DAR Adult - Pediatric HME Filters - 353U5908 and 353U5413 by Medtronic are intended for use with adult and pediatric patients who are either anesthetized or require respiratory care with a breathing circuit. When a patient's upper airway has been bypassed with a breathing system, filters like these can serve a critical function for the health of patients by removing viruses, bacteria, and particulate matter before harmful agents can be inhaled into the airway. These hygroscopic filters are able to trap the moisture from the air exhaled by the patient in order to reduce the amount of heat that is lost. As a result, the patient's inspired air is warmed and humidified. The DAR HME Filters provide low airflow resistance so that breathing does not become more difficult for patients. These HME filters are designed for single patient use and are meant to be replaced at least once per 24-hour period. Each filter is individually packaged and sterile.
