Description

A catheter mount, also known as an endotracheal tube (ETT) connector or breathing circuit connector, is a medical device used in respiratory care to connect an endotracheal tube or tracheostomy tube to a breathing circuit or mechanical ventilator. It typically consists of a flexible tubing with one end attached to the patient's airway device and the other end connected to the breathing circuit or ventilator tubing. Catheter mounts play a crucial role in providing a secure and leak-proof connection between the patient's airway and the mechanical ventilation system. They are designed to minimize the risk of disconnection or accidental extubation while allowing for easy movement and repositioning of the patient. Catheter mounts may include features such as swivel connectors to allow for freedom of movement, suction ports for airway clearance, and filtration systems to prevent contamination. They are available in various sizes and configurations to accommodate different patient populations and clinical settings. In summary, catheter mounts are essential components of respiratory care equipment, ensuring safe and effective delivery of mechanical ventilation to critically ill or ventilator-dependent patients.
