Heat & Moisture Exchanger (HME) W/ Gas Port Straight
Medline
Product Overview:
The DYNJAAHME9 Heat & Moisture Exchanger (HME) with Gas Port Straight is a medical device designed to enhance patient care during mechanical ventilation. It functions by conserving heat and moisture from the patient’s exhaled breath, ensuring that the air delivered to the lungs is warm and humidified. This model is equipped with a gas port for convenient gas sampling, making it ideal for use in critical care settings.
Key Features:
- Efficient Heat and Moisture Exchange:
- The HME efficiently captures heat and moisture from exhaled air and returns it to the patient during inhalation, maintaining optimal humidity and temperature levels in the respiratory system.
- The integrated gas port allows for easy gas sampling, facilitating continuous monitoring of respiratory gases without interrupting ventilation.
- The straight design of the HME ensures minimal resistance and easy integration with existing ventilatory circuits, enhancing patient comfort and ease of use for healthcare providers.
- Engineered to deliver high performance, the DYNJAAHME9 ensures effective humidification while minimizing the risk of airway dryness and associated complications.
- This HME is designed for single-use, ensuring sterility and reducing the risk of cross-contamination between patients.
- Compatible with a wide range of ventilators and breathing systems, providing versatility in various clinical environments.
Intended Use: The DYNJAAHME9 HME with Gas Port Straight is intended for use in patients requiring mechanical ventilation, particularly in critical care and anesthesia settings. It is suitable for both short-term and long-term ventilation.
Benefits:
- Enhanced Patient Comfort: Maintains optimal humidity and temperature, preventing the discomfort and potential complications associated with dry and cold air.
- Improved Respiratory Care: Facilitates effective gas exchange and respiratory function, promoting better patient outcomes.
- Convenient Gas Sampling: The integrated gas port allows for continuous respiratory gas monitoring, essential for critically ill patients.
- Reduced Infection Risk: Single-use design minimizes the risk of cross-contamination and infection.
Contraindications and Precautions:
- Contraindications: Not suitable for patients with heavy secretions or those requiring high levels of humidification beyond the HME’s capacity.
- Precautions: Regularly inspect and replace the HME to ensure continued effectiveness. Avoid reuse to prevent cross-contamination.
Storage and Handling:
- Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
- Handle with care to maintain the integrity of the device and its sterility.
