Vyaire – Edith HME’s – AirLifeâ„¢ Edith heat and moisture exchangers (HMEs) meet the requirements for adult and pediatric patients in the OR, ICU and other respiratory care environments. The Edith Trach was specially designed to support tracheostomized patients, allowing spontaneously breathing patients to benefit from heat and moisture conservation.
Vyaire – Edith HME’s conserve a patient’s heat and moisture by capturing the heat and moisture from a patient’s expired breath and then release it into the next inspired breath. HMEs thereby help create normal conditions in patient airways and lungs, reducing the risk of breathing complications.
MME’s main goal is to make life saving medical equipment available to you! If you have a question beyond Edith HME’s, give us a call at 866-837-7131Â and our customer service experts would be happy to assist you!
