A tracheostomy tube decannulation cap is a small, single-use plastic cover designed to help patients gradually wean off their tracheostomy tube and restore natural voice function. By sealing the tracheostomy opening while allowing airflow through the tube’s fenestrations, it encourages the patient’s airway to adapt and close over time.
These devices are typically classified as single-use and may require specific clinical protocols for use, depending on regional regulations. They are supplied sterile and intended for temporary attachment to compatible tracheostomy tubes during the decannulation process.
