Shiley Inner Cannula FAQs
What is a fenestrated inner cannula?
A fenestrated inner cannula has small holes or openings that allow air to pass through the tracheostomy tube and into the vocal cords. This enables the patient to speak and breathe more easily when the tracheostomy tube is not connected to a ventilator.
How often should disposable inner cannulae be changed?
The frequency of changing disposable inner cannulae depends on factors like the amount of secretions, the patient's overall health, and the specific recommendations of the healthcare provider. Generally, they are changed once a day or as needed.
