What to do if the nebulizer is not aerosolizing correctly on my Hillrom Medical Equipment?
If the nebulizer on your Hillrom medical equipment isn't aerosolizing correctly, first, ensure it's properly connected. If it is, the nebulizer may be dirty. Clean or replace it, referring to the nebulizer package for cleaning instructions.
Why is the CHFO or CPEP therapy weak on my Hillrom Medical Equipment?
If you're experiencing weak CHFO or CPEP therapy with your Hillrom medical equipment, ensure it's connected to an approved 50 psi oxygen source. Also, check that the selector ring is set to the 2 or 3 dot setting for the desired effect and the CPEP knob is set to the appropriate level.
What to do if there are no pulsations or flow in my Hillrom Medical Equipment?
If your Hillrom medical equipment shows no pulsations or flow, ensure that both the Mode selector switch and the On/Off switch are in the correct positions. Also, verify that the unit is connected to an approved 50 psi oxygen source.
Why will the circuit not function on my Hillrom Medical Equipment?
If the circuit on your Hillrom medical equipment isn't functioning, first, disconnect it and then reconnect it correctly. If there's a leak in the interface tubing, replace the circuit. If the O-rings are worn or missing, replace them. Finally, ensure that the master switch is turned ON.
How to fix circuit that will not connect correctly on Hillrom Medical Equipment?
If the circuit on your Hillrom medical equipment won't connect correctly, replace the O-rings. If the port is damaged, replace the entire unit.
