The speaking valve is intended to assist tracheostomy patients with the speaking, swallowing, and management of airflow. The side oxygen port allows for supplemental oxygen if needed. The optional and replaceable filter can be used to prevent course particles entering the respiratory system. The device is intended only for single patient use.
