How A Compressor Nebulizer Help With Covid?

By BH CAREBH CARE Product, Nebulizer

Do Compressor Nebulizer Treatments Help With Covid？

1.The impact of the (COVID-19) on the lungs.

The lungs are the organs most affected by COVID‐19。

A trauma surgeon who has treated thousands of COVID-19 patients since March has warned of a dire symptom that can affect many COVID-19 survivors. The lungs of some COVID-19 survivors “look worse than the lungs of any type of horrible smoker we’ve ever seen.

For those infected, beating the coronavirus and surviving COVID-19 is not the end of the story. And complications may include pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), multiple organ failure, septic shock, and death.

Even if symptoms are not present after the infection clears, the lungs may take longer to heal.

Therefore, it is very important to use a compresser nebulizer to clear the lungs.

2.What does a compressor nebulizer do for lung disease？

It can relieve bronchospasm, thin sputum, and prevent and treat respiratory tract infection through aerosol inhalation administration.

In many respiratory diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), bronchial asthma, etc., aerosol inhalation can be used for treatment.

Due to the advantages of rapid onset of drug effect, low dosage, high local drug concentration and few systemic adverse reactions, atomization inhalation has become an important adjuvant therapy in the treatment of respiratory diseases.

3.What does a compressor nebulizer treatment help with Covid？

A virologist has published his latest research results – aerosol inhaled anti-new crown drugs. Since then, many other media have also reported on this research. The drug draws on the research results of SARS and targets the ACE2 receptor that the new coronavirus acts as a target to develop a lyophilized powder anti-new crown drug. After atomization inhalation, it directly provides protection on the surface of the lungs, and can exert a long-term and broad-spectrum effect. This broad-spectrum anti-new crown drug can be used for prevention and treatment of mild cases to prevent the disease from becoming severe.

Patients with new coronary pneumonia have symptoms such as respiratory tract edema, mucus and even phlegm plugs. Mixing hydrogen and oxygen will improve the patient’s breathing, which is better than pure oxygen inhalation. If the mixed gas can carry drugs, the effect may be better.

Nebulizer for Adults & Kids

1.When should a child & adult use a compressor nebulizer?

Adults: In the period of throat discomfort, inhalation with normal saline to humidify the respiratory tract can relieve throat discomfort to a certain extent.

Children: In the early stage of cold symptoms, inhalation with normal saline to humidify the respiratory tract can prevent the aggravation of cold symptoms to a certain extent.

And the following symptoms:

Relief of early symptoms of colds/prevention of colds
Rhinitis
Acute laryngitis
Bronchitis
Asthma etc

2.Which nebulizer is best for adults & kids?

For general household use, it is recommended to directly consider the [Compressed Nebulizer]. The atomized particles are 2-5 μm, the deposition rate of the drug in the lungs is the highest, and the natural treatment effect is the best, but it is not the smaller the particles, the better, the particles are too small to pass through There is no deposition in the lungs to affect the therapeutic effect.

[Compressed Nebulizer] It is suitable for all people (adults/elderly/children) and major respiratory diseases. The nebulizer is not the bigger the better the better. The final effect depends on:

Medications used (as directed by your doctor);
The size of the atomized particles determines the parts of the body that act on them;
Frequency of inhalation/breathing;
The pharmaceutical industry wastes the amount, and part of the mist will be blown out of the cup when exhaling, which means that the dosage is insufficient.

3.What does a compressor nebulizer treatment do for kids?

The nebulizer can decompose the drug to make the molecules smaller and easier to absorb.
Atomization is mostly used for the treatment of respiratory diseases. It can be inhaled through the mouth and nose, directly acting on the target organs, and the effect is fast.
For babies who can’t take medicine, atomization can reduce a lot of trouble of feeding medicine.
It can be used when the child is crying, quiet, sleeping, etc. It is easy to use.

4.Is compressor nebulizer safe for child?

【No Danger】

Children’s nebulization is generally not dangerous. It is necessary to communicate with the child to let the child breathe with his mouth open as much as possible. The effect of completely inhaling the drug into the throat will be more obvious. At the same time, it is necessary to take the drug regularly, drink more warm water to enhance metabolism, and do not eat spicy food & irritating food.

