Aerogen Solo Nebuliser

Sold as Each

The Aerogen Solo is uniquely designed remaining in place during ventilation. This closed system delivers more inhaled medication to the lungs, in less time, with less residual volume, compared to jet nebulizers, giving confidence in a more effective and controlled treatment.

The medication reservoir is isolated from the breathing circuit which minimizes nebulization of contaminated fluids. The risk of exposure to bioaerosols is reduced because the need to open the circuit is eliminated.

It delivers more effective medication throughout the hospital through mechanical ventilation and non-invasive support such as non-invasive ventilation (NIV), high flow therapies (HFNC) and spontaneously breathing patients. This only requires minimal management and can be left inline reducing staff handling and workload.

Features:

• Replacement Nebulizer
• Hands-free, high performance aerosol drug delivery system
• Operates with ventilated and non-ventilated patients when coupled with the Aerogen Ultra
• Single patient use for up to 28 days intermittent or 7 days continuous
• Fits all standard aerosol masks
• Easy to set up and virtually silent operation, with no added flow required
