way resistance may increase if speaking valves or occlusion caps

are used.

• If a fenestrated tube is used, there is a risk of increased for-

mation of granulation tissue.

• The cuff pressure can change, for example due to altitude

changes (e.g. in an aircraft), or if laughing gas is used as an anaes-

thetic or during the connection of a handheld manometer.

• Excessive cuff pressure poses a risk of permanent damage

to the trachea.

• Excessive cuff pressure may cause cuff herniation.

• Insufﬁcient cuff pressure may result in inadequate ventilation

and poses a risk of aspiration.

EN

14 15

• Ensure that the correct Luer connectors are used (e.g. 2a +

7a).

• During insertion and removal of the tube, irritation, the need

to cough or bleeding may occur.

7. Adverse Reactions

Pressure points, skin irritation, granulation tissue, the need to cough,

difﬁculty swallowing and bleeding.

8. Inserting the Tube

8.1 Preparing the Tube

1. Check the pack content for completeness (D).

2. For tubes with a cuff, check the cuff (2) for leakage by inﬂat-

ing it. For this purpose, inﬂate the cuff with a handheld manometer,

for example the TRACOE cuff pressure monitor REF 720, to a pres-

sure of 50 cm H22O (≈ 36.78 mm Hg) and wait for 1 minute to see

whether the cuff becomes deﬂated. If the cuff is leak-tight, remove

all air from the cuff with a syringe. Push the cuff upwards in the

direction of the neck ﬂange (5) to facilitate insertion. If there is any

leakage, use a replacement tube and return the defective product as

instructed in Chapter 13.

8.2 Preparing the Patient

• Ensure that the patient is well pre-oxygenated before cannu-

lation or recannulation.

• Slightly overextend the patient’s neck, if possible, to facilitate

insertion.

• In case complications arise during cannulation or recannula-

tion, a tube with a smaller diameter should be at hand for emer-

gency use. In addition, take appropriate safety measures that allow

the doctor to carry out short-term ventilation using translaryngeal

intubation or a laryngeal mask.

8.3 Inserting the Tube

Carry out the following steps:

1. When inserting the tube (1), take care that the obturator (6) is

not inadvertently pushed back into the tube. This can easily be pre-

vented by holding both the tube and obturator ﬁrmly with one hand.

To aid insertion, apply a thin layer of water-soluble lubricant to the

protruding part of the obturator at the patient end and to the adja-

cent section of the tracheostomy tube, including the cuff.

2. Once the tube has been inserted into the patient’s trachea,

remove the obturator immediately.

3. For ventilation, securely connect the inner cannula with the

EN

14 15

standardised 15 mm connector (3) to a ventilation machine.

For Cuffed Tubes:

4. Inﬂate the cuff via the ﬁlling valve (2a). Adjust the cuff pres-

sure to the individual ventilation therapy and check at regular inter-

vals. Typically, the pressure should be between 20 cm H22O (≈

15 mm Hg) and 30 cm H22O (≈ 22 mm Hg).

A fall in cuff pressure occurs when a handheld manometer is

attached. This effect is more pronounced with smaller tubes.

5. Attach the neck strap (12) to the neck ﬂange (5) to ﬁx the

tube in place on the patient’s neck.

6. Check the position of the tube as well as its correct function

(see Chapter 6 “Warnings”). If required, carefully suction the trachea

and tube to ensure that the airways are unobstructed.

7. Now check the cuff pressure to ensure that the cuff has not

been damaged during insertion.

8.4 Removing the Tube

Prepare to remove the tube as follows:

• Bend the patient’s head slightly backwards and

• Completely deﬂate the cuff of cuffed tubes (see Chapter 8.5).

8.5 Deﬂating the Cuff

Before deﬂating the cuff, ensure that as little secretion as possible

can enter the bronchia.

While the cuff is being deﬂated, secretions should be removed using

a suction catheter inserted through the tube. If a tube with subglottic

suction has been used, the subglottic space should also be suc-

tioned before deﬂating the cuff, see Chapter 9.5.

To deﬂate the cuff, connect a syringe with a standard male Luer

connecter to the ﬁlling valve (2a). Completely remove all air/any pos-

sible condensate

If the cuff cannot be deﬂated, the following measures should be

taken:

• Remove the inner cannula. Ensure that the inﬂation line (2b)

is not kinked and repeat the deﬂation of the cuff.

