2. Description of Equipment
2.1 Intended purpose
The breath humidifiers SOMNO click /
SOMNO click 300 are used to add moisture
to the airflow generated by sleep apnoea
units.
The aim of sleep apnoea therapy is to prevent
the airway obstructions occurring with sleep
apnoea. An undesirable side-effect of this
therapy is that with certain patients the upper
airways dry out due to the increased airflow.
The breath humidifiers humidify and warm up
the breath, thereby preventing the mucous
membranes from drying out.
SOMNO click can only be used with the
Weinmann therapy units SOMNO comfort ,
SOMNO vent S/ST, SOMNO smart 2,
SOMNO set , SOMNO vent CR,
SOMNO vent auto-S/ST
and
SOMNO soft
+. They must not be used with
third-party units.
There are two variants:
– SOMNO click with a maximum
capacity of 200 ml
and
– SOMNO click 300 with a maximum
capacity of 300 ml.
