Tracheostomy & Ventilator Swallowing and Speaking Valves

16. I got my PMV when I was in the hospital. Now I need a replacement. How do I get a new PMV?

If you are a patient at home using the PMV, you will need to call your physician and get a prescription for a new PMV. Most patients give the prescription to their home care supply company or durable medical equipment (DME) company. Usually, it will be the company who is providing you with tracheostomy tubes, section catheters and other respiratory type of equipment. If you are having trouble locating a company to provide you with your PMV, or have other questions on this issue, please contact us.
