Note to patients:
All the devices shown here are prescription products and must be obtained from a licensed homecare provider or physician. Patients cannot purchase directly from Covidien.

Note to clinicians:
Federal (U.S.) law restricts tracheostomy tube devices to sale by or on the order of a physician. By submitting a custom tracheostomy tube ordering template, you represent that the device is being requested on the order of a physician. Because these products are designed for a specific patient, custom tracheostomy tube orders cannot be cancelled or refunded once submitted.
