Medicomp Heat and Moisture Exchanger with Filter, Angled

The Medicomp Heat and Moisture Exchanger with Filter (MC-700) is designed to support patients who require humidification and filtration of inhaled air during mechanical ventilation or tracheostomy care. This angled HME filter helps preserve the airway's natural moisture and warmth by capturing exhaled heat and humidity and returning it to the patient on the next breath, reducing the drying and irritation that can occur with dry medical gases.

Engineered for reliable respiratory performance, the MC-700 delivers a humidification output of 30.4 mg H₂O/L at a tidal volume (VT) of 500 mL, helping maintain a more physiologic airway environment. Its low-resistance design measures just 0.69 cm H₂O at 30 LPM, allowing air to pass through with minimal added breathing effort — an important consideration for both ventilated and spontaneously breathing patients.

The integrated filter medium also helps reduce the passage of airborne particles and microorganisms, supporting infection control protocols in home care, long-term care, and hospital settings. The angled connector design offers added flexibility in circuit setup, making it easier to position tubing and reduce strain on the tracheostomy or ventilator connection point.

Whether used for daily tracheostomy management or as part of a ventilator circuit, this heat and moisture exchanger with filter is a practical, single-use respiratory accessory trusted by clinicians and caregivers who need dependable humidification and filtration performance.
