Description

The ResMed Leak Valve Americas is a single-patient-use component designed for respiratory therapy applications, particularly compatible with the ResMed Stellar, Astral, and Lumis TX devices. Its key feature is an integrated anti-asphyxia valve (AAV), which ensures patient safety by allowing airflow through vent holes in case of ventilator failure. This mechanism prevents the rebreathing of exhaled carbon dioxide. The valve is typically used in invasive setups with single or dual-limb circuits.

This product is intended for short-term use, ranging from 1 to 7 days, and is compatible with a variety of tubing and filter systems. It is primarily suited for applications requiring efficient airflow management and enhanced patient safety during ventilation therapy.
