Tri-anim will distribute the full line of Parker’s revolutionary Flex-Tip Tracheal Tubes, which are designed to facilitate fast, easy intubation, and to prevent damage to the patient’s airway anatomy, even during intubation of difficult airways. Tri-anim will also sell the Parker Flex-It Intubating Stylet which makes it possible to remotely curve the tracheal tube during intubations. Parker plans to introduce several new products in 2008, starting with EasyCurve tubes.
Bob Byers Jr., president and CEO of Tri-anim, said: “The soft ski tip design of their endotracheal tube provides a potential for reduced trauma to the vocal cords and provides our customers with an effective alternative.”
