WARNINGS

Appropriate patient monitoring must be used at all times. Failure to monitor the patient may result in loss of therapy, serious injury or death.
Do not obstruct and or modify any part of the interface to avoid hypoxia from loss of therapy.
Do not use with an air entrainer, to avoid over-pressure.
Do not use system near a naked flame or any ignition source, including electrosurgery, electrocautery, or laser surgery instruments. Exposure to oxygen increases the risk of fire that may result in patient injury or death.
Do not crush or stretch tube, to prevent loss of therapy.
For single patient use only. Reuse may result in transmission of infectious substances. Attempting to reprocess will result in degradation of materials and render the product defective.
The lanyard poses a potential risk of strangulation to vulnerable patients (e.g. children).
The lanyard is designed to minimize loading and movement of the tracheostomy tube. Secure the lanyard properly to avoid accidental decannulation or airway damage.
The sputum guard is intended to be detachable which may pose
- a choking risk.
