    Leakages in the system, such as may be caused by bronchial fistulae, will render this system less effective. [clarification needed] Other negative effects of this technology include increased secretions (i.e. mucus) and nosebleeds, either or which may clog an HME. In such cases, the application of active respiratory gas humidifiers is recommended.
