Ambu TubeChek Intubation Detector
(Esophageal Intubation Detector Know As EDD)
Ambu Tubechek (EDD). This disposable esophageal intubation detector
verifies proper endotracheal placement by taking advantage of
anatomical differences between trachea and the esophagus. A very
simple tool that uses the anatomical difference between the
oesophagus and trachea as its working principle. If there is
negative pressure, you are in the oesophagus; if you can aspirate
air, you are in the trachea. If the tube is in the soft,
unsupported oesophagus, the walls will collapse around the end of
the endotracheal tube, creating negative pressure if you attempt to
aspirate air. If the tube is in the rigid trachea, air can easily
be aspirated.
Two versions of the Ambu TubeChek are available, i.e. a syringe and
a bulb version, allowing you to use the device you feel most
comfortable with. The bulb can illuminate in the dark, making it
the ideal choice for EMS services.
• TubeChek Syringe And TubeChek Bulb Are Both Disposable
• No Expiry Date, Making Them Easy To Handle And Store. Shelf Life
Considerations Are No Longer An Issue.
