Covidien 8CN85H Shiley Adult Flexible Tracheostomy Tube w/ TaperGuard Cuff
• Model: 8CN85H Covidien
• 8.5mm I.D.
• 12.2mm O.D.
• Disposable Inner Cannula
This medical supply or implant item is securely packaged within its original manufacturer's packaging, which remains undamaged. The inner and outer packaging is intact, ensuring the product's integrity and suitability for medical use.
The 8CN85H is an adult-sized, flexible tracheostomy tube made of PVC with a soft, non‑DEHP plasticizer, measuring 8.5 mm inner diameter and 12.2 mm outer diameter, with a total length of approximately 79 mm. It features a TaperGuard™ cuff, which helps reduce fluid leakage by up to 99% and exerts 18.6% less lateral wall pressure on the trachea compared with traditional cuffs, improving both patient safety and comfort. Insertion is eased by a thinner, less bulky cuff (reducing insertion force by ~39%) and a beveled distal tip designed for percutaneous placement.
Flexibility and airflow performance are key advantages of this design: the flexible tube wall, in conjunction with a larger internal diameter, increases airflow around the outer cannula 242% more when the cuff is deflated—facilitating speech, usual ventilation, and easier weaning. It also includes a color‑coded flange (on disposable-interior models only), a transparent soft flange to reduce skin irritation, and flange openings offset from the neck to enhance airflow and minimize contact-related trauma.
The 8CN85H is supplied as a single sterile unit with a disposable inner cannula (inner diameter 7.5 mm) and an integrated 15 mm connector to support mechanical ventilation. This configuration simplifies routine tracheostomy maintenance—allowing safe, hygienic removal and replacement of the inner cannula to manage secretions and occlusion. The flexibility of the tube and improved design has also been praised in clinical experience for reducing skin breakdown and improving fit over previous legacy models—as described by respiratory therapists adjusting to the newer Shiley™ flexible system.
