1.5 Treatment of babies, children and anyone who requires
assistance
Babies, children and anyone who requires assistance must be supervised constantly
by an adult during inhalation therapy. This is the only way to ensure safe and effective
treatment. Individuals in this group often underestimate the hazards involved, thus
resulting in a risk of injury.
Make sure that you always keep all components of the product out of the reach of ba-
bies and infants.
Special masks may be obtained for treating babies and infants who are not yet able to
inhale using the mouthpiece.
1.6 Hygiene
Observe the following hygiene instructions:
– Before every use and cleaning, wash your hands thoroughly.
– Do not use product components for inhalation therapy unless they have been
cleaned.
– Do not keep the product and accessories in a damp environment or together with
damp objects. Contamination and residual moisture encourage the growth of bac-
teria, so increasing the risk of infection.
– Make absolutely sure you also carry out cleaning before using the device for the
first time.
