Description
Compressor nebulizers are used to efficiently deliver medication in the form
of a mist to the lungs.
This device delivers compressed air to aerosolized drugs based on the
Venturi principle. Compressed air is driven through a converging nozzle
where it is accelerated to a high velocity stream, creating a vacuum
(Venturi effect). The vacuum sucks the liquid from the nebulizer cup
through a cylindrical channel and delivers it into the emerging airstream
formed by the nozzle, thereby mixing it with an impact on a rigid surface.
This process uses energy from the airstream to convert liquid into small
droplets called aerosol. When reaching the user, aerosol is suitably refined
to enter the lungs effectively.
According to medical research, when the size of the atomized particle
of a drug is within 1~5μm, the drug can best reach the peripheral
bronchioles and lung periphery. Besides, the absorption rate in the
gastric, nasal and pharyngeal areas is lower than that in peripheral
bronchioles and lung.
This method of delivery is beneficial in the treatment of asthma and other
respiratory ailments. With proper use and care your new nebulizer will
provide you with years of safe and effective breathing therapy treatments.
CAUTION: Federal law restricts this device to be sold only on the
order of a physician. Operate this unit only as instructed by your
physician or respiratory therapist.
