HALYARD* Turbo-Cleaning Closed Suction System

HALYARD* Turbo-Cleaning - How it Works

HALYARD* Turbo-Cleaning Closed Suction System, which features technology from BALLARD* trach care, is the only catheter that retracts within a unique, isolated and vacuum-sealed turbulent cleaning chamber. The turbulent cleansing action results in an 89% cleaner catheter tip compared to a standard closed suction system. 1 This reduced colonization may help reduce risk of VAE and VAP in your ventilated patients.

Manipulation of the ventilator circuit can increase cross-contamination - a leading cause of VAP. 1

To help protect patients, a closed ventilator circuit is recognized as a best practice in the prevention of VAP 2 to maintain ventilation and oxygen therapy throughout suctioning, preventing approximately 50% of the lung volume fall observed when suctioning after disconnection from the ventilator .3- Closed suctioning is a best practice that protects patients and caregivers. 2,4

  • Reduces the risk for contamination from outside pathogens 4
  • Reduces colonization within the circuit 4
  • Designed to protect caregivers from exposure to body fluids
  • Sealed by our patented "PEEP seal" technology, the suction and saline produce turbulent cleansing action, for a cleaner catheter tip
  • One-way lavage port, designed to prevent "sprayback"
  • Turbulent cleaning chamber creates cleansing action, resulting in a cleaner catheter
  • Hinged valve isolates catheter tip and helps prevent inadvertent lavage
  • Integrated MDI port (optional)
