Safety instructions
Intended use
The eFlow
®
rapid is a reusable electronic
inhalation system for the treatment of dis-
eases of the respiratory system and lungs.
It is suitable for temporary oral inhalation
of liquid medication prescribed or recom-
mended by a doctor for use in the home,
hospital or doctor's practice.
The eBase Controller can also be used to
operate the drug-specific
Altera
®
nebuliser handset. The Altera
®
nebuliser handset is solely designed for
inhalation of the medication Cayston
®
(aztreonam lysine). The instructions for
cleaning the eFlow
®
rapid nebuliser hand-
set apply correspondingly to the Altera
®
nebuliser handset.

while it is in operation, or used in damp

inspected for damage before every
inhalation session.

pletely cut off.

than that patient! Use by several patients
is only permitted in clinics and doctors'
practices, and only in conjunction with ap-
propriate sterilisation procedures.
