Tracoe®expercPercutaneous System
Tracoe®expercPercutaneous tracheostomy system
Percutaneous dilation tracheostomy setswith atraumatic inserter
A proven technique• Percutaneous dilation tracheostomy has established itself as a standard procedure in intensive care medicine. The Ciaglia technique is the one most widely used. The Tracoe experc system is based on this proven method. There is no need to learn a new procedure. The sets are tailored for the use of unfenestrated and fenestrated tubes including tubes with subglottic suction line (Tracoe twist, Tracoe twist Plus and Tracoe vario, not fenestrated).
The Innovation• Inserting the Tracheostomy tube can be a challenge. The Tracoe experc sets deliver the solution in the form of the unique, patented atraumatic inserter. A silicone sleeve at the tip of the insertion instrument smoothly bridges the gap between the inserter and the tube. This allows the tube to be inserted easily and safely.
Option for Reinsertion• For difficult reinsertion situations unfenestrated and fenestrated Tracoe twist, twist Plus and unfenestrated Tracoe vario tubes are available. They are available individually premounted with the atraumatic inserter. The Seldinger guide wire should be used in any difficult situation.
The Experc Percutaneous Kit is available with:
• Tracoe twist tracheostomy tubes with atraumatic inserter• Tracoe twist Plus tracheostomy tubes with atraumatic inserter• Tracoe vario tracheostomy tubes with atraumatic inserter
The tracheostomy tubes with atraumatic inserter are alsoavailable separately.

The special feature of the Tracoe experc percutaneous dilation tracheostomy set is the atraumatic inserter of the tracheostomy tube.
• Its tip has a folding silicone sleeve that smoothly bridges over the inserter and end of the tube (fig1 ).
• The inserter has a precise fit into the tube and a stop at the 15mm connector. Once the tube is in the trachea the inserter is pulled out of the tube. In doing so the silicone sleeve rolls back to allow easy removal (fig 2).
Fig.1 A collapsible sleeve at thetip of the introducer enables aunique stepless transitionbetween the inserter tip andthe patient end of the tube.
Key features
• The atraumatic inserter ensures a stepless transition between the inserter and tracheostomy tube minimising the risk of injuring the trachea during tube insertion.• The atraumatic inserter is pre-loaded and should not be removed from the tube prior to use.
• The separately available Tracoe twist, with atraumatic inserter can also be used for reinsertion or the changing of tubes after percutaneous tracheostomy.

The special feature of the Tracoe experc percutaneous dilation tracheostomy set is the atraumatic inserter of the tracheostomy tube.
• The system consists of two parts: the white guiding catheter with silicone sleeve and the green inserter fitted into the inner cannula of the tracheostomy tube. The silicone sleeve smoothly bridges over the gap in diameter between the end of the tube and the inserter thus minimising the risk of injury when inserting the tracheostomy tube into the trachea (see fig 1).
• The Tracoe twist Plus ‘P’ tracheostomy tubes are delivered pre-mounted, including the guide catheter with the atraumatic insertion system, into the inner

cannula with the 15mm connector. The insertion system stabilises and assists guiding the tube; it provides a precise fit into the tube and a stop at the 15mm connector.
• Once the tube is in the trachea the green inserter and the white guiding catheter with silicone sleeve are grabbed as a unit and removed together. By doing so, the silicone sleeve flaps back and the guiding catheter can be removed easily (see fig.2). The Seldinger guide wire can be removed either prior or together with the white guiding catheter. Alternatively the green inserter can be removed first, followed by the white guiding catheter and the Seldinger guide wire. Note: under no circumstances should the white guiding catheter be removed first.

unique swivelling neckplate
The most outstanding feature of Tracoe twist and twist Plus is the anatomicallyshaped neck flange that moves around two axes: vertically (a) and horizontally(b). The neck strap can be easily attached while the tube is in situ (c).
Tracheostomy Tubes
At last, a tube you and your patients canfeel comfortable with!
Maximum Mobility• Tracoe twist and twist Plus has a unique swivelling neck plate – anatomically shaped, moving around 2 axes i.e. moving in a horizontal and vertical direction. This allows the patient to turn his neck freely in all directions in comfort and to reduce pressure problems from movement from the distal end of the tube digging into the tracheal mucosa. The anatomical shaped neck flange ensures a perfect fit onto the neck, providing a major comfort feature.
• The Tracoe twist and twist Plus tubes are more flexible compared with other styles of plastic tubes – this material is light and flexible and with body temperature becomes even more supple – contributing to outstanding comfort for the patient.
• The wall thickness of the tube is much thinner than a standard plastic tube. This allows a greater volume of inspired air to enter the tube. Therefore, the clinician can choose a larger diameter of tube for the patients trachea.
• Positive locking of the inner cannula is achieved by the Tracoe twist and twist Plus inner cannula in the outer tube housing. The arrow on the 15mm connector indicates correct positioning so confidence is provided that the inner cannula is securely in place – particularly important when using with ventilators.
High Acceptance• Tracoe twist and twist Plus tracheostomy tubes are suitable throughout the ‘life’ of the tracheostomy – from initial theatre use – to long term use in the community – as they feature weaning caps, which fit over the outer housing; to speaking valves, which of course allows communication to take place – a vital motivation for all tracheostomised patients.

