Optimal Respiratory Environment for Neonates

Our neonatal heated wire circuit maintains precise humidity and temperature (30C-39C), delivering optimal respiratory conditions to preterm and term infants. Its embedded heated wire technology ensures warm, moist air/oxygen delivery, helping reduce airway irritations, and minimizing condensate build-up due to the integrated water trap.

Comprehensive Compatibility & Safety

Designed for universal application, this circuit features ISO standard 22mm and 15mm connectors, ensuring compatibility with all major neonatal ventilators and heated humidifiers. The circuit is manufactured from soft, medical-grade PVC, and is kept sterile with a SAL of 10^-6, supporting the highest safety standards for neonatal care.

User-Centered, Single-Use Design

The disposable circuit is lightweight (approx. 120g), portable, and supplied in an individual sterile pouch for immediate, safe use. Its anti-kink, highly flexible tube ensures easy handling and patient comfort, while the smooth inner lumen provides efficient gas flow up to 15 L/min, further supporting gentle neonatal respiratory support.

FAQ's of Plastic Disposable Neonatal Heated Wire Circuit:

Q: How should the Neonatal Heated Wire Circuit be used in the NICU?

A: Simply connect the circuit to a compatible neonatal ventilator using the standard ISO connectors (22mm or 15mm), attach it to an external heated humidifier, and connect to the patient's airway. Always ensure the circuit is used only once and disposed of after each use to maintain sterility and prevent cross-contamination.

Q: What makes this circuit suitable for both preterm and term neonates?

A: The circuit features precise temperature and humidity control within the 30C-39C range, low noise operation, and a lightweight, flexible design. These attributes ensure gentle respiratory support tailored for preterm and term infants in intensive care.

Q: When is it recommended to replace the heated wire circuit?

A: This product is strictly intended for single use only. Replace the circuit with a new one for each patient and session. Reusing or attempting to sterilize for reuse is not recommended and compromises patient safety.

Q: Where should the circuit be stored before use?

A: Store the circuit in its sealed, individual pouch in a cool, dry location, away from direct sunlight. Proper storage ensures sterility for up to five years until the point of use.

Q: What is the process for connecting the water trap to prevent condensate aspiration?

A: The circuit comes with a pre-installed water trap. During setup, ensure the water trap is in the lowest segment of the tubing to collect condensate efficiently and reduce the risk of fluid reaching the infant's airway.

Q: How does the heated wire technology benefit neonatal respiratory care?

A: The embedded heated wire maintains the required temperature and humidity of delivered gases, thereby minimizing airway desiccation, reducing the risk of airway blockage, and ensuring comfort for the neonate during respiratory support.
