Full title and description

St ISO 5361-4-1984 rus — Tracheal tubes — Part 4: Cole type. This entry refers to the International Standard ISO 5361-4 published in 1984 (Cole type tracheal tubes, intended principally for infants) and a Russian-language distribution/labeling of that standard (designated "rus").

Abstract

ISO 5361-4:1984 specifies the basic dimensions and illustrations for Cole-type tracheal tubes used in anaesthesia and respiratory equipment for infants. The document provides dimensional requirements and identification conventions for this particular tube design. The 1984 edition was later revised and reissued.

General information

• Status: Withdrawn / superseded (withdrawn and subsequently revised).
• Publication date: 1984 (published August 1984; listings also show 31 July 1984 / 1 August 1984 depending on source).
• Publisher: International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
• ICS / categories: 11.040.10 (Anaesthetic, respiratory and reanimation equipment).
• Edition / version: Edition 1 (1984). Revised edition published 1987 (ISO 5361-4:1987).
• Number of pages: 3 pages (short technical specification).

Scope

This part of ISO 5361 applies to Cole-type tracheal tubes (a specific non-cuffed tube geometry frequently used in infants). It defines the essential external and internal dimensions, range of nominal sizes, and basic identification details so that such tubes are interoperable with anaesthetic and breathing equipment. The scope is limited to the geometric/dimensional specification rather than comprehensive performance or biocompatibility testing.

Key topics and requirements

• Definition and designation of Cole-type tracheal tubes (nomenclature and marking).
• Basic dimensional requirements (nominal sizes, external and internal diameters, lengths, tapering shapes) illustrated in tabular/figure form.
• Compatibility/fit considerations with anaesthetic breathing circuits and connectors (dimensional interface focus rather than materials or sterilization methods).
• Short technical format — the 1984 edition is a concise (3-page) dimensional specification; later editions expanded or reconsolidated the series.

Typical use and users

Manufacturers of paediatric and neonatal airway devices, hospital procurement and clinical engineering departments, anaesthetists and intensive‑care clinicians concerned with device interchangeability, and conformity assessment/test laboratories referencing dimensional standards for component compatibility. Regulatory and standards librarians may reference the Russian-language distribution ("rus") for local cataloging.

Related standards

Other parts of the ISO 5361 series (e.g., parts 1, 2, 5) and subsequent revisions (ISO 5361-4:1987) are directly related. The ISO 5361 series and later consolidated editions (including later ISO 5361 consolidated revisions and related connector/interface standards) should be consulted for current requirements; national adoptions (DIN ISO, STN ISO, etc.) exist for various editions.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: ISO 5361-4:1984 is the International Standard that defined geometric and dimensional requirements for Cole-type tracheal tubes (primarily for infants). It is the 1984 first edition and is recorded under the label St ISO 5361-4-1984 rus when a Russian-distributed/version label is used.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers basic dimensions, nominal sizes and illustrations for Cole-type tracheal tubes — focusing on dimensional interchangeability and identification rather than exhaustive performance, materials, or biocompatibility testing.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Device manufacturers, anaesthesia and neonatal clinical teams, hospital procurement and clinical engineering, test laboratories, and standards/quality managers who need dimensional interoperability for airway devices.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: ISO 5361-4:1984 has been withdrawn and was revised by ISO 5361-4:1987. The ISO 5361 series has seen further consolidation and later replacements in subsequent years; users should reference the latest consolidated ISO 5361 edition or their national adoption for current requirements.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: Yes — it is part of the ISO 5361 series (tracheal tubes) with multiple parts covering different tube types and aspects; other parts and later revisions provide complementary dimensional and performance information.

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: Cole type, tracheal tube, paediatric airway, neonatal tube, ISO 5361, dimensions, interchangeability, rus (Russian version).
