NEBULIZER THERAPY – WHAT IS IT?
Nebulizer is a device for formation and spraying of aerosol. The word “nebulizer” is derived from the
latin word “nebula” (fog, cloud) and was first used in 1874 for a device that turns a liquid substance into
an aerosol for medical purposes. One of the first portable “aerosol apparatuses” was created by j. Sales-
girons in paris in 1859. The first nebulizers were used as steam jet energy sources and were applied for
inhalation the vapors of resins and antiseptics by tuberculosis patients. Presently, the term “inhaler” is
often used instead of “nebulizer”.
The purpose of the nebulizer therapy is to quickly deliver to the respiratory passages a therapeutic doze
of a preparation in aerosol form. Continuous supply of aerosol allows, within several minutes, creating
high concentration of a medicine in the upper and lower respiratory passages and lungs, with low prob-
ability of any by-effects. Respectively, effective bronchodilation (bronchi expansion) is reached, and the
need for hospitalization is eliminated or the hospital stay is reduced.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Compressor nebulizer LD is designed for treating the diseases of respiratory passages and lungs by med-
icine solution aerosols.
This Instruction Manual is designed to assist the user with safe and effective operation of the Compressor
Nebulizer LD.
Use this Device according to the rules described in this Manual. Operate the Device only as intended. Do not
use the Device for any other purposes. Read and understand the whole Instruction Manual.
Functionally, the device consists of an air compressor and nebulizer (aerosol formation chamber). The
air compressor, on/off power switch and air filter are united in one casing. From the air compressor, the
compressed air is fed through a pipe to the nebulizer, where aerosol is formed. For cooling the compres-
sor, air is force-feed into the device’s casing.
