The Provox BasePlate Adaptor is an accessory product for rehabilitation after total laryngectomy. It allows attaching medical devices with ISO 15mm standard connector to a tracheostoma by fitting it into a Provox Adhesive base plate, Provox LaryButton or Provox LaryTube. A typical example would be to attach an HME with built-in oxygen adapter (TrachPhone). For single patient use.
A non-sterile device designed as a filter for protecting a stomal opening in the windpipe (surgically-created artificial opening between the trachea and the body surface through which the patient can breathe) against harmful external influences. It may also function as a heat & moisture exchanger (HME) intended to capture the patient's exhaled breath so that it can be used to warm and moisten inspired air to help keep the trachea lubricated and prevent its mucosa from drying. It is typically designed as a hydrophobic foam filter of various sizes held in place with an adhesive strip. This is a single-use device changed regularly according to the manufacturer's instructions.
