hood-labsThe Hood Bronchial Stent is designed to relieve airway complications such as anastomosis and stenosis following lung transplant. The stent may also be used to minimize chronic bronchial strictures due to tuberculosis and malignancies. Inserted endoscopically, both ends of the tube are flanged to prevent movement after surgical placement in the bronchus. Fabricated of flexible, biocompatible, medical-grade silicone, the bronchial stent allows normal humidification and phonation. An additional design, Bronchial Stent with Posts (anchoring studs) is available for physicians who prefer the anchoring studs over the rings on the original design. • Aids in short-term management of airway obstructions after lung transplants, tuberculosis, malignancies • Enables normal breathing and speech • Permits healing and prevents desiccation • Biocompatible medical-grade silicone • Custom lengths and diameters are available Download order form here...
