PMV SPEAKING VALVE #medico #nursing #shortsvideo #shots

The Passy-Muir Tracheostomy Speaking Valve allows your loved one with a tracheostomy to potentially voice and produce speech sounds. It is a one-way valve that connects to the tracheostomy tube. The valve opens during inspiration to allow air to go into the lungs and then closes during expiration and forces air up through the vocal cords to allow for potential voicing and/or production of speech sounds.
