Aeroeclipse - Model XL BAN - Nebulizer
AEROECLIPSE* XL BAN* Nebulizer: Ideal for use by patients at home with a compressor. Single patient, reusable for 6 months. Can be used with a mouthpiece or mask (mask sold separately). Package includes one AEROECLIPSE* XL BAN* Nebulizer with mouthpiece, EZ TWIST Tubing and instructions for use. A compressor (sold separately) is required for use at home (available in Portable or Table Top).
Breath Actuated Delivery
With breath actuated delivery, aerosol is only produced when you breathe in. This means medication is not wasted between breaths or if you need to take a break (for example if you need to cough or have a conversation). This puts you in control of your aerosol treatment. Other nebulizers continuously produce aerosol regardless of whether you are inhaling, exhaling or resting, resulting in medication being lost to the air instead of delivered to your lungs.
Designed with patients in mind
- Green feedback button moves down as you inhale to encourage slow, deep breath
- Mouthpiece can be removed and replaced with a mask
- Exhalation Valve directs exhaled breath away from your face and eyes
- Disassembles into just 4 parts for easy cleaning
- Ensure the exhalation valve on the mouthpiece faces down.
- Inhale and exhale through the mouthpiece to verify the movement of the green feedback button on the top of the nebulizer.
- Unscrew and remove the top of the nebulizer. Place prescribed medication into the nebulizer cup. Reattach the top and gently hand tighten.
- Attach one end of the tubing to the fitting in the bottom of the nebulizer and the other end to the compressor. Ensure both ends are securely attached.
- Turn on the compressor.
- Place the mouthpiece in mouth, and inhale slowly and deeply. As you inhale, the green feedback button will move into the down position. This indicates the nebulizer is producing aerosol. Exhale normally.
- Continue to inhale from the nebulizer until it starts to sputter.
- Turn off the compressor.
- Ensure the exhalation valve on the mouthpiece faces down.
- Inhale and exhale through the mouthpiece to verify the movement of the green feedback button on the top of the nebulizer.
