Bivona Uncuffed Pediatric Adjustable Flange Tracheostomy Tubes, by Smiths Medical, have some unique features to accommodate young children and infants who need a cuffless tracheostomy tube. These trach tubes have features to fit those small patients with specific anatomy or pathology where a typical pediatric trach tube will not work.
The Bivona Uncuffed Pediatric Adjustable Flange trach tubes come with Smiths Medical Hyperflex technology where silicone and wire are integrated for flexibility, a soft feel, and anti-kinking properties. The Bivona line of trachs are notably soft because of the silicone construction, which is ideal for young patients. These tubes come with an adjustable neck flange that allows for shaft length adjustments and will help the initial trach fitting. The tubes can be adjusted for both horizontal and vertical shaft drop
For the adult version of this trach, see the Bivona Uncuffed Fixed Neck Flange Hyperflex Trach Tubes.
The Bivona trach tubes are packaged sterile and come with an obturator/introducer, a twill trach tie, and a 15mm disconnect wedge.
