Without effective protection, patients run a greater risk of infection due to Gram-negative bacteria and viruses. In fact, the incidence of nosocomial infections in patients admitted to ICU’s and thus exposed to such gas flows is 5 to 10-fold higher than those in general wards.
The Gibeck range of breathing filters has been independently tested and proven to be highly efficient in preventing the passage of bacteria and viruses such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Hepatitis C, HIV, Serratia marcescens, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and MS-2 coliphage. (The efficiency is not affected by humidity and/or anaesthetic gases).

The Humid-Vent filter is a high-performance heat and moisture exchanger (HME) coupled with a hydrophobic bacterial/viral breathing
filter. The HME has a bacteriostatic effect, which is supplemented by the high level of protection provided by the hydrophobic, electrostatic filter. The Humid-Vent filter range comprises Light, Compact, Small and Pedi versions. The Humid-Vent Filter Small is particularly versatile; it offers adult performance in a child-sized format (dead space 27 ml) with a tidal volume extending up to 1000 ml.
