Why Use a Short Lead Cannula?

Short lead cannulas are designed to connect to longer oxygen tubing, helping reduce excess tubing around the user’s face and upper body. This improves comfort, reduces pulling, and makes daily movement easier.

The Salter 1600 design includes a three-channel anti-kink tubing system that helps maintain consistent oxygen flow even if the tubing bends or becomes partially compressed. :
