Pylant Monitor

The Pylant Monitor is a disposable single patient use (ETT) cuff pressure monitor.

We monitor blood pressures, intracranial pressures, abdominal pressures, PCWP, CVP what about ETT cuff pressure? Safe endotracheal cuff pressures require measurement and intervention.

The Pylant Monitor is a disposable, single patient use endotracheal tube (ETT) cuff pressure monitor. ETT cuff monitors are used to indicate the pressure within the ETT cuff to prevent inadvertent over or under inflation of the ETT cuff. The practitioner or institutional guidelines determine the exact inflation pressure used. Literature on ETT cuff pressures suggest that pressures between 20 cm H2O and 30 cm H2O are preferred to prevent under and over inflation. The Pylant Monitor is MRI Compatible.

Critical Care

Disposable – Single use
Latex free
Inner Diameter: 6-6.5mm

A new disposable device for use with orotracheal intubation based on clip-on technology.

Product information

Tubeguard is a U-formed semisolid protective device enabling easy fixation of the orotracheal tube and giving protection for teeth and tube.

Tubeguard is made of a plastic material free of latex. The semisolid composition protects the tube and keeps the inner lumen intact.

The Tubeguard is clipped on to the tube before intubation. After correct positioning of the tube has been confirmed, the Tubeguard is slided down on the tube so that the distal end is located below the teeth and the upper end in the angle of the mouth. The composition of the material prevents the tube from moving spontaneously inside the Tubeguard. Tape is used for fixation to the skin.

The small size of the Tubeguard facilitates oral hygiene and removal of secretion and decreases the discomfort for the patient.

At extubation, the tube and Tubeguard are removed en bloc.
The Tubeguard has been developed and tested in collaboration with leading experts in the fields of anaesthesia and intensive care.
