Carefusion 003007 - HEPA Filtered HCH with Gas Sampling Port, Adult Size, Heat and Moisture Exchanger (HME) for Respiratory Circuits, 20/CA

Carefusion 003007 - HEPA Filtered HCH with Gas Sampling Port, Adult Size, Heat and Moisture Exchanger (HME) for Respiratory Circuits, 20/CA

The Carefusion 003007 is a high-efficiency, single-use adult Heat and Moisture Exchanger (HME) combined with a HEPA filter and integrated gas sampling port. Engineered to deliver passive humidification while ensuring filtration of airborne contaminants, this device is ideal for use in ventilated patients requiring both airway humidification and respiratory gas analysis.

With HEPA-grade filtration, the 003007 HME protects both patients and equipment by trapping bacteria and viruses while maintaining airway humidity. The built-in gas sampling port provides accurate end-tidal CO2 (EtCO2) monitoring without disconnecting the ventilator circuit, preserving PEEP and minimizing contamination risk.

Key Benefits

• Dual-function device provides heat and moisture exchange plus HEPA-level filtration in a single unit.

• Integrated gas sampling port allows seamless EtCO2 monitoring.

• Reduces the risk of cross-contamination by filtering out bacteria and viruses =99.97%.

• Preserves patient airway humidity, reducing complications like mucus plugging and tissue drying.

• Single-use, latex-free design promotes high infection control standards.

• Compact and lightweight for minimal circuit drag and improved patient comfort.

Compatibility and Applications
Compatible with:

• Adult mechanical ventilator circuits

• Anesthesia circuits requiring filtration and EtCO2 monitoring

• Endotracheal or tracheostomy tubes with standard connectors

Used in:

• Intensive care units (ICU)

• Operating rooms and post-anesthesia care units (PACU)

• Emergency and trauma departments

• Transport ventilation systems

Usage Guidelines
Connect the device between the patients airway (ET or tracheostomy tube) and the ventilator circuit. Ensure the sampling port is connected to a compatible gas monitoring system. Replace the unit according to hospital protocol or when visibly soiled or resistant to airflow. Discard after single use.

Certifications, Safety Standards, and Regulatory Approvals

• FDA-cleared and CE-marked

• HEPA filter performance tested to meet =99.97% efficiency for airborne particles =0.3 microns

• Manufactured in ISO 13485-certified facilities ensuring compliance with international quality and safety standards

Comparison with Competitor Products
Compared to standard HMEs, the Carefusion 003007 provides superior infection control through its integrated HEPA filter. The added gas sampling port gives it a significant advantage in procedures that require continuous respiratory monitoring, eliminating the need for additional ports or adapters. Its compact design and triple functionality make it a preferred option in high-risk, high-dependency environments.

Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios
Used by:

• Respiratory therapists

• Anesthesiologists

• Critical care and emergency physicians

• Transport teams handling ventilated patients

Ideal for:

• Adult patients on mechanical ventilation or anesthesia

• Situations requiring concurrent humidification, filtration, and gas sampling

• High-infection-control environments, including COVID-19 care and isolation units

Best Practices for Use and Maintenance

• Use only once; discard after patient use or per facility protocol.

• Monitor airway resistance and replace if clogged or saturated.

• Ensure secure attachment of sampling lines to prevent leaks.

• Store sealed in a clean, dry environment until use.

Regulatory and Safety Information
The 003007 is fully compliant with medical safety standards for respiratory filtration and humidification. It contains no natural rubber latex and is safe for use in sensitive and high-acuity care environments.
