A model system described in International Organization for Standardization 9360 is the standard method for estimating the humidifying performance of heat and moisture exchangers (HMEs). However, there are no reliable bedside methods for evaluating the ongoing humidification performance of HMEs. Therefore, this study aimed to develop 2 clinically applicable methods for estimating the ongoing humidifying performance of HMEs and to evaluate their reliability in a model system.
