Metal Versus Plastic Tracheostomy Tube. What is the Difference? Shiley, Jackson, Portex, Tracoe

Tracheostomy tubes come in different styles and can be made from various materials such as metal and plastic. While there are many similarities, there are some major differences such as MRI safety, 15 mm connectors, flexibility, cost, durability, cuffed and uncuffed versions, fenestrations, etc. Join me this week as I explore similarities and differences as well as pros and cons between metal and plastic tracheostomy tubes. #lifewithavent #trach #jackson

wondering about snow skiing/snowboarding with tracheostomy tube?

[@LifewithaVent]

It is possible to do these activities. Just please keep the tracheostomy tube covered with a Heat and Moisture Exchanger (HME) and possibly also a breathable scarf.