The use of aerosol inhalation therapy in children can keep the respiratory tract at the proper degree of humidification and humidification, relieve bronchospasm, thereby reducing airway resistance and facilitating the discharge of secretions.

It can cooperate with the breathing of the child to deposit particles with a higher unit drug concentration in the inhaled air directly on the lesion, so that the effect of the drug can be fully exerted. Compared with other routes of administration, the drug dose is small, so there are fewer systemic side effects.

FAQ

-Is nebulizer machine good for cough?

Cough caused by inflammation is better treated by atomization. The atomized liquid contains airway dilating drugs and expectorants, which can effectively expectorate phlegm.

When the cough reflex is caused by inflammatory infection, the sputum can be excreted by atomization.

For the elderly, turning over and slapping the back after nebulization has a good expectoration effect.

For children, when inhaled drugs cannot be used together,atomization is the first choice to reduce airway inflammation, dilate airways, relieve spasm and relieve asthma.

-Is compressor nebulizer good for asthma?

For irritating cough caused by asthma or allergies, it can also be treated by nebulization.

–Is a nebulizer a breathing machine?

Nebulizers and ventilators are two completely different medical devices.
Nebulizers are mainly used to treat various upper and lower respiratory diseases.
Breathing machine are suitable for those with hypoxemia.

–Is a nebulizer a breathing machine?

Nebulizers are effective for lung cleansing. Administration through a nebulizer can dilute sputum, relieve bronchospasm, prevent and treat respiratory infections.

How to use nebulizer?

By BH CAREBH CARE Product, Nebulizer

Nebulizer is a device which could atomize the liquid. In our daily life, this kind of equipment is more common than we think. According to different applications, there are many types of nebulizers, such as air humidifier which is helpful for humidification of the interior, hair spray equipment for hair styling, or medical nebulizer who belongs to medical equipment and is used to treat diseases like upper respiratory infection (URI). In this article, we’d like to focus on medical nebulizer who is able to help our patients and gives them fast relief from inflammation.

1.What is a nebulizer used for?

2.How does a compressor nebulizer work?

3.What is the difference between ultrasonic and compressor nebulizers?

4.How do you use a nebulizer for a cough?

5.Is a nebulizer good for your lungs?

6.Do you need a prescription for a nebulizer?

7.What are the side effects of using a nebulizer?

8.Is nebulizer better than inhaler?

1.What is a nebulizer used for?

Nebulizer atomizes the liquid medicine into tiny particles, and the medication enters the respiratory tract and lungs to deposit by breathing inhalation, so as to achieve painless, rapid and effective treatment.

On the one hand, due to poor air quality or change of seasons, there are more and more patients including a lot of children with poor autoimmunity suffering from respiratory diseases such as colds, fever, cough, asthma, sore throat, pharyngitis, rhinitis, bronchitis, pneumoconiosis and other related diseases such as trachea, bronchus, and alveoli. By traditional methods, they should take some medicine, have an injection or transfusion. Injection or transfusion may bring not only more pains but also side effects by conveying medical solution to all parts of body. Nebulizer helps transfer medicine directly to the respiratory system via breath and solves perfectly this problem.

On the other hand, when there is an attack of asthma, the bronchi are in a state of spasm. Nebulizer is able to transport medicine like bronchodilators to bronchus, in this situation, symptoms can be relieved quickly.

2. How does a compressor nebulizer work?

Compressor nebulizer is a type of nebulizer, also called jet nebulizer. It forms a high-speed airflow through a small orifice with the help of compressed air. The negative pressure generated drives the liquid or other fluids to be sprayed onto the barrier together. Under high-speed impact, splashing around makes the droplets become mist-like particles and ejected from the air outlet pipe. Compressor nebulizer is able to atomize original medicine without dilution. Therefore, the clinic effect is better with high utility ratio of medicine and almost zero residual medicine. Besides, the atomized particles are also ultra-fine, so they can on one hand enter to the bronchus and lungs easily, on the other hand provide more comfort for human inhalation, even the children could inhale easily. Compressor nebulizer is very suitable for the treatment of lower respiratory tract diseases.

