Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 16628 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 121, Anaesthetic and respiratory equipment,
Subcommittee SC 2, Tracheal tubes and other equipment.
This first edition cancels and replaces the Technical Specification ISO/TS 16628:2003.

ISO 16628:2008(E)
Introduction
Originally a Technical Specification, this document is being revised as an International Standard to provide
requirements for size designation and labelling of tracheobronchial tubes. Such requirements will have the
benefit of enabling clinicians to select the most appropriate device for their patient population and to select
accessories such as fiberoptic bronchoscopes based on the measured internal diameter of the bronchial
segment of the tracheobronchial tube.
This International Standard provides requirements for manufacturers in establishing a standard method of size
designation for tracheobronchial tubes and their parts. A tracheobronchial tube is a double lumen tracheal
tube that facilitates selective ventilation to one or both lungs and allows isolation of one lung from the other. It
is designed for either right or left mainstem bronchus placement, and has both a tracheal and bronchial cuff.