Subglottic Suctioning - Benefits
Subglottic suctioning offers the following key benefits:
• Accumulated subglottic secretions can be suctioned off at the lowest point, in other words, right above the cuff. This reduces the risk of bacterially contaminated secretions entering the lower respiratory tract and the risk of developing aspiration pneumonia.
• The suction line is integrated into the wall of the tube to avoid any pressure marks in the tracheostoma. Via this line, secretions can be suctioned off.
• Tracoe twist tracheostomy tubes with subglottic suctioning. Ref 306 / 306-P
The Tracoe® twist range of tracheostomy tubes withsubglottic suction lines are designed to delivermaximum performance and provide an importanttool in the management of ventilator-associatedpneumonia (VAP) which is associated with patientsin intensive care situations.

Tracoe twist ‘P’ tubes - key features
Fig.1 A collapsible sleeve at theintroducer tip enables a uniquestepless transition between theinserter tip and the patient endof the tube.
Fig.2 After the tube withatraumatic inserter is insertedinto the trachea the inserter ispulled out. Thereby the siliconesleeve turns down and theinserter can be removed easily.
The special feature of the Tracoe twist ‘P’ tube is theatraumatic insertion system.
• A unique stepless transition between the inserter tip and the tracheostomy tube is achieved by a collapsible sleeve at the tip of the introducer (fig. 1).
• The atraumatic inserter is supplied fitted into the tube and should not be removed prior to use.
• The atraumatic inserter fits exactly into the tube and bears a safety-stop at the neck flange. After the tube with atraumatic inserter is inserted into the trachea the inserter is pulled out. Thereby the silicone sleeve turns down and the inserter can be easily removed (fig. 2).

Tracheostomy Tubes
A flexible tube with a patented variablyadjustable neck flange
33
The unique Tracoe vario• Tracoe vario - the flexible tube with the patented adjustable neck flange. By means of a practical locking mechanism, the neck flange can be moved and adjusted individually to any patient.
• A length marker ensures the exact positioning of the neck flange in preparation to change tubes (a).The flange will move by depressing the grey side panels on the flange. The flange is fixed immediately after it is released. Additionally the neck flange will be securely locked by pulling up the orange lever (b).
A Perfect Fit• The pliable wings on the flange can be adjusted independently of one another (c). This provides additional possibilities for meeting the unique anatomical requirements of each patient.
• Tracoe vario tracheostomy tubes are made of clear plastic and come in several versions. Reinforced with metal spiral, or non reinforced (with an x-ray contrast line) with or without low pressure cuff, with subglottic suction line and in an extra long version.
Now with subglottic suction• Accumulated subglottic secretions can be suctioned off at the lowest
point, in other words, right above the cuff. This reduces the risk of bacterially contaminated secretions entering the lower respiratory tract and the risk of developing aspiration pneumonia.
• The suction line is integrated into the wall of the tube to avoid any pressure marks in the tracheostoma. Via this line, secretions can be suctioned off. Tracoe vario tracheostomy tubes with subglottic suctioning. Ref 470 / 470-P / 471

Tracheostomy Tubes
A range of comfortable, flexible, uncuffedtracheostomy tubes
Lightweight, Soft and Flexible• Tracoe comfort tracheostomy tubes are made of clear medical- grade polymer material which makes them both especially soft and very lightweight. They do not have to be removed for X-ray or cobalt therapy. A Tracoe comfort tube weighs only about one third the weight of a silver tube of the same size. Because they are transparent it is also very easy to ensure that they are perfectly clean.
As Comfortable as Possible• As the name suggests, Tracoe comfort tubes are designed to be as comfortable as possible for permanent wearers after tracheostomy or laryngectomy. Their discreet appearance is an added benefit.
Many Models and Sizes• Every tube model comes in many different sizes and lengths with and without speaking valves. Kapitex can supply special customised tubes for any individual - any size or length can be made to ensure maximum comfort for the wearer. For more information contact Kapitex.
