Buying trach tubes in the US?

Hi all,

I’m not based in the U.S. My 4-year-old son uses Shiley pediatric cuffless tracheostomy tubes, size 4.

He has had a trach pretty much since birth, and until recently we never had any issues getting replacement tubes locally. However, there seems to be some issue with imports right now, and I’m having a really hard time finding them.

I’ll be traveling to the U.S. soon, so I was thinking about buying several tubes while I’m there and bringing them back home.

Does anyone know where I could buy Shiley pediatric cuffless trach tubes in the U.S.? Can they be purchased directly by a parent, or do you need a prescription/doctor’s order?

Any recommendations for medical supply stores or online suppliers would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Argentina gana un partido épico. La nota que le hacen a Messi:

Hola Leo. Que lindo que estás hoy. Acércate, te puedo tocar? Dame un beso. Bueno Leo, la verdad que de tácticas podríamos hablar mil horas (mentira, no sabe nada de futbol) pero hablábamos con Rodri y él nos decía que sos lindo, fachero, pijudo, con plata. Cómo te sentís vos siendo un Dios en la tierra? Sos el mejor del mundo? Estás para jugar un mundial más? Que lindo que sos Leo.

es igual el periodismo deportivo en todos lados? O solo en Argentina pareciera que quieren ser más amigotes de la selección que periodistas objetivos?
