Provox XtraFlow HME

After a total laryngectomy, you breathe through a stoma which means that cold, dry air is inhaled directly into the lungs. This often results in undesirable side effects such as increased coughing and mucus production, sleeplessness and other social implications.

An HME (heat- and moisture exchanger) acts as an artificial nose and regains some of the lost respiratory functions of the nose. The Provox XtraHME heats and moisturizes inhaled air, since the specially treated foam inside the HME cassette traps heat and moisture during exhalation.

is focusing on having superior airflow. XtraFlow is great to use when exercising and when adapting to the breathing resistance after having been without an HME for a longer time.
