Heat and Moisture Exchanger with Filter Medtronic 31 mg H₂O/L @ VT 250 mL 3.0 cm H₂O @ 30 LPM Straight

Yes, this Medtronic HME is specifically engineered for infant and pediatric use. Its design focuses on minimizing dead space (29 mL) and reducing weight to ensure it is appropriate and safe for smaller patients.

The device features an advanced electrostatic hydrophobic membrane that provides 99.99% BFE and VFE efficiency, offering a high level of protection against both bacteria and viruses to guard against cross-contamination.

Absolutely. It is constructed with low-resistance airflow properties (3.0 cm H₂O @ 30 LPM). This minimizes the work of breathing, which is essential for improving clinical outcomes and overall patient comfort during ventilation.

This HME maintains a consistent moisture output of 31 mg H₂O/L. This level is optimized to: <ul><li>Reduce the risk of colonization in breathing circuits</li><li>Prevent sampling line blockages</li><li>Maintain necessary airway moisture levels</li></ul>

The unit is designed to be lightweight to avoid strain on the patient’s airway, weighing only 21 grams.

Yes, the unit is equipped with a dedicated gas sampling port located on the side of the chamber, which comes sealed with a secure, tethered cap for convenience.

The device features a standard 22 M / 15 F connection type, making it compatible with standard ventilator breathing circuits.

This specific HME is optimized for clinical use within a volume capacity range of 75 to 300 mL.
