Abstract

The forward, tapered end (24) of a dilator (2) projects from the patient end (10) of a tracheostomy tube (1) and its rear end projects from the rear end (11) of the tube, forming a handle (20). The forward end of the dilator has a collar (26), which extends rearwardly and overlaps the forward end (10) of the tube (1) to form a smooth continuation with the tube. The forward end portion (12) of the tube is tapered. The assembly of dilator (2) and tube (1) is inserted to the trachea (3) along a guidewire (64). The collar (26) of the dilator (2) everts forwardly when the dilator is pulled rearwardly so that it can be slid out of the tube (1), which is left in place in the trachea.
