Teleflex Humid-Vent Heat and Moisture Exchanger, 1 Port, Straight

The Teleflex Humid-Vent Heat and Moisture Exchanger is a trusted single-use, in-line HME designed to support respiratory therapy by conditioning inspired air for patients on mechanical ventilation. With over 25 years of proven clinical experience, the Humid-Vent 1 is recognized as the original in-line HME, offering clinicians a reliable option for maintaining airway humidity and warmth when a patient's natural upper airway humidification function is bypassed.

This straight, 1 port configuration features hygroscopic, bacteriostatic microwell paper media engineered to deliver optimal moisture output while maintaining low resistance to airflow. Performance data shows 35.37 mg H₂O/L at a tidal volume of 200 mL, along with a pressure drop of just 1.09 cm H₂O at 30 LPM, supporting effective humidification without adding unnecessary breathing effort for the patient.

Ideal for respiratory departments, ICUs, and anesthesia settings, this heat and moisture exchanger integrates easily into standard breathing circuits. Its single-use design supports infection control protocols while providing consistent, dependable performance breath after breath.

Choose the Humid-Vent 1 Port Straight HME for a well-established, clinically proven solution to airway humidification needs in ventilated patients.
