10. Troubleshooting
Problem/Ques-
tion
Possible Cause/Remedy
The atomiser
produces
little or no
aerosol.
1. Too much or too little medicine
in the atomiser.
Minimum: 0.5 ml,
Maximum: 6 ml.
2. Check that the nozzles are not
blocked If necessary, clean
the nozzle (e.g. by rinsing).
Use the atomiser again.
CAUTION: Only poke imple-
ments through the fine holes
from the underside of the
nozzle.
3. The atomiser is not held in an
upright position.
4. The medicine solution is
unsuitable for nebulising (e.g.
too thick).
The medicine solution should
be specified by the doctor.
Output is too
low.
Hose kinked, filter blocked, too
much inhalation solution.
Which
medicines are
suitable for
inhalation?
Consult your doctor.
Essentially all medicines that
are suitable and approved for
device-based inhalation can be
inhaled.
Some inhalation
solution
remains in the
atomiser.
This is normal and occurs for
technical reasons. Stop inhala-
tion if you hear a notable differ-
ence in the noise of the atomiser.
What special
steps should be
taken for babies
and children?
1. In babies, the mask should
cover the mouth and nose to
guarantee effective inhalation.
2. In children, the mask should
also cover the mouth and
nose. Nebulisation next to a
sleeping person is not suitable
because insufficient medicine
reaches the lungs.
Note: Children should only use
the device with help and under
supervision of an adult. Never
leave a child alone with the
nebuliser.
Inhalation with
the mask takes
longer.
This is for technical reasons.
Less medicine is inhaled per
breath through the mask holes
than using the mouthpiece. The
aerosol is mixed with ambient air
through the holes in the mask.
Problem/Ques-
tion
Possible Cause/Remedy
Why do I need
to replace the
atomiser at
regular inter-
vals?
There are two reasons for this:
1. To guarantee a therapeutically
effective particle spectrum,
the nozzle holes should not
exceed a certain diameter.
Due to the thermal and me-
chanical stresses, the plastic
is subjected to a certain
amount of wear. The nozzle
attachment [8] is particularly
susceptible to this wear. This
can also cause changes to
the droplet composition of the
aerosol, which has a direct ef-
fect on the effectiveness of the
treatment.
2. You are also recommended
to replace the atomiser on
a regular basis for hygiene
reasons.
Does each per-
son need their
own atomiser?
This is absolutely necessary for
hygiene reasons.
