Speaking valve for Trach Tube

A speaking valve for a tracheostomy tube is a specialized device that allows individuals with a tracheostomy (or tracheostomy tube) to produce speech. Normally, when a person has a tracheostomy tube, the airway is bypassed, preventing air from passing through the vocal cords and making it difficult or impossible to speak. A speaking valve is a simple yet important device that redirects the air in a way that allows patients to speak, breathe more normally, and communicate effectively.
