3. Choosing between 3 different Nebulisation Rates
The nebuliser generates an aerosol with variable characteristics to
adapt to the patient’s respiratory pathology. It can produce an
aerosol with the granulometric characteristics that will deposit the
maximum amount of the drug in the respiratory tract being treated.
Choose one of the 3 following therapeutic treatment settings by
regulating the wheel on the nebuliser’s 5 upper body:
