About Respiratory
Respiratory disease is a medical term that encompasses pathological conditions affecting the organs and tissues that make gas exchange possible in higher organisms, and includes conditions of the upper respiratory tract, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli, pleura and pleural cavity, and the nerves and muscles of breathing. Respiratory diseases range from mild and self-limiting, such as the common cold, to life-threatening entities like bacterial pneumonia, pulmonary embolism, and lung cancer.
The respiratory system (or ventilatory system) is the biological system that introduces respiratory gases to the interior and performs gas exchange. In humans and other mammals, the anatomical features of the respiratory system include airways, lungs, and the respiratory muscles. Molecules of oxygen and carbon dioxide are passively exchanged, by diffusion, between the gaseous external environment and the blood. This exchange process occurs in the alveolar region of the lungs.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a nebulizer?
A device that delivers medication to the lungs via an inhalable mist.
What are nebulizers used to treat?
Nebulizers treat a variety of respiratory conditions including bronchitis, allergy, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma.
Which drugs can be nebulized with nebulizer device?
Antibiotics, Corticosteroids, Bronchodilators, Mucolytics
How often do I disinfect the product?
Cleaning of the nebulizer is recommended after each aerosol treatment. Disinfecting is recommended once a day.
How do I clean the product?
a. Turn the power off and unplug from the wall outlet.
b. Remove the tubing from the air inlet.
c. TO CLEAN: Disassemble mouthpiece, T-mouthpiece, nebulizer cup, chamber and baffle, and wash this items in
c. hot water with dish-washing detergent Rinse these items thoroughly to remove the detergent and let air dry.
d. TO DISINFECT: Mix one part of white vinegar with 3 parts hot water in a clean container. Submerge mouthpiece,
d. T-mouthpiece, nebulizer cap, chamber and baffle for half an hour in the solution. Remove from solution and
d. let air dry.
e. There is no need to clean the tubing. If necessary wipe the surface regularly.
How often do I change the filter?
The filter of air compressor should be replaced when it turns gray.
Where to buy the filters?
Additional filters can be procured from your dealer.

Technologies
VA - Technology
VAT - Valve control nebulization rate - With the adjustable bottle for flow rate control, the delivery of any mediation will be fast and efficient. The Valve Adjustable Technology (VAT) is based on different levels of flow rate (0.2 – 0.4 CC/min). The flow rates can be adjusted by the user in a very easy way without exchanging parts. High flow rate is for high viscosity medications and high breathing capacity user whereas the low flow rate is recommended for children or infant. Thanks to the reduction of wasted medication, VAT is also recommended for severe respiratory disorders such as COPD and Asthma as well as intensive use in general.
Consistent Particle Size
For efficient respiratory treatment - The average particle size of our nebulizer with VA Technology is around 2.1μm (MMAD), and FPD (Fine Particle Dose) is above 81% tested by Cascade Impactor which ensures more efficient and effective treatment.
