Kimvent Closed Suction System 14 Fr T-piece - 2210

What is MI2210-Each Kimvent Closed Suction System 14 Fr T-piece - 2210?

The MI2210-Each Kimvent Closed Suction System 14 Fr T-piece - 2210 is a medical-grade, disposable suction catheter system designed for patients with artificial airways. It enables safe, closed-system endotracheal or tracheostomy suctioning without disconnecting the patient from the ventilator circuit. Measuring 54cm in length with a 14 French (Fr) catheter, this device maintains ventilation and oxygenation during suction procedures, reducing the risk of lung collapse and infection. It is sterile, individually packaged, and intended for single-patient, short-term use in clinical or home care settings.

Key features

• 14 Fr Catheter Size — Suitable for narrow airways and pediatric or adult patients needing low-profile suction access.
• T-Piece Design — Allows integration into standard 22mm ventilator circuits with ease and secure fit.
• 54cm Length — Provides optimal reach from ventilator to airway without excess tubing.
• 22mm x 22mm Flex Tube — Ensures compatibility with standard breathing circuits and reduces kinking.
• 15 mm Swivel Adapter — Minimizes tension on the airway and improves patient comfort during movement.
• MDI Port — Enables administration of metered dose inhalers without interrupting ventilation.
• Closed System — Maintains PEEP and reduces contamination risk during suctioning.

Who is MI2210-Each Kimvent Closed Suction System 14 Fr T-piece - 2210 for?

This suction system serves critically ill patients with tracheostomies or endotracheal tubes, particularly those on mechanical ventilation in hospitals, long-term care facilities, or home settings. It's ideal for caregivers and clinicians managing respiratory secretions in patients with limited ability to clear their airways. The closed design benefits those at risk of desaturation or infection.

How does MI2210-Each Kimvent Closed Suction System 14 Fr T-piece - 2210 compare?

Compared to open suction systems, the MI2210-Each Kimvent model preserves positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and reduces contamination risk. It outperforms standard polypropylene catheters with its integrated MDI port and swivel adapter for improved functionality. While similar in size to other 14 Fr closed systems, its T-piece configuration offers better circuit stability than inline catheters without T-connectors. It is comparable in price to other branded closed suction systems but offers added clinical benefits over generic alternatives.