3. What is the difference between ultrasonic and compressor nebulizers?

Besides compressor nebulizer, medical nebulizer includes also ultrasonic nebulizer and mesh nebulizer.

Ultrasonic nebulizer uses electronic high-frequency oscillation (the oscillation frequency is 1.7MHz or 2.4MHz, which is beyond the range of human hearing, and the electronic oscillation is not harmful to humans and animals), through the high-frequency resonance of the ceramic atomizer, it breaks up the water molecules to water spray without heating or adding any extra chemical reagents. Compared with the heating atomization method, it could save 90% of energy. In addition, a large number of negative ions will be released during the atomization process, which will react electrostatically with smoke and dust floating in the air to precipitate them. At the same time, it can effectively remove formaldehyde, carbon monoxide, bacteria and other harmful substances, so that the air can be purified and incidence of diseases will be reduced.
Ultrasonic nebulizer could atomize a grand amount of liquid, but the atomized particles are also relatively large, could not reach to lower respiratory tract. Compressor nebulizer is able to produce smaller particles without dilution of water.

Compared to the general ultrasonic nebulizer, mesh nebulizer is able to produce ultra-fine particles by a low energy. Among all the medical nebulizer, mesh nebulizer is the smallest and lightest one in the world with advantages of ultrasonic nebulizer and compressor nebulizers. Mesh nebulizer is really small device which is easy to carry and easy to use, therefore it is suitable for pediatric patients with asthma.

4. Do you need a prescription for a nebulizer?

No, nebulizer doesn’t need a prescription. At present, the nebulizers in the market include two types: medical nebulizers who are aimed at are mostly for patients with respiratory diseases in the hospital or clinic, and household nebulizers which are used by individual. Medical nebulizers are able to produce spray more fine and achieve a better absorption effect, the treatment efficiency will improve accordingly. Household nebulizers are smaller and easier to use. Nowadays, in order to better help patients who need to use nebulizers to get rid of their diseases, many brands have produced medical-grade household nebulizers, which not only have the advantage of medical nebulizers to produce particles sufficiently fine, but also reserve the advantages of household nebulizers – portability. For patients suffering from rhinitis, pharyngitis, sore throat, cold, bronchitis, pneumonia, asthma, cough and other respiratory diseases, the treatment effect is better.

However, please notice, the nebulizer is a medical equipment which we can buy without prescription, but the medicine we use do need recipe of doctors to make sure that patients are well treated.

5. What are the side effects of using a nebulizer?

Nebulize generally has almost no side effects if you use it properly. Nebulized inhalation therapy is a commonly used method to treat the respiratory system. The therapeutic drugs are sprayed into the respiratory tract through a nebulizer to achieve the purpose of treatment, such as anti-inflammatory, anti-asthmatic, anti-allergic, and expectorant. During the clinic procedure, the regular and standardized use of nebulization therapy has basically no major side effects. Except a part of elderly people with poor coordination ability may have breath difficulties or cough a little, but it doesn’t matter. However, if it is not used properly, there may be adverse reactions. For example, the use of drugs that are known to be allergic to nebulization may cause allergic reactions or even life-threatening and shock death; in addition, if the concentration of medicine is too high, the dose is too large, or time of nebulization is too long, that may cause cough throat discomfort and even lung discomfort, the obvious coughing symptoms may aggravate respiratory diseases. Besides, if patients use special aerosolized drugs such as glucocorticoids for a long time, it may cause oral problems like local fungal infection.

However, please notice, the nebulizer is a medical equipment which we can buy without prescription, but the medicine we use do need recipe of doctors to make sure that patients are well treated.

6. How do you use a nebulizer for a cough?

The use of nebulizer is easy, we could take BH care nebulizer as example. BH care nebulizer includes mouth piece, adult mask, child mask, air tube, air filter (5 pcs), bottle. First of all, you unscrew the lid of the atomizing cup, and then pour the appropriate amount of medicine into the atomizing cup according to the doctor’s order, and do not exceed the maximum scale. After screwing on the lid of the atomizing cup, you could connect the mouthpiece.

