Trilogy Whisper Swivel
Trilogy Whisper Swivel is an exhalation port fitting used in Philips Trilogy ventilator circuits that allows exhalation to occur at a specific point in the circuit with reduced noise output. It is a comfort and clinical configuration accessory that helps manage CO2 washout while minimizing the sound of exhalation — an important quality-of-life consideration for patients and families in home ventilation settings.
OxyCare supplies Trilogy ventilator circuit components and accessories alongside Trilogy ventilator setups for home and hospice patients on mechanical ventilation.
