The LC Jet can be used with either the
central air supply in a hospital or a PARI compressor. For use with a central air supply,
a flow range of 3.5-6 1/min. must be selected in order to achieve the specified droplet
characteristics.
1. Check to ensure that the nebulizer has
been cleaned, disinfected and/or sterilized since the last treatment (see section
"Cleaning the LC Jet" and "Disinfecting and Sterilizing the LC Jet").
2. Pour prescribed medication (and diluent,
if necessary) through the opening in the top of the nebulizer (1) and into bottom of
nebulizer (5).
3. Attach mouthpiece (3) or mask (part #
14-20 and 14-15 not included) to nebulizer outlet.
4. Connect one end of the tubing (7) to the
air intake (6) on the bottom of the nebulizer
5. Connect the other end of the tubing to
the central air supply. If using a PRONEB or PARI Master compressor, insert the ridged end
of the tubing adapter (8) into the end of the tubing as far as it will go. Insert the
tubing adapter into the air outlet of the PRONEB or PARI Master compressor.
WARNING:
Check the LC Jet for proper assembly. All
parts should be seated firmly in place. Use of an improperly assembled nebulizer could
prevent adequate delivery of medication. |
1. Sit relaxed in upright position.
2. Turn on central air supply or PARI
compressor.
3. Close lips around mouthpiece and inhale
aerosol mist.
4. Remove nebulizer from mouth and exhale
slowly. Do not exhale through mouthpiece.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until medication is
gone.
