IMPORTANT INFORMATION
1.1 Intended purpose
The PARI inhalation system consists of a PARI compressor, a
PARI nebuliser and PARI accessories. The system is used for
treatment of the lower airways.
The inhalation system must only be used by individuals who
understand the contents of the instructions for use and are able
to operate the inhalation system safely. Individuals in the fol-
lowing groups must be supervised by a person who is respons-
ible for their safety:
– Babies, infants and children
– Individuals with limited capabilities (e.g., physical, mental,
sensory)
If the patient is not able to operate the inhalation system safely
himself, the therapy must be carried out by the responsible
person.
Compressor
The purpose of the PARI compressor is to generate com-
pressed air for operating a PARI nebuliser.
The PARI compressor is intended for use with multiple pa-
tients. It must only be used for PARI nebulisers. The com-
pressor can be operated by the patient himself and must only
be used indoors.
Nebuliser
The nebuliser generates aerosols

The nebuliser must only be used in a home environment and
only by a single patient for reasons of hygiene. It is suitable for
use in treating patients in all age groups.
Only solutions and suspensions that are approved for use in
nebuliser therapy may be used.
