3. Open the nebulizer package and read and
follow the nebulizer Instructions For Use.
Note: Your PRONEB Compressor may
contain either an interrupter or a nebulizer stand for the enclosed nebulizer. The
interrupter or nebulizer stand attach to the bottom of the nebulizer as follows:
SIDEVIEW: PRONEB
The interrupter allows the aerosol
mist to be generated when the patient inhales (button pressed), and shut off (button
released) when the patient exhales. This minimizes the wastage of medication. Your
physician should decide whether or not an interrupter should be used. The nebulizer stand
simply allows the nebulizer to be placed in the nebulizer holder on top of the PRONEB with
the tubing attached.
Cleaning the PRONEB Housing and
Tubing
Use a damp cloth to wipe the exterior of the
PRONEB housing and tubing. Never spray fluid into the ventilation slots on the PRONEB
Compressor. Fluid could cause damage to the electrical and compressor parts and could lead
to a malfunction. In the event that fluid enters the unit, contact a PARI authorized
service center.
Filter Replacement
Under normal conditions, the filter on
the front panel of the PRONEB should be replaced after 500 hours of use, or sooner if it
appears soiled (grey), clogged or wet. Check the condition of the fiIter after every 10-12
treatments. Do not attempt to wash and re-use filters.