When we do the nebulization for a child, we should put him in the sitting, semi-sitting, or side lying position and avoid supine position. And then we hold the nebulizer upright to ensure sufficient nebulization. The mask needs to be about 5-10cm away from the baby’s nose and mouth. Do not press the nose and mouth tightly to avoid accidents such as suffocation. For older babies who are more cooperative, we need to remind them to breathe deeply with their mouths while nebulizing, and to exhale with their noses. Please notice time of nebulization should be controlled at about 15 minutes, and rinse patients’ mouth and face after nebulization.

7. Is a nebulizer good for your lungs?

Nebulizer is not harmful for the lung. Nebulization is not a medicine, but a way of medication. The medicine is not drunk directly by the patient, but a nebulizer is used to disperse the medicine into tiny droplets or particles, which are suspended in the gas. Through breathing, the medicine “mist” enters the respiratory tract and lungs to clean and moisturize the airway, so that the medicine acts in the body to achieve the purpose of treatment.

Therefore, if patients use medicine according to doctors’ prescription, nebulizer won’t hurt the lungs, with right medicine, nebulizer may be helpful for treatment of lung diseases like inflammation.

8. Is nebulizer better than inhaler?

Nebulizer and inhaler are two different ways of medication. In some degree, nebulizer is better than inhaler.

The inhaler is a small handheld device made of plastic and metal, including a pressurized tin which contains a drug solution. When we press the inhaler, it will release drug solution in a fixed measured dose. Patients need to coordinate his inhalation and the release of the drug, they should deeply and slowly breathe 4 to 6 times by mouth and inhale the aerosol released from the inhaler. After this, the patient needs to hold his breath for 10 seconds to allow the aerosol to settle on the bronchial wall.
Inhalers are cheaper, faster, and can be carried anytime, anywhere. Because of their cost-effectiveness, they are used for respiratory diseases in routine treatment. However, the inhaler needs to coordinate breathing so that the medicine can reach the lungs. The spacer device solves this problem to a large extent.

BH care Nebulizer for home us reach to the medical level with ultra-fine particle about 0.5-10 um, so it can achieve therapy more effective. This device has portable design, it is equipped with only one operation button so it can be easily used and ideal for all ages.
Besides, the noise of BH care Nebulizer is less than 65 dB which could provide you a quiet environment.

How to check the FDA certificate of a non-contact thermometer?

1.What’s Infrared non-contact thermometer?

Measuring a person’s temperature can be done in several ways. One method to measure a person’s surface temperature is with the use of non-contact infrared thermometers (NCITs). NCITs may be used to reduce cross-contamination risk and minimize the risk of spreading disease.

https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/general-hospital-devices-and-supplies/non-contact-infrared-thermometers

While typically 98.6°F (37.0°C) is considered a “normal” temperature, some studies have shown that “normal” body temperature can be within a wide range, from 97°F (36.1°C) to 99°F (37.2°C). Before NCITs are used, it is important to understand the benefits, limitations, and proper use of these thermometers. Improper use of NCITs may lead to inaccurate measurements of temperature.

3 Basic things you should know about Non-Contact Forehead Infrared Digital Thermometer | BH CARE

By BH CAREBH CARE Product, Thermometer

3 Basic things you should know about Non Contact Infrared Thermometer

1. What is non contact infrared thermometer?

2.Are non contact thermometers accurate?

3.What’s the price?

1. What is Non Contact Infrared Thermometer/contactless thermometer?

An infrared thermometer is a thermometer which infers temperature from a portion of the thermal radiation sometimes called black-body radiation emitted by the object being measured.

from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nebulizerhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_thermometer)

2. Are non contact thermometers accurate?

We need to take a serious look at the Clinic Research to answer this question.

Dr. Teran and his team have test 434 patients for the research. 167 were identified with fever.

The mean difference in temperature between the rectal temperature and the non-contact thermometer was 0.029 ± 0.01 °C, while the mean difference between the temporal artery thermometer and the rectal temperature was -0.20 ± 0.27 °C. The sensitivity and specificity for the non-contact thermometer is 97%. The negative predictive value is 99%.

In a word, the accuracy is not 100%, but it’s acceptable enough to rule out fever and avoid unnecessary laboratory work-up. The non-contact infrared thermometer is a reliable, comfortable and accurate option for measurement of temperature and is very useful for the screening of fever in the paediatric population. More studies are recommended to support the evidence found in this study and compare its accuracy with more complex devices.

