Now, a single system lets you administer heliox therapy to a broad range of patients from pediatric to adults. The Aptaér™ Heliox Delivery System is an easy, non-invasive way to manage patients with severely compromised airways. Heliox therapy has been shown to help decrease the work of breathing and in some cases may help to avoid endotracheal intubation.¹
Best of all, it is extremely simple to use and helps to save clinicians’ time by decreasing the number of heliox cylinder changes.

The Aptaér Heliox Delivery System provides one efficient delivery method for a wide patient population. Machine calibration is simple; therapy can be started easily and quickly. The process is highly automated and takes the guesswork out of gas delivery, helping clinicians use the system with a higher degree of confidence than other, homemade systems. Compact size makes the unit easy to move and to position in care areas.

The Aptaér Heliox Delivery System uses a premixed blend of heliox from a source gas cylinder and delivers it to a spontaneously breathing patient through a sealed facemask. The system provides pressure support to further reduce inspiratory effort.
