  • HME in discrete design with speech option via easy finger lock
  • Due to its very low respiratory resistance, the LARYVOX® EXTRA HME SPORT is well suited for use in sporting activities
  • Excellent tactility: a rounded recess in the lid of the HME simplifies the locking mechanism and makes optimal positioning of the finger very easy to feel
  • The lateral openings of the LARYVOX® EXTRA HME SPORT allow a largely unimpeded and easy breathing - even under clothing.
  • A rabbet around the housing allows easy and quick removal of the HME (e.g. when coughing)
  • With 22 mm adapter (KOMBI) to connect to any conventional base plates (e.g. LARYVOX® TAPE) or silicone tubes for laryngectomees (e.g. LARYNGOTEC®)

The filter medium with a very low breathing resistance for sporting activities integrated in the LARYVOX® EXTRA HME SPORT housing serves for exchanging heat and moisture and filters the respiratory air. Due to the loss of breathing by mouth and nose, filtration, warming and humidification of the respiratory air must be ensured in order to prevent irritation of the airways due to dry air, dust, or harmful substances contained in the respiratory air. After surgery, tracheotomised/laryngectomised patients often suffer from increased production of mucus and irritation of the airways associated with an urge to cough. These symptoms can impair breathing and voice rehabilitation. Regular use of HME filter cassettes alleviates the symptoms through reduction of viscous secretions in the lungs and promotes pulmonary rehabilitation.
