The Cuffix is intended to measure and regulate, through passive control, the intracuff pressure of Endotracheal tubes, Tracheotomy tubes and Laryngeal Masks Airways (LMAs) (supraglottic airways). The device is intended for single patient use, under medical supervision in hospital (EMS), extended care facilities or outpatient clinics, where a patient may be intubated.

The Cuffix is a battery-operated cuff pressure controlling device which is intended to be used with ventilation tubes (ETT, Tracheostomy, LMA) It is a single patient-use, non-sterile device designed to be used continuously for up to 14 days. The device is connected to the pilot balloon of airways with inflatable air-filled cuffs via the device's extension line. The operating range of the Cuffix is 0-99 cmH2O. The device body houses the passive pressure mechanism component as well as the active pressure monitoring mechanism which displays the cuff pressure on the digital screen. An indicator light provides an additional visual aid to indicate whether the cuff pressure is at the correct pressure (green) or is the pressure is out of the set range (red). The elastic band hanger allows to attach the Cuffix as needed (e.g., to the ventilation circuit, the patient bed rail, etc.).
