What are the types of medical catheter mounts?

Date:2022-11-24
Medical catheter holders are important accessories for respiratory care needs. This device is attached to the end of the endotracheal tube to provide a safe and proper connection between the breathing system and the breathing device. There are several types of catheter holders available, each suitable for different breathing needs.

One of the most common type of catheter mount is an Intersurgical flexible fixed elbow catheter mount. This type of catheter mount is suitable for endotracheal tubes, i-gels and a wide variety of breathing circuits. It is cost effective, simple to use and provides a direct connection to the breathing circuit. It is available in several sizes and is easily customizable. Using an Intersurgical catheter mount also makes it easier to move your patient. You can buy these mounts online or offline. They are available in several lengths and are made of a variety of materials.

A disposable catheter mount is also available. This type is expandable, which means it is lightweight and flexible. This type of catheter mount also offers low resistance to airflow. It also has a double swivel elbow connector, which gives your patient easier access to your breathing equipment. The double swivel eliminates the possibility of dragging on the ET or TT. This type of catheter mount also features an oxygen flowmeter cap that is connected to the suction port. This helps to reduce kinking and clogging.

Another type of catheter mount is a direct connect catheter mount. This is commonly used between an ETT and a capnometer. It is a less expensive option than a T-piece. It is also designed to help reduce the risk of extubation. A direct connect catheter mount can also help to prevent fluid contact between the capnometer and the ETT. This can be especially important when a patient is exposed to water.
