Medline Tracheostomy Heat and Moisture Exchanger – With Suction & Oxygen Ports

Efficient humidification with minimal resistance for tracheostomy patients – lightweight, low-dead-space HME for adult and pediatric care.

The Medline Heat and Moisture Exchanger-Trach (HME-Trach) is designed specifically to meet the humidification needs of tracheostomy patients. Engineered for comfort and efficiency, its bow-tie shape ensures a secure fit and enhanced patient tolerance during extended use.

Weighing only 7.1 grams and featuring a compact 13.4 mL dead space, this HME offers excellent moisture output of 26.0 mg H₂O/L at a tidal volume of 500 mL, all while maintaining low resistance (0.42 cm H₂O @ 30 LPM) to support smoother breathing.
