The Aerogen
®
Ultra is an accessory specific to the Aerogen Solo nebuliser. It facilitates intermittent and continuous
nebulisation, with optional supply of supplemental oxygen to paediatric and adult patients via mouthpiece. The device
can alternatively be used with a face mask, as supplied.
It is a single patient use device which is qualified for 20 intermittent use treatments (at a rate of four 3 ml doses per day
over 5 days) or 3 hours of continuous use.
For continuous use, the Aerogen Ultra can be used in conjunction with the Aerogen Solo Continuous Nebulization Tube
Set. See Aerogen Solo System Instruction Manual.
Optimal aerosol delivery is achieved with valved mouthpiece or valved aerosol face mask with low/no oxygen flow.
The Aerogen Ultra is for use in spontaneous and conscious breathing patients only.
The Aerogen Ultra, Mouthpiece, Aerogen Solo nebuliser, oxygen tubing and I-Guard
TM
Aerosol Mask are non-sterile.
The filter is not supplied by Aerogen. The image of the filter has been included for demonstration purposes. It is the
responsibility of the clinician to determine if a filter is required and the type of filter selected for use (Viral/Bacterial) in
conjunction with the Aerogen Ultra. When selecting a filter for attachment to the Aerogen Ultra mouthpiece, Aerogen
recommend using a filter with a minimum efficiency rating of 99.9% (Bacterial) or 99.8% (Viral).
If using the Aerogen Ultra in conjunction with a filter, refer to the filter manufacturer’s Instructions for Use for information
including filter disposal.
For disposal of the Aerogen Ultra, Mouthpiece, Aerogen Solo nebuliser and oxygen tubing, refer to hospital or
