Ventilation via the 2.4 mm internal diameter Tritube® with cuff - new possibilities in airway management.

The 2.4 mm internal diameter Tritube® seems to facilitate tracheal intubation and to provide unprecedented view of the intubated airway during oral, pharyngeal, laryngeal or tracheal procedures in adults. This technique has the potential to replace temporary tracheostomy, jet-ventilation or extra-corporal membrane oxygenation in selected patients.
