A humid vent, such as the Teleflex 11112 Heat and Moisture Exchanger Humid-Vent (Case of 50), is used to add moisture to the air that a patient breathes during mechanical ventilation or oxygen therapy. This helps prevent the drying out of the respiratory tract, reducing discomfort and infection risk, and supports healthy airway function for patients receiving artificial respiratory support.
