Smoothbore inspiratory limbs with embedded heated wires in a reinforced spiral construction. Delivers optimal humidity and manages excess rain-out.1
The embedded heated wire throughout the length of the inspiratory tube reduces build-up of rain-out in the circuit compared to conventional heated wire circuits. This provides improved heat distribution in the wall of the breathing circuit, minimises cold spots, maintains gas temperature and humidity levels.
To deliver respiratory gases at optimal temperature and humidity to the patient during High Flow Oxygen Therapy, Flexicare offers our single limb heated wire breathing system in Neonatal, Paediatric and Adult configurations to address the needs of each individual patient, enhancing patient care and improving clinical outcomes.
Reduced risk of accidental drainage of rain-out into the patient’s airway.2
Accurate delivery of gas volumes and ventilation pressures to the patient.
Helps prevent gas temperature loss and surface cold spots, minimising rain-out.
