Quicktrach I + II
Sets for percutaneous cricothyrotomy according to the catheter-over-needle technique
Percutaneous cricothyrotomy sets
Preassembled, immediately ready for use
With Quicktrach I and Quicktrach II (with cuff) we offer two sets for percutaneous cricothyrotomy according to the catheter-over-needle technique, for securing the airway in a CICO situation (Cannot Intubate – Cannot Oxygenate), in case of upper airway obstruction. The sterile sets are preassembled and available in blister packaging or plastic tube.
——Features
Quicktrach I
We offer the Quicktrach I for children (cannula 2 mm I.D.) and for adults (cannula 4 mm I.D.). For single use, sterile.
Stopper
Reduces the risk of posterior tracheal wall perforation while inserting the needle into the trachea.
Needle
Due to the conical needle tip, the opening into the trachea is dilated.
Syringe
For checking the location in the trachea.
Cannula
Inner diameter is adequate for temporary ventilation with standard breathing systems (1).
Necktape
For safe fixation.

Quicktrach II (with Cuff)
The inflatable cuff and the safety clip give the Quicktrach II additional features. We offer the Quicktrach II for adults (cannula 4 mm I.D.). For single use, sterile.
Stopper
Reduces the risk of posterior tracheal wall perforation while inserting the needle into the trachea.
Safety Clip
By pushing the cannula forward, the safety clip engages and the needle tip disappears into the cannula to prevent trauma.
Needle

Syringe

Cannula with Cuff
Enables efficient ventilation with aspiration protection. Inner diameter is adequate for temporary ventilation with standard breathing systems (1).
Necktape
For safe fixation.

Packaging Variants
In addition to the blister pack, the Quicktrach is also available in a plastic tube (ideal for emergency bags).
Memory Effect at Quicktrach II
After complete removal of the needle the anatomically shaped cannula adjusts to the trachea due to the "memory effect".
Safety Clip on Quicktrach II
If the cannula is pushed forward with the thumb, until the safety clip audibly clicks into place, the needle tip disappears into the cannula and thus cannot cause any trauma.
