Precautions to take while using Provox XtraMoist HME

  • Always test the function of the Provox XtraHME Cassette prior to use. The top lid should immediately return to its open position after releasing the finger.
  • Do not disassemble the Provox XtraHME Cassette since this will interfere with its proper function.
  • Do not reuse the Provox XtraHME Cassette or attempt to rinse it with water or any other substance. This will substantially reduce the function of the HME. Additionally the risk of potential infections may increase due to bacterial colonization of the foam.
  • Do not use the Provox XtraHME Cassette longer than 24 hours. The risk of potential infections may increase with the time of use due to bacterial colonization of the foam.
  • Do not administer medicated nebulizer treatment over the device since the medication can become deposited in the device.
  • Do not use humidifiers or heated humidified oxygen via a mask over the tracheostoma while using the device. The HME will become too wet. If oxygen therapy is required, use only non-heated humidified oxygen.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

The Provox XtraHME Cassette is not intended to be used by patients unable to remove or operate the device, unless the patient is under constant supervision of a clinician or a trained caregiver. For example, patients who are unable to move their arms, patients with decreased levels of consciousness, or patients with diseases that put them at risk for unpredictable periodic loss of consciousness. Do not use the Provox XtraHME Cassette in combination with cuffed tracheal cannula; breathing may be restricted and suffocation may occur. Do not use on patients with a low tidal volume, as the added dead space (5 ml) may cause CO 2 (carbon dioxide) retention at too low tidal volume.
