    ADInstruments spirometer set-up
    The photo shows, from left to right, the original HME cassette of both the XF and XM with speaking valve (pink lid), the 3D‐printed (FormLabs, Form2) closed cassette with inserted XF foam and the 3D‐printed (FormLabs, Form2) cassette with bypass on the tracheal side, with inserted XM foam (note the difference in pore size between the two different foams). A speaking valve was not included in the 3D printed cassette designs to simplify the prototyping and to limit the scope of this proof of principle study to only the effect of the bypass.

    The two HME cassette types. A, Design of the closed cassette for the XF foam measurements. B, Design of the closed cassette for the XM foam measurements. The bypass on the tracheal side of the cassette is closed off with a “twist‐ring.” C, 3D‐design of the cassette with opened bypass for the XM foam measurements. The specific bypass consists of eight d = 4 mm holes at the base of the cassette and can be opened or closed by adjusting the “twist‐ring.” D, “Twist‐ring” concept as seen on salt shakers. The bar at the base and the two small holes at the top of the cassettes, intended for inserting a pin, keep the HME foam in place during the measurements. The thicker cylinder at the base of the 3D‐printed cassettes is used to connect them to the measurement set‐up (spirometer). HME, heat and moisture exchanger; XF, lower resistance/lesser humidification HME; XM, high resistance/high humidification HME
