AirLife™ HMEs and HMEFs
These Heat and Moisture Exchangers (HMEs) and Filtered Heat and Moisture Exchangers (HMEFs) capture the patient’s exhaled heat and moisture and return them in the inspired gas. Small and compact, they are lightweight, provide low resistance to flow and are specially treated to provide bacteriostatic and hygroscopic (HCH) benefits. Select either the large volume or small volume models depending on tidal volume requirements.