And at this special time, it’s important to measure peoples temperature without touching fast, so the touchless thermometer seems to have more pros than cons.

How to know if I got the covid 19? Themermeter, pulse oximeter or even test kit | BH CARE

By BH CAREBH CARE Product, Pulse Oximeter, Thermometer

How to know if I got the covid 19? Themermeter, pulse oximeter or even test kit

1.Body Temprature – thermometer

2.Blood Oxygen Levels – pulse oximetry

3.COVID-19 test kit

1. Body Temprature – thermometer

Using a thermometer to monitor your body temprature and call your doctor if you have fever.

2. Blood Oxygen Levels – Pulse Oximetry

Low blood oxygen is a sign that something’s wrong with your lungs. A bad viral pneumonia like COVID-19 can cause those levels to drop.

You can track your blood oxygen levels (and your heart rate) with a pulse oximeter — it’s easy, painless, and non-invasive, and inexpensive.

What is pulse oximetry?

Pulse oximetry is a test used to measure the oxygen level (oxygen saturation) of the blood. It is an easy, painless measure of how well oxygen is being sent to parts of your body furthest from your heart, such as the arms and legs.

A clip-like device called a probe is placed on a body part, such as a finger or ear lobe. The probe uses light to measure how much oxygen is in the blood. This information helps the healthcare provider decide if a person needs extra oxygen.

Most of the pulse oximeters available online and over the counter are battery-operated and clamp on a finger.

What is a normal reading on an oximeter?

A measurement of your blood oxygen is called your oxygen saturation level. In medical shorthand, you may hear it called a PaO2 when using a blood gas and an O2 sat (SpO2) when using a pulse ox. These guidelines will help you understand what your result might mean:

Normal: A normal ABG oxygen level for healthy lungs falls between 80 and 100 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg). If a pulse ox measured your blood oxygen level (SpO2), a normal reading is typically between 95 and 100 percent.

However, in COPD or other lung diseases, these ranges may not apply. Your doctor will let you know what’s normal for your specific condition. For example, it isn’t uncommon for people with severe COPD to maintain their pulse ox levels (SpO2) between 88 to 92 percentTrusted Source.

6 Basic things you should know about nebulizer before taking order | BH CARE

By BH CAREBH CARE Product, Nebulizer

6 Basic things you should know about nebulizer machine before taking order are:

1.What is nebulizer?

2.What is a nebulizer machine used for?

3.How to choose the right Nebulizer System? What’s the price ?

4.What’s the Difference Between a Nebulizer and an Inhaler?

5.How to use a nebulizer?

6.How to maintain and clean the nebulizer machine?

1. What is nebulizer

In medicine, a nebulizer is a drug delivery device used to administer medication in the form of a mist inhaled into the lungs.(from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nebulizer)

A nebulizer machine system includes a nebulizer device or medicine cup, a compressor, tubing, mouthpiece and tubing connectors.

2. What is a nebulizer machine used for?

Nebulizer turns the medication from liquid to mist so it will be much more easier for patients to inhaled the medicine straightly into the lungs.

People have asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cystic fibrosis, bronchiectasis or other lung disease need nebulizer to take their medicine.

Sometimes, a doctor will prescribe a nebulizer for a child who has a respiratory infection, such as bronchiolitis.

Nebulized therapy is also called as “breathing treatment.” And a variety of medications — both for immediate relief and maintenance of asthma symptoms — are available for use with a nebulizer.

3. How to choose the right Nebulizer System? What’s the price ?

There are threee kinds of Nebulizer in the market, the Ultrasonic Nebulizer, the Compressor Nebulizer and Portable Nebulizer. Let me introduce all three for you so you can make the right decision.

Ultrasonic Nebulizer is the oldest technology, Compressor Nebulizer / Atomizer Jet Nebulizer is most common product and Portable Nebulizer is most convinience kind. The core technology is different for the three kind.

Portable Mesh Nebulizer : Mesh nebulizers are driven by a piezo-element and use ultrasonic frequencies to vibrate the mesh. The vibration of the mesh causes aerosol generation as the liquid passes through it.

