A tracheostomy tube (100) comprising a first tube (120) having a cylindrical cross section bonded to a second tube (130) having a D-shaped cross section. The tracheostomy tube of the present invention presents a lower profile and is therefore more comfortable for the patient. Further, the tracheostomy tube of the present invention allows for greater flow rates or suction rates when compared to prior art tracheostomy tubes comprised of two cylindrical tubes.
