When using a pressure gauge
NOTE
Impaired treatment due to damaged pressure gauge
If the pressure gauge is damaged, the measurement results
displayed may be incorrect.
• If the pressure gauge has been dropped or suffered a
similar impact, contact the manufacturer or distributor.
• During the therapy session, monitor the expiratory resis-
tance displayed on the pressure gauge. If this is constantly
different from the prescribed value, the expiratory resistance
must be adjusted [see: Adjusting expiratory resistance,
page 14].
PEP therapy
• Block your nose with the nose clip.
• Hold the mouthpiece between your teeth, close your lips
tightly around it and breathe in slowly and deeply.
• Exhale through the mouthpiece.
The exhaled air should pass through the hole in the
PEP S adjusting ring.
• Cough to clear any secretion that is loosened during the
treatment.
For reasons of hygiene, avoid coughing into the
PARI PEP S System.
• Continue the PEP therapy session for the period recommen-
ded by your doctor or physiotherapist.
