Madonna uses Vapotherm as the highest standard of care to provide heated humidification to tracheostomy patients. Tracheostomy patients are typically unable to humidify on their own which often results in thick and retained secretions in the lower airway. Vapotherm's heated humidification improves mucociliary function and mobilization of secretions, helping the patient breathe more easily and accelerating the ventilator and tracheostomy weaning process.
Madonna received the Vapotherm Center of Excellence designation in 2017 for using Vapotherm's technology in ventilator and tracheostomy weaning protocols.
