Frequently asked questions
Is this stopper designed for multiple uses?
Yes, the Sklar Decannulation Stopper #2 features a reusable design. It is constructed from durable plastic intended for repeated use, providing long-term value compared to disposable alternatives.
Is this material safe for patients with sensitivities?
Absolutely. This stopper is completely latex-free, manufactured without any natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for patients with latex sensitivities.
Does this provide a complete seal during decannulation?
Yes, it is specifically engineered for full closure capability. It fits securely inside the inner or outer cannula to seal the tube, helping facilitate the patient’s transition to normal oral or nasal breathing.
Where does this stopper physically fit?
Unlike caps that fit externally, this stopper is designed to be inserted directly into the inner or outer cannula of the tracheotomy tube, ensuring a precise and flush fit for effective sealing.
Is the design comfortable for the patient?
Yes, patient comfort is a priority. It features a round tip and a smooth working edge, which helps ensure a proper, comfortable seal against the cannula during the transition process.
Can the patient revert to tube breathing if needed?
Yes, that is a key benefit of this design. While the stopper provides full closure for normal breathing practice, it allows the patient to revert to breathing through the tube easily if any respiratory difficulty occurs.
What are the physical dimensions of the stopper?
The stopper is designed to be compact and precise for medical use, featuring an instrument length of 5/8 inch.
Is this product TAA compliant?
Yes, the Sklar Decannulation Stopper #2 is TAA compliant, meeting the regulatory requirements for medical instrumentation.
Does the product arrive ready for immediate clinical use?
The stopper ships non-sterile. Please ensure it undergoes the appropriate sterilization or cleaning protocols required by your facility’s clinical guidelines before use on a patient.
How should this be maintained between uses?
Because this is a reusable plastic instrument, it should be cleaned and processed according to your clinical facility’s standard protocols for reusable medical devices to ensure safety and hygiene between patient sessions.
