ADVANTAGE™ Indwelling Voice Prosthesis

The ADVANTAGE indwelling voice prosthesis is the newest advancement in Blom-Singer voice restoration. Silver oxide has been incorporated into the prosthesis as a material preservative. The ADVANTAGE is placed by the clinician in the tracheoesophageal puncture so that routine changing of a voice prosthesis is unnecessary. It is ideal for laryngectomees who are unable or resistant to changing a removable voice prosthesis, such as the Duckbill or Low Pressure styles. The ADVANTAGE is inserted and replaced on an as needed basis by a speech pathologist or physician only.
  • Now Available in two diameters: 16 Fr. Sterile and 20 Fr. Sterile
  • One-way silicone valve with silver-oxide.*
  • Easy-fold esophageal retention flange and flange introducer.
  • Blom-Singer Gel Cap Insertion System for atraumatic insertion of the voice prosthesis.
  • Brush and Flush Cleaning System with built-in safety features.

ACCESSORIES – CLEAN AND READY-TO-USE

The Brush and Flush Cleaning System is an integral part of daily maintenance. The cleaning brush has important safety features to prevent it from being inserted too far into the prosthesis and a “T-Bar” handle to prevent it from accidentally entering the trachea. The Plug Insert is designed to temporarily stop leaking should it occur.
