The Salter Labs Trach-Vac endotracheal tubes are indicated for nasal or oral intubation of the trachea for anesthesia and airway management, including mechanical ventilation and suctioning of accumulated subglottic secretions in the trachea of adult patients.

The Salter Labs Trach-Vac Endotracheal Tube (SFTVPU) Subglottic Suction Tube with Salter Flex-Tip™ and Salter ThinCuff TM (polyurethane) and The Salter Labs Trach-Vac Endotracheal Tube (SFTVVC) Subglottic Suction Tube with Salter Flex-Tip™ and Salter ThinCuff TM (polyvinylchloride) are cuffed, sterile, single-use devices supplied with a standard 15mm conical connector. They are made primarily of polyvinylchloride with either a polyurethane (PU) or PVC cuff. In addition to the main lumen, the tube has a separate cuff inflation line and Evac lumen which has a dorsal opening above the cuff. A capped luer-style connection tube allows access to the separate lumen, enabling the health care professional to apply the suction to remove patient secretions. The tube incorporates a Magill curve, a hooded tip with two Murphy Eyes and a radiopaque line over the full length of the tube to assist in radiographic visualization.

The bubble humidifier is intended to add moisture to breathing gases for administration to patients >1 month in homecare, hospital, extended care and hospice.

The Salter Labs Bubble Humidifier (6-15 LPM) with 6 PSI (410 mbars) safety valve is an empty, disposable, non-sterile, not made with natural rubber latex, device intended to humidify breathing gas prior to delivery to a patient. The Salter Labs Bubble Humidifier (6-15 LPM) with 6 PSI (410mbars) safety valve is provided with a 6 pounds per square inch (PSI) safety valve and can operate within flow rates of 6 to 15 liters per minute (LPM). The device is used with various breathing gas sources (i.e., oxygen concentrators, gas cylinders and wall outlets) and provides connection for delivery of humidified breathing gas via face masks or cannulas, and use of optional oxygen tubing and water traps (face masks, 21 CFR 868.5580: nasal cannulas, 21 CFR 868.5340; oxygen tubing, 21 CFR 868.5860 and water traps, 21 CFR 868.5995 are 510(k) exempt). This device is a passive device and is not a cascade humidifier, is not heated and is not prefilled. The device is made of a humidifier bottle which is used to hold water during use, a lid which seals the humidifier bottle, an audible pressure relief mechanism to notify the user of a downstream occlusion and a diffuser located at the end of a PVC diffuser tube inside the humidifier bottle. The diffusor is designed to uniformly disperse the gas throughout the water. Both the bottle and lid are constructed to be easy to grip and reduce the chance of cross threading. The bottle is permanently marked with "minimum/maximum" water levels. The lid is marked with minimum source pressure, flow ranges and pressure value of the safety valve.

The BiNAPS Nasal Airflow Pressure and Snore Transducer (using the pressure transducer) is an accessory intended for use with polysomnography equipment during sleep disorder studies for the purpose of detecting and amplifying breathing signals and detection of snoring of a sleeping patient through a Salter Labs nasal cannula. This device is intended for adult and pediatric (excluding neonatal and infant) use. The ThermiSense Oral/Nasal Thermal AirFlow Sensor with Airflow Pressure Cannulas, Nasal and Oral/Nasal is a thermal resistive thermistor designed to monitor oral/ nasal thermal airflow temperature and pressure changes during sleep studies. The ThermiSense is intended for use with a nasal cannula and polysomnography headbox or pressure transducers, such as, BiNAPS Nasal Airflow Transducer. This device is intended for adult and pediatric (excluding neonatal and infant) use.

The Salter Labs BiNAPS Nasal Airflow Pressure and Snore Transducer is a two output channel device used to acquire respiratory low pressure waves and low air flow that are sensed through a Nasal Cannula typically worn by a subject during a sleep diagnostic session. It is used to convert changes in air pressure and flow, occurring during sleep, into electrical signals that can be measured by polysomnography equipment. The Nasal Cannula directs the airflow and pressure waves generated by breathing and snoring from the nares and mouth of a patient through a luer lock fitting and then into a cup shaped plastic cylinder chamber sealed closed at the open end by a fitting and then into a cup shaped plastic cylinder chamber sealed closed at the open end by a piezo-electric ceramic element. The piezo element, when flexed by the impinging air pressure changes, generates a proportional electric voltage. This voltage is attenuated and filtered by subsequent passive electronic circuitry composing the sensor. The Salter Labs Airflow Pressure Transducer does not require a power source. ThermiSense Oral/Nasal Thermal AirFlow Sensor with Airflow Pressure Cannulas, Nasal and Oral/Nasal is composed of a Thermistor as the element which changes resistance as airflow from the patient is delivered across the element of the thermistor. The thermistor elements are located directly underneath the nares and in the airflow of the mouth. In both cases the element is kept from touching the skin of the patient in order to be the most effective change in temperature. The Thermistor is mounted in the Cannula to position the thermistor properly under the nares and in the airflow path of the mouth. The Thermistor is covered with a heat shrink tubing to protect it from moisture from the patient. The Thermistor requires a battery source in order to derive a current flow through the circuit. This battery source is located in a small container called a signal-conditioning unit. This unit has circuitry that will remove noise, display a smooth signal and is an added feature test for wire continuity.

CPAP Cannulaide is indicated to aid in securing and positioning the nasal interface for neonates and infants undergoing non-invasive ventilation in an acute care setting. CPAP Cannulaide is a disposable device and is for single patient use only.

The CPAP Cannulaide® is a die-cut hydrocolloid-coated polyurethane film with an integral hook strip (i.e., Velcro) to allow for the use of a loop material to help secure a nasal interface for non-invasive ventilation. The Cannulaide® is applied above the lip and over the nose to provide a protective barrier between the nasal cannula and the patient's skin. It is available in multiple sizes that vary the external geometry and nare hole size and spacing to allow for use on neonates and infants. It is a non-sterile, single-patient use, disposable device.

To swaddle infants during neonatal phototherapy in the hospital or home setting. Single patient use only.

The Luma Wrap™ by Beevers Manufacturing & Supply, Inc./Salter Labs is a translucent, highly breathable, phototherapy-compatible, disposable infant swaddling blanket. It is made of spun bond polypropylene non-woven fabric that is more than 90% light-permeable.

The Salter Labs Oral/Nasal Thermal Airflow Sensor is used as a cannula accessory with existing recording devices and data acquisition systems in a sleep laboratory setting to support the diagnostic recording of nasal and/or oral airflow. The subject device itself performs no diagnostic functions, and only supports the diagnostic recording of airflow for use as an accessory component to a polysomnography recorder. The target population is adult and pediatric patients during a sleep study in a sleep laboratory.

The modified device has a minor construction change from that of the predicate device where a series of connected thermocouples replace a series / parallel connection of thermistors. Both elements are placed at the bridge of the nose to measure the same temperature changes during breathing from each nare and from the mouth. The lower cost thermocouples provide a lowcost single-use replacement for the more expensive thermistor device already cleared.
