reuse trach tubes

Hi David,

We do not reprocess trach tubes in our facility except under very occasional circumstances.
Our local pediatric nursing home does reprocess bivona tubes for the individual patient up to 5 times as per bivona protocol

There is a "home sterilization process" on the Bivona website that many parents follow during times of shortage of tubes and some on a regular basis..

Best, Lauren
