Mallinckrodt Double Swivel Connector, 50EA/CS

Double Swivel Connector, 50EA/CS

This double swivel connector helps reduce torque on tracheal and tracheostomy tubes by moving with the breathing circuit. It fits buyers managing airway circuits who want added access for suction catheter or bronchoscope insertion without changing connectors. A capped port supports access during use, and each connector is clean and individually packaged.

Good Fit For

• Airway circuit setups using tracheostomy tubes
• Airway circuit setups using tracheal tubes
• Workflows that need bronchoscope or suction catheter access

Key Features

• Double swivel connector moves with the circuit to help reduce torque on tracheal or tracheostomy tubes
• Capped port allows insertion of a suction catheter or bronchoscope
• Made for use with tracheostomy tubes and tracheal tubes
• Clean format supports facilities that do not require a sterile connector for this application
• Individually packaged for organized handling and distribution

Applications and Usage

• Reducing circuit torque at the tracheal tube connection point
• Reducing circuit torque at the tracheostomy tube connection point
• Providing access for suction catheter insertion through the capped port
• Providing access for bronchoscope insertion through the capped port

Packaging and Handling

• Packaging: BX.
• This connector is identified as clean rather than sterile.
• Use is limited to tracheostomy tubes and tracheal tubes based on the available product information.
• A capped access port is part of the connector design, which may matter for workflows that require suction or bronchoscopy access.
