Executive Product Overview
The McKesson Adult Straight Nasal Cannula with 7' Clear Supply Tubing (Manufacturer MPN #16-3302E) is a medical-grade, low-flow oxygen delivery interface engineered for hospitals, long-term care facilities, emergency departments, and home medical equipment (HME) fleets. Designed specifically for adult facial anatomy, this cannula incorporates straight nasal prongs to deliver direct, uninhibited oxygen flow for standard low-flow clinical protocols.
Each unit features a non-sterile, single-patient use design pre-attached to 7 feet (2.1 meters) of clear supply tubing with a universal end connector. Built with a 3-channel inner lumen architecture, the crush-resistant tubing ensures an uninterrupted flow of medical oxygen even if the line is accidentally creased, folded, or compressed under heavy furniture. Manufactured completely without natural rubber latex and certified Trade Agreement Act (TAA) compliant, each cannula in this wholesale bulk case of 50 is individually packaged to support sanitary inventory management across clinical departments.

- Clear Medical-Grade Supply Tubing: Discrete, transparent tubing provides a clean, unobtrusive clinical look preferred in residential and acute care settings.
- Crush-Resistant 3-Channel Inner Lumen: Multi-channel internal safety geometry maintains continuous gas flow even if the 7-foot line is tightly kinked or compressed.
- Trade Agreement Act (TAA) Compliant: Fully compliant with federal procurement standards for government, VA, and institutional purchasing protocols.
- 100% Latex-Free & Non-Sterile: Manufactured entirely without natural rubber latex to eliminate Type I allergen risks across sensitive patient populations.
