Who is SA1601450-Each Infant Nasal Cannula, 4' Tubing, Clear, Over Ear for?
The cannula is intended for premature infants, neonates, and infants up to six months who require supplemental oxygen.

Is Infant Nasal Cannula, 4' Tubing, Clear, Over Ear right for you?
Buy the SA1601450-Each Infant Nasal Cannula if you are caring for newborns or infants who need low-flow oxygen therapy. It is suited for clinicians, home-care nurses, and parents comfortable setting up standard oxygen equipment. The device requires basic knowledge of tubing connections and patient positioning. Alternatives include generic pediatric cannulas without an over-ear strap or higher-flow adult models, but they may compromise comfort or safety for tiny patients.
How it compares: Compared with standard adult nasal cannulas, this infant model’s smaller curved prongs, lightweight clear tubing, and over-ear strap deliver superior comfort and secure fit for newborns. Generic pediatric cannulas may lack the three-channel safety tubing, increasing risk of disconnection. For higher flow requirements, adult-grade cannulas are required, but they are bulkier and can irritate delicate skin.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size infant nasal cannula is SA1601450-Each?
▾
The SA1601450-Each cannula is classified as a small infant size, designed for newborns and infants up to approximately six months or 4 kg. Its curved prongs fit the upper lip of tiny patients, and the 4-foot tubing provides enough length for bedside or transport setups while maintaining a low-profile appearance.
Does the over-ear headband adjust to different head sizes?
▾
Yes, the over-ear headband includes soft, elastic loops that can be gently stretched to accommodate a range of infant head circumferences. Adjustments are made by sliding the loops forward or backward until the cannula sits comfortably without excessive pressure, ensuring a secure fit for both static and mobile patients.
How do I connect the cannula to an oxygen source?
▾
To connect the cannula, first ensure the oxygen source is turned off. Attach the three-channel tubing to the regulator’s outlet, then secure the cannula’s connector onto the tubing’s end. Verify that the tubing is free of kinks, then turn the oxygen flow on and adjust the rate to the prescribed setting.
Is the clear tubing reusable?
▾
The clear tubing on the SA1601450-Each cannula is intended for single-patient use and should be replaced after each treatment session. While the material can be cleaned with mild disinfectant, reusing the same tubing may compromise sterility and increase infection risk, so a fresh tube is recommended for each infant.
Can this cannula be used for flow rates above 3 LPM?
▾
No, this cannula is rated for low-flow oxygen up to 3 LPM. Using flow rates above this limit can cause excess pressure on the nasal prongs and increase the risk of tissue damage. For higher flow requirements, a pediatric or adult-size cannula designed for up to 6 LPM should be selected.
