SENSOTRACH® ALU is a compress, made of non-woven fabric, for tracheostomy tube users. The relatively light non-woven underlay is aluminium-vapour coated on one side. SENSOTRACH® ALU absorbs tracheal secretions well and acts as a cushion between the skin and neck flange. The silver-grey matt side of the tracheal compress consists of a non-woven viscose fabric, with finely aluminium-vapour coated fibres. This smooth surface prevents adhesion secretion residues and does not stick to the skin.
