HYGIENIC RE-USE

In order to prevent a risk to health, e.g., infection due to a con-
taminated nebuliser, it is imperative that the following hygiene
regulations are followed.
®
The INQUA nebuliser is designed for multiple uses. It must not be
used by more than one person. A separate nebuliser must be pro-
vided for each patient.
To do this, follow these instructions:

The nebuliser, the mouthpiece and the child or adult mask must
be cleaned and disinfected before they are used for the first time
and after each application.

Wash your hands thoroughly before every use and cleaning.
Additional requirements concerning the necessary hygienic
preparations (hand disinfection, handling of medications and
inhalation solutions) in high-risk groups (e.g., users with sup-
pressed immune systems, patients with cystic fibrosis) can be
obtained from the respective self-help groups.

The connection tubing cannot be cleaned nor disinfected either
chemically or by boiling (see Chapter "Care of the connection
tubing", page 44).
