Zusammenfassung:	A tracheal tube assembly includes a connector body, a cannula extending from the connector body, and an insert that provides rigidity to the connector body and retains the cannula in the connector body. The insert has a proximal surface having a first outside diameter substantially the same size as a second outside diameter of the connector body. The cannula has a tapered upper end that fits between conforming tapered sections of the connector body inner surface and the insert. The insert may include features to prevent rotation of the cannula as well as rotation of the insert in the connector body. Features of the insert and connector body may also interface to mechanically retain the insert in the connector body. A fastening component may be provided to aid in the fastening of the insert and cannula to the connector body. Different sizes of cannula may be accommodated by different inserts, while using the same or different connector bodies.
