To manage leakage around the voice prosthesis
Essentially, it is a Provox Vega with an additional, enlarged esophageal flange. The flange is thin, concave and very flexible, so it conforms to the tissue around the puncture. With Provox Vega XtraSeal patients can speak, eat and drink while the leakage is managed.
Insertion system:
No two tracheoesophageal punctures are the same. In addition, clinicians have different preferences when it comes to the insertion method for the voice prosthesis. The Provox Vega Insertion System has been developed with all this in mind; it can be used in different ways depending on preferred method.
- System Insertion: For straightforward, easily accessible punctures. - Tube Insertion: For more difficult-to-reach or angled punctures. - Capsule Insertion: For a narrow stoma or esophagus- and difficult-to-reach punctures.
The system is quick and easy to adapt to the chosen insertion method, with minimal set-up or preparation time – and it is precision-engineered to perfectly fold the esophageal flange of the voice prosthesis.
