A. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS - LC
®
SPRINT
CAUTION
US Federal Law restricts this device to sale by or on the
order of a physician. Use only when prescribed by a physician
and with the prescribed medication.
The LC
®
Sprint is a handheld nebulizer, designed to aerosolize
medication approved for nebulization and prescribed by a
physician. The LC
®
Sprint is intended for adult and pediatric
patients consistent with the indications for the aerosol
medication. Improper use can result in serious or fatal illness
or injury. Nebulizer is not sterile.
WARNING
Use only when prescribed by a physician and with the
prescribed medication. In order to achieve the specified
droplet characteristics the compressor or central air
supply must provide 3.5 - 8 lpm at a minimum of 20psi.
WARNING
1. To reduce the risk of increased bacterial growth,
infection, illness, or injury from contamination:
thoroughly clean and dry all parts of the nebulizer
and thoroughly dry any moisture or condensation in
the tubing at the end of every treatment following the
enclosed instructions.
2. Cleaning the nebulizer after each treatment is not
enough---you must regularly disinfect or sterilize the
nebulizer between treatments to prevent serious or
fatal illness caused by contamination of the nebulizer.
3. Never use a nebulizer with a clogged nozzle. If the
nozzle is clogged, the aerosol mist will be reduced,
altered or stopped, which will diminish or eliminate
the effectiveness of the treatment. If clogging occurs,
replace with the same model PARI Reusable Nebulizer.
4. Close supervision is necessary when this product is
used by or near children and physically or mentally
impaired. Never use when sleeping or drowsy.
5. This product contains small parts that may present
a choking hazard to small children. The tubing also
presents a strangulation hazard. ALWAYS USE CLOSE
ADULT SUPERVISION WHEN ADMINISTERING A
TREATMENT TO A CHILD. DO NOT LEAVE CHILD
UNATTENDED DURING TREATMENT.
6. Patients under the age of 4 or any patients who have
special needs should use a facemask instead of the
valved mouthpiece.
7. Before use, check PARI Reusable Nebulizer for proper
assembly. All parts should be seated firmly in place.
Use of an improperly assembled nebulizer could
diminish or prevent adequate delivery of medication
and the effectiveness of the treatment.
