Heat Moisture Exchangers (HMEs) help create moisture in order to prevent dryness of the tracheal area due to an endotracheal tube. An HME has multiple uses, including in mechanically ventilated patients or as part of a laryngectomy. Shiley's Tracheolife II Heat and Moisture Exchanger is able to provide a high amount of humidity within the trach tube, helping to keep the area from drying out. A collection chamber gathers mucus deposits without interfering with the functionality of the HME.
In addition to preventing obstruction, the port is small enough to be taken anywhere at any time and can be used for up to 24 hours before needing to be switched out. Replacements are done with relative ease and there's no assembly required. This HME comes complete with an oxygen port that maximizes heat and humidity as it's being worn, assuring you will not get any dryness in the trach tube or the throat area. As a bonus the HME has an oxygen connection port if needed. This Tracheolife HME has a standard fitting of 15 mm and is DEHP- and Latex-free.