• If it is still not possible to remove the air/condensate from the

cuff, carefully cut through the inﬂation line between the 15 mm con-

nector (3) and the neck ﬂange (5).

9. Handling

9.1 Changing the Inner Cannulas

If viscous secretion collects in the inner cannula and cannot be suc-

EN

16 17

tioned, thus impeding the airﬂow, replace the inner cannula with a

new or cleaned inner cannula.

Loosen the inner cannula by turning (C) the locking ring (4) and

remove. Once a new inner cannula has been inserted into the outer

cannula, lock in place by turning (C) the locking ring (4) until it clicks

into place.

When inserting the inner cannula, ensure that the inﬂation line (2b) of

the cuff is not lying between the inner and outer cannulas, otherwise

it may get trapped and damaged.

9.2 Fenestrated Tracheostomy Tubes

Unfenestrated inner cannulas have white locking rings and are

used, for example, during ventilation.

To allow the patient to speak, insert a fenestrated inner cannula

(blue locking ring) in the fenestrated outer cannula. Once the cuff

has been deﬂated, a speaking valve can be placed on the 15 mm

connector of this inner cannula. The instructions for use of the

respective speaking valve must be observed.

9.3 Occlusion Cap of the Fenestrated Tube for Weaning

The fenestrated inner cannula can be closed by attaching the

enclosed occlusion cap (10) to the 15 mm connector.

CAUTION: When preparing the tube, ensure that the patient’s upper

respiratory tract is unobstructed. The upper respiratory tract can be

cleared by coughing out or suctioning the secretion. The cuff must

be deﬂated. When closing the tube, the patient’s breathing and vital

signs must be monitored by a nursing professional. If any signs of

breathing difficulties are detected, the occlusion cap must be

removed immediately.

9.4 Keeping the Fenestration Open

If the tube is used over a prolonged period, it must be ensured at

regular intervals that the fenestration is not blocked by secretions,

incrustation or in-growing tissue. If required, replace the tube.

9.5 Application of REF 316, REF 888-316

with Subglottic Suction Line

These tubes are ﬁtted with a soft smooth ﬂat plastic element (7) that

is ﬁxed to the outer curve of the outer cannula and ends with two

openings immediately above the cuff (2). A suction line (7b) is inte-

EN

16 17

grated into this element. The suction line has a female Luer connec-

tor (7a) at its free end, through which any secretions can be

removed using a syringe. Alternatively, a special suction device with

a vacuum controller connected to the enclosed connectors (11) can

be used. After suctioning, ensure that the Luer connector (7a) is

closed.

CAUTION:

• Ensure during suctioning that no excessive vacuum is used

over a prolonged period (maximum of 200 mbar).

• To prevent the subglottic area from drying out, we recom-

mend the use of intermittent suction.

• The suction line may get blocked due to accumulated secre-

tions or adhesions to the tracheal mucosa. If it is intended to rinse

the subglottic suction line (e.g. with a small amount of air or phys-

iological saline solution), ensure beforehand that the cuff is sufﬁ-

ciently inﬂated (risk of aspiration).

• The subglottic suction line may cause pressure points in the

area of the tracheostoma or may cause the tracheostoma to

become irregular. In such cases, the doctor must decide whether

this type of tube can still be used.

10. Cleaning, Disinfection and Storage

10.1 Cleaning

The tube (outer and inner cannulas) must be cleaned before reuse.

Lukewarm potable water can be used for cleaning. TRACOE medi-

cal recommends the use of the cleaning products offered by

TRACOE for cleaning. Once the tubes have been cleaned, rinse with

potable water and air-dry. When cleaning the outer cannulas, take

care not to damage the cuff.

CAUTION:

• Never use aggressive domestic cleaning agents, cleaning

agents for dentures or solvents with a high alcohol content, for

example, as these may have a lasting adverse effect on the function.

• Do not heat the tubes to temperatures above 60°C, as the

safety of the products can then no longer be guaranteed.

10.2 Disinfection

Should disinfection appear necessary TRACOE medical can provide

a list of disinfectants on request. The use of unsuitable disinfectants

can result in damage to the product.

Once the tubes have been disinfected, rinse with sterile water, dis-

tilled water or potable water and air-dry.
