INTRODUCTION
The Omron CompAir®XL Compressor Nebulizer System is a
portable medical device designed to efficiently deliver physician
prescribed medication to the bronchial lung passages.
This product was developed in conjunction with respiratory
therapists for the successful treatment of asthma, allergies and
other respiratory disorders. Omron's compressor creates a stream
of air that travels through clear tubing to the nebulizer. When the
air enters the nebulizer it will convert the prescribed medication
into a mist of microscopic droplets that are inhaled.
CAUTION: Federal law (USA) restricts this device to sale by or
on the order of a physician. Operate this unit only as instructed by
your physician and/or respiratory therapist. Thoroughly read and
understand the information contained in these instructions on the
use and care of this unit before operating. Save these instructions
for future reference. Any use of this product other than the purpose for which it is intended shall void the warranty.
