Features:
Humid-Vent® filters combine the functions of heat and moisture exchanger filter, bacterial/viral breathing filter and hydrophobic filter.
Medium – hydrophobic depth filter made of polypropylene, electrostatically charged, hygroscopic microporous, paper with bacteriostatic properties
Tidal volume – 150–1000 ml
Dead Space – 26-35 ml
Connectors – 15M / 22F-22M / 15F
How to use:
- Place the filter in a vertical position
- Tube (breathing circuit) should be at the level lower than the filter
- Connect the gas supply tube
- Connect and disconnect the filter by turning it
Cautions:
- Condensate may accumulate on the patient side of the product. To prevent accumulation of condensate, position filter to allow water to drain away from upstream side of the filter.
- Take total system dead space into consideration if used as an HME.
Warnings:
- Do not soak, rinse, wash or sterilize (gas, steam or cold) this product.
- Discard after use.
- Reuse of medical devices intended for single use can cause a loss of functional capacity and reduced efficiency. Reusing disposable products also leads to viral, bacterial, fungal and other opportunistic complications. Existing methods of cleaning and sterilization, as well as re-treatment are not applicable on these products. The product is not a subject to cleaning, disinfection or sterilization
- Replace filter immediately if there is increasing resistance or any suspicion of contamination, occlusion or other indications of malfunction present.
Contraindications:
Make sure if you use drugs with surfactant properties that the hydrophobic pores are not blocked This can happen if drugs are nebulized in a circuit with a cascade humidifier.
Always consult with your drug manufacturer before nebulization of drugs or solutions for the first time.
