KimVent* Microcuff* Subglottic Suctioning Endotracheal Tubes are indicated for airway management by oral intubation of the trachea and for removal of secretions that accumulate in the subglottic space.
Device Story
Device is a sterile, single-use endotracheal tube featuring a barrel-shaped polyurethane cuff and a dedicated suction lumen with a dorsal opening. It includes a suction valve with an integrated rinse port for sterile saline irrigation or air bolus administration to maintain lumen patency. Used by clinicians for airway management and subglottic secretion removal. The device functions by providing a conduit for ventilation while allowing for the aspiration of accumulated secretions above the cuff to reduce potential complications. The modification involves a change in the adhesive material used to bond the cuff to the tube.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench-top performance testing conducted to verify suctioning efficiency and conformance to ISO 5361:1999. Biocompatibility testing performed per ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993 parts 3, 5, 6, and 10.
Technological Characteristics
PVC tube with barium sulphate radiopaque line; polyurethane barrel-shaped cuff; PVC pilot balloon assembly; ABS suction valve; polypropylene vent connector. Adhesive changed to solvent-based blend. Sterilized, single-use. Conforms to ISO 5361:1999.
Indications for Use
Indicated for airway management via oral tracheal intubation and subglottic secretion removal in patients requiring endotracheal intubation.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A tracheal tube is a device inserted into a patient's trachea via the nose or mouth and used to maintain an open airway.

Eve. They include a separate lumen with a dorsal opening above the cuff to provide access to the subglottic space. The subglottic space is reached via a normally open suction valve which includes a one-way port for rinsing the subglottic space with sterile saline (0.9% Sodium Chloride solution) or administering an air bolus to assist in maintaining a patent suction lumen patency. These devices are sold as disposable, sterile, single use, devices.
KimVent* Microcuff* Subglottic Suctioning Endotracheal Tubes Intended Use: are indicated for airway management by oral intubation of the trachea and for removal of secretions that accumulate in the subglottic space.
Both the modified Kimberly-Clark* KimVent* Microcuff* Technological Subglottic Suctioning Endotracheal Tubes and the predicate Characteristics KimVent* Microcuff* Subglottic Suctioning Endotracheal Tubes have the same basic fundamental technological characteristics. Both are polyvinylchloride tubes with a barrel-shaped polyurethane inflatable cuff and a suction lumen. Both incorporate a suction valve with integrated rinse port to aid in removing secretions that accumulate in the subglottic space. The only difference in the endotracheal tube is the change in a raw material used to bond the cuff to the endotracheal tube. Below is a comparison table that summarizes the technological characteristics of the subject and predicate tubes.
