Heat and Moisture Exchange Filter (HME Filter)
Heat and Moisture Exchange Filter (HMEF) is a passive breathing system filter designed to conserve heat and moisture while preventing bacteria and viruses from entering the patient’s airway.
- Specification
Product Code: MED052
Size/Strength: Sizes Available: Adult, Pediatric
Product Description
HME Filter is used in ventilated and anesthetized patients to maintain optimal airway humidity and temperature while providing effective filtration of bacteria, viruses, and moisture droplets. The device combines heat and moisture exchange with high-efficiency electrostatic filtration, ensuring safe and stable breathing performance.
Manufactured from high-strength medical-grade plastic, the HME filter protects the patient, breathing circuit, and equipment from contamination. Its low resistance design ensures consistent airflow, even during prolonged ventilation. A convenient luer port on the housing allows gas sampling and monitoring, making it suitable for ICU, OT, and anesthesia applications.
