Product Description
The Ammodura HME 1500 T-Shape Tracheostomy Heat and Moisture Exchanger is a critical respiratory accessory designed for patients requiring tracheal humidification. By capturing heat and moisture from exhaled air and returning it during inhalation, this device prevents the respiratory tract from drying out, making breathing feel more natural and comfortable. This medical-grade filter is essential for spontaneously breathing patients in both clinical and home care settings. Featuring a versatile T-shape design, it includes an integrated rotary oxygen port that allows for easy attachment to O2 lines without disturbing the patient's position. Its low-resistance construction ensures that the work of breathing remains minimal while providing maximum moisture retention. Crafted from transparent, medical-grade materials, these disposable filters allow for easy visual inspection, ensuring the highest standards of hygiene and safety for tracheostomy care.
FAQ
Q1. What is HME for tracheostomy?
Ans: An HME, or Heat and Moisture Exchanger, is a device used by tracheostomy patients to replace the natural humidification functions of the nose and mouth. It captures warmth and moisture from exhaled breath and returns it to the lungs during inhalation to prevent airway irritation.
Q2. What is the function of the heat moisture exchanger?
Ans: The primary function is to provide passive humidification and filtration. It helps maintain the integrity of the respiratory mucosa by ensuring the air entering the trachea is warm and moist, reducing the risk of mucus plugging.
Q3. How often should a tracheostomy HME filter be changed?
Ans: These filters are designed for single use and should typically be replaced every 24 hours. However, they must be changed immediately if they become soiled with secretions or if breathing resistance increases.
Q4. Are these Ammodura HME filters authentic USA imports available in India?
Ans: Yes, Rudra Retails sources these Ammodura HME filters directly from the USA. We ensure that Indian customers receive 100% authentic, medical-grade imported respiratory accessories for reliable tracheostomy care.
Q5. Can I use the rotary port for oxygen therapy?
Ans: Absolutely. The T-shape design includes a rotary oxygen port specifically for supplemental O2. Its swivel functionality allows for easier movement and connection to oxygen concentrators or tanks.
