Frequently asked questions
Does this strap work with non-Portex tubes?
This strap is specifically engineered for compatibility with Portex tracheostomy systems to ensure optimal performance. While it may potentially fit other systems, we recommend using it with Portex tubes as intended by the manufacturer.
Is the material gentle on the skin?
Yes. The strap is designed with soft padded material and includes a soft foam pad specifically to minimize skin irritation, making it much more comfortable than traditional adhesive tape methods.
Is this strap adjustable for different neck sizes?
Yes, it features an adjustable hook and loop fastening system that allows for a secure, custom fit. It is designed to accommodate adults with a maximum neck size of 18 inches.
Does this require adhesive tape to stay secure?
No, absolutely not. One of the main benefits of this system is that it eliminates the need for adhesive tape entirely, using reliable hook and loop fasteners to keep the tube in place safely.
Are these straps suitable for daily wear?
Yes, the product is specifically designed for comfort during extended use. Its soft, padded construction is built to remain comfortable even when worn for longer periods.
How do the hook and loop fasteners work?
The system allows you to easily thread and secure the strap around the tracheostomy tube flange and neck. The hook and loop design provides a reliable, secure closure that is easy to adjust to the exact tension needed for the patient.
What is the width of the strap?
The strap has a width of 1 inch, providing a balance between secure support and a low-profile, comfortable fit around the neck.
Is this a bulk purchase item?
Yes, this item is supplied in a case of 100 units. It is designed as an efficient, professional-grade solution for clinical and institutional settings.
Are these straps pre-assembled or ready to use?
These are factory new medical accessories provided in a finished state, ready for immediate application using the built-in hook and loop fasteners.
Who manufactures these straps?
These are authentic ICU Medical (formerly Smiths Medical) products, manufactured under the Portex brand line.
