Abstract
The present invention relates to a tracheal ventilation apparatus, in particular a tracheostomy cannula or an endotracheal tube, having a cannula tube, which from a point of view from a gas supply, has a proximal tube portion with a proximal opening and a distal tube portion with a distal opening. In order to provide an easy-to-handle tracheal ventilation apparatus that can easily be inserted and that impedes a swallowing process as little as possible, the proximal tube portion and the distal tube portion are connected to one another by way of an axially air-permeable joint that facilitates at least restricted mobility and, in particular, pivotability of a longitudinal axis of the distal tube portion with respect to a longitudinal axis of the proximal tube portion.
