A HEAT AND MOISTURE EXCHANGER (HME) FILTER captures heat and water vapor from a patient's exhaled air. It then adds that heat and moisture to the patient's inspired air, providing humidification.

HME filter is basically used to prevent cross-infection of the respiratory system and reduce the chance of patients ontracting nosocomial pneumnia when patient is being surgery in ICU, surgery room or respiratory operation; therefore to protect patients, medical staff, and the medical environment.

HJMED HME Breathing Filters (HMEF/Artificial Nose) for mechanical ventilation and tracheostomy patients. Made of medical-grade PP housing with high-efficiency filter media, EO sterilized for single use. Combines heat/moisture exchange and ≥99.99% bacterial/viral filtration to reduce cross-infection risk and maintain airway comfort. Standard 15/22mm connectors fit most ventilators, anesthesia machines and tracheostomy circuits. Ideal for ICU, OR, emergency and home care. 

MAIN FEATURES:

1) Heat/moisture exchange + ≥99.99% bacterial/viral filtration to reduce VAP risk.

2) Standard 15/22mm connectors compatible with major ventilators, anesthesia machines and tracheostomy circuits.

3) Low airflow resistance design to reduce patient's breathing work.

4) EO sterilized, individually packaged for single use, eliminating cross-infection risk.

5) Multiple sizes for adults/children/tracheostomy, suitable for clinical and home care settings.
