Statement of Intended Use
The DeVilbiss compressor/nebulizer includes an AC powered air compressor that provides a source of compressed air for
home health care use. The compressor is used in conjunction with a jet (pneumatic) nebulizer to convert certain inhalable
drugs into an aerosol form for inhalation by a patient. The device can be used with adult or pediatric patients.
NOTE– If using a nebulizer other than one distributed by DeVilbiss, verify that the pressure and/or ow characteristics of
the nebulizer (while driven by the DeVilbiss compressor) meet the nebulizer manufacturer’s recommendation.
