Ultrasonic or compressor inhaler?
Compressor and ultrasonic inhalers - nebulizers do not exclude, but rather complement each other. If we talk about their advantages and disadvantages, then each model has its pros and cons. Compressor inhalers can work with any medicine, but they are quite noisy and bulky, so it is almost impossible to take them with you on the road.

Ultrasonic nebulizers are able to fit in a pocket or purse, and are virtually silent during operation, but there are some restrictions on the choice of drugs. It is known that ultrasound, by which the solution of the drug is converted into an aerosol, destroys some of the active ingredients of the drugs, for example, some types of antibiotics and hormones. Therefore, be sure to consult your doctor before buying an inhaler, especially when it comes to treating a child.

Remember, in childhood, mother and grandmother believed that there is nothing better for illness than inhalation over hot potatoes? Do you remember your feelings? A red, flushed face, large drops of sweat, heavy breathing in a cloud of steam under a thick coverlet ... Of course, there was a healing effect, but you were hardly a fan of this procedure.

Today, thanks to scientific progress, the pot with hot potatoes has been replaced by a compression medical device that can be used both for the treatment and prevention of diseases. The AED inhaler is the most widely used on the market. It is about him that I want to tell you more.

Inhaler - what is it? What is it for?

Nebulizers are called inhalers that can spray drugs with a stream of compressed air. These devices can be aerosolized, allowing them to be delivered directly to the respiratory system. It is possible to perform inhalations with a nebulizer even at high temperatures, since the aerosol stream is not hot.

The device is suitable for the treatment of both children and adults. It is especially worth noting that the AED inhaler is recommended for use by the elderly, as their body may reject drugs in tablet or powder form. By the way, the name of the device was not accidental. It is derived from the Latin word nebula, which means "fog", "cloud". A cold aerosol suspension can actually be considered a medicinal mist.

Varieties of nebulizers

Leading manufacturers of medical equipment produce several types of devices:

Convection nebulizers. This is the simplest type of inhaler that creates an aerosol stream with constant activity and speed.
Breath-activated nebulizers. An economical device using the Venturi effect. There is virtually no loss of drug aerosol during exhalation. And more modern models have a valve system that blocks the flow of medicine on exhalation.
dosimetric inhalers. These are sensory devices that produce an aerosol only when inhaled.

Various companies that produce a similar inhaler (Omron, AND, B.Well) offer devices of different price categories. Nebulizers are used in physiotherapy rooms, inpatient departments of hospitals (pulmonology, ENT zone). Often, children's clinics and intensive care units are equipped with such units. But the most important thing is that such a device is very convenient to use at home.

Sphere of therapeutic influence

Nebulizers, including the AND inhaler, create aerosol suspensions from medicinal solutions with microparticles of a substance of different diameters. The therapeutic effect of inhalation depends on their size: medicinal particles of 8-10 microns in size affect the oral cavity, 5-8 microns - on the upper sections (nasopharynx, larynx), 3-5 microns - 1-3 microns - on bronchioles, 0 .5-2 microns - on the alveoli. The AND portable inhaler regulates the diameter of aerosol particles with special nozzles. This allows you to transport drugs to the focus of the inflammatory process. Thus, the therapeutic effect of inhalation is significantly increased.

Diseases that nebulizers help fight

Modern inhalers face very important tasks. So, for example, an AED inhaler is able to achieve the following goals:

It eliminates bronchial spasms.
Enhances drainage function.
Carries out sanitation of different parts of the respiratory system.
Eliminates swelling of the larynx, trachea and bronchi.
Fights inflammatory processes.
Stimulates local immune responses.
Enhances microcirculation in the mucous membranes.
Prevents and protects against allergens.

Given this list, it can be argued that the AND nebulizer can help treat almost any respiratory disease. This is the basis for the extraordinary popularity of such devices. Let us consider in more detail several models of nebulizers, which are presented in pharmacies and medical equipment stores.

Model description of the CN-231 AED inhaler

The Japanese manufacturer AND produces a compact model of a portable device. This is the AND 231 inhaler. It is able to break the medicinal liquid into microparticles from the minimum (0.5 microns) to the maximum (10 microns) sizes. The kit includes 2 and 5 replacement filters. The design of the device is very convenient. You can control it with one button. The container for medicinal liquid has a volume of 13 ml.

The device is equipped with a sensor that turns off the inhaler from the network in case of overheating. Compressor weight - 1.5 kg. It is able to provide inhalation at an average rate of 0.2 ml / min. The device operates in intermittent mode: after 30 minutes of aerosol production, half an hour of rest follows to cool the compressor. Power consumption - 70 W. This nebulizer model copes well with laryngitis, laryngotracheitis, bronchitis, obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, pneumonia and SARS.

Model description of the CN-233 AED inhaler

The AND-233 inhaler is intended for the prevention and elimination of acute and chronic diseases of the respiratory system. This model is more compact. The weight of its compressor is 1.2 kg. Inhalations with the device are able to reach all parts of the respiratory system. All international quality standards are taken into account during production.

Continuous operation of the compressor is possible for no more than 30 minutes, after which the unit must cool down. Overheating shutdown occurs automatically. Power consumption - 60 W. Since the model is more compact, the medicine capacity is smaller than in the previous device. The device holds no more than 6 ml of liquid. This AED is also supplied with two masks of different sizes and a set of spare filters.

How to care for the device after the procedure?

After completing each procedure, the device must be put in order. The medicine container, masks and hoses must be rinsed with clean water and dried. Otherwise, the device becomes contaminated with pathogenic flora, and the drug solution crystallizes on the walls of the container and hoses. When cleaning, do not allow liquid to enter the compressor - this is important! The instructions for use of the inhaler always indicate the rules for cleaning the device. There you can also find the requirements for storing the nebulizer.

There are special concentrated solutions and sprays for express disinfection of parts of the inhaler. They process masks, cannulas, nozzles, mouthpieces and even apparatus bodies. This is especially important if the device is used by several people. Nebulizer air filters must be replaced. Their expiration date is indicated in the instructions.

How to carry out the inhalation procedure?

Inhalation should not be carried out after eating or physical activity. The break must be at least 1.5 hours. Do not take expectorants before using the nebulizer. If the procedure is carried out through the mouth, then they need to exhale the air. For nasal inhalation, special cannulas are used. In this case, inhalation should be done through the nose, exhalation through the mouth.

The duration of one procedure should not exceed 15 minutes, with a short break every minute so that dizziness does not start. The device is placed on a stable surface. The patient conducts inhalation while sitting, without tilting the body forward. When spraying steroid drugs and antibiotics with the device, the patient should rinse his mouth after the procedure. When using an aerosol breathing mask, wash your face, avoiding the eye area.
