ACCU-PEEP Threshold Resistor Valves

ACCU-PEEP disposable threshold resistor valves deliver a fixed, predictable level of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) during manual and mechanical ventilation. Respiratory therapists and emergency clinicians rely on these valves to keep alveoli open, improve oxygenation, and maintain functional residual capacity in patients requiring ventilatory support.

The defining feature of a threshold resistor is consistency: unlike orifice-type PEEP devices whose resistance changes with flow rate, a threshold resistor holds the same expiratory pressure regardless of how fast the patient exhales. That flow-independent performance is what makes ACCU-PEEP valves clinically dependable when you need a specific, reproducible pressure at the airway.

Each valve is labeled by the exact pressure it delivers, so respiratory teams can select the setting the patient's care plan calls for. The ACCU-PEEP Threshold Resistor Valve at 5.0 cm H₂O (9005B) is one such fixed-value device — a mid-range setting commonly applied to support oxygenation without imposing excessive pressure on the airways. Valves are available across a range of cm H₂O values so you can stock the increments your protocols use most.

Because ACCU-PEEP valves are single-patient-use, they support infection-control practices and eliminate the reprocessing burden of reusable PEEP devices. They connect readily to standard resuscitation bags and ventilator circuits, making them a practical addition to crash carts, transport kits, and respiratory supply rooms. Buyers typically ask two questions: which pressure to stock and whether the valve is fixed or adjustable — ACCU-PEEP answers both by offering discrete fixed values that remove guesswork at the bedside.

Honest Medical carries ACCU-PEEP alongside other precision clinical products from manufacturers whose names begin the same way, including Accu-Ruler and Accu-Scope Inc. For diagnostic supplies, see Accu Chek.
