Treatment Of Patients With A Surgically Created Opening In The Windpipe (Tracheostoma); Hygiene - Pari SOLE N Series Manual

Special masks may be obtained for treating babies and infants
who are not yet able to inhale using the mouthpiece.
The nebulisers are only designed for patients who are able to
breathe by themselves and are conscious. This is the only way
to ensure effective treatment and avoid a choking hazard.
1.4 Treatment of patients with a surgically
created opening in the windpipe
(tracheostoma)
Tracheostomised patients cannot use the mouthpiece to inhale
and therefore need the PARI TRACHEO SET with a special
tracheostoma mask for an inhalation session. When the
tracheostoma mask is used, the inspiratory valve must not be
attached to the nebuliser. This ensures unobstructed expiration
and avoids the risk of shortness of breath.

1.5 Hygiene

Observe the following hygiene instructions:
– Do not use product components unless they have been
thoroughly cleaned and dried. Contamination and residual
moisture encourage the growth of bacteria, so increasing
the risk of infection.
– Before every use and cleaning, wash your hands
thoroughly.
– Make absolutely sure you also carry out cleaning and drying
before using the device for the first time.
– For cleaning and disinfection, always use fresh water with
reduced calcium content.
– Make sure all components are dried properly whenever you
have performed cleaning or disinfection.
– Do not keep the product and accessories in a damp environ-
ment or together with damp objects.