Compressor Nebulizer/ Atomizer Jet Nebulizer : Jet nebulizers are connected by tubing to a compressor, that causes compressed air or oxygen to flow at high velocity through a liquid medicine to turn it into an aerosol

Ultrasonic Nebulizer : Ultrasonic nebulizer machine produce ultrasonic waves directly into the solution causing aerosol to be produced at the liquid surface.

But the real difference we should care is the Particle size of the medicine mist, because the smaller the size is, it will go deeper to our body.

Particle sizes from the nebulization process should ideally be in the range of 1 to 5 microns. Particles less than 1 micron will remain suspended in air and will not deposit within the bronchial tree. Particles greater than 5 microns tend to deposit in the upper respiratory tract.

Ultrasonic Nebulizer : 5 to 3 microns
Compressor Nebulizer/ Atomizer Jet Nebulizer : 2 to 5 microns
Portable Mesh Nebulizer : 1 to 5 microns

Nebulizers	Advantages	Disadvantages
Jet nebulizers with corrugated tubing	Cheap Easy to use Effective in delivering drugs that can	Inefficient Difficult to clean Need compressed not be delivered with pMDIs and DPIs gas and additional tubing
Breath-actuated & Breath-enhanced jet nebulizers	Drug delivery only during inhalation Easy to use Less medication wasted More efficient than JNs with tubing	Need sufficient flow to trigger drug delivery Takes longer to deliver drug Not ventilator-enabled More expensive
Ultrasonic nebulizers	Easy to use More efficient than jet nebulizer	Large residual volume Inability to aerosolize viscous solutions Degradation of heat-sensitive materials
Mesh nebulizers	Fast, quiet, portable Self-contained power source Optimize particle size for specific drugs More efficient than other nebulizers Easy to use	More expensive Cleaning can be difficult Medication dosage must be adjusted in transition from JNs Not compatible with viscous liquids or those that crystallize on drying

4. What’s the Difference Between a Nebulizer and an Inhaler?

Inhalers

Inhalers are portable, handheld devices that are available in two types:

Metered dose inhalers (MDI) are the most commonly prescribed. Like mini-aerosol cans, these devices push out a pre-measured spray of medicine. When the person squeezes the inhaler, a measured “puff” of medicine is released. Some MDIs have counters that indicate how many doses remain. If there’s no counter, the number of doses already used should be tracked, so that the inhaler can be replaced on time.

Kids who use a metered dose inhaler also might use a spacer, which attaches to the inhaler and makes it easier to use. A spacer is a kind of holding chamber for the medicine, which eliminates the need to closely coordinate squeezing the inhaler and inhaling the medicine. With an inhaler and spacer, the medicine can be inhaled slowly when the user is ready. So, it’s possible for very young kids and even babies to receive their medications using a metered dose inhaler with a spacer.

Spacers also make inhalers more effective. Sometimes with an MDI, the medicine will reach the back of the throat but not get down into the lower airways. A spacer helps to deliver the medicine into the lower airways, which is where it needs to go to work properly.

nebulizer machine

Nebulizers are electric- or battery-powered machines that turn liquid asthma medicine into a fine mist that’s inhaled into the lungs. The user breathes in the mist through a mouthpiece or facemask. Nebulizers vary in size and shape, but can be a bit bulky and noisy and may need to be plugged in.

A child doesn’t have to “do” anything to receive the medicine except stay in one place and accept the mouthpiece or facemask. It usually takes about 5 or 10 minutes to give medication by nebulizer, and sometimes longer. Nebulizers can be less effective if a child is crying during use, since less medicine will be inhaled.

5. How to use a nebulizer ?

There are two steps for using the nebulizer mechine, assemble the nebulizer and taking the treatment.

How to Assemble the Nebulizer and Air Compressor

Place the compressor where it can safely reach its power source and where you can reach the ON/OFF switch.
Wash your hands prior to preparing each treatment.
Use a clean nebulizer.
Measure the correct dose of medication and other solutions prescribed by your physician. Add these to the nebulizer.
Connect the air tubing from the compressor to the nebulizer base.
Attach a mouthpiece to the nebulizer.

How to use a nebulizer

Wash the hands.
Add the medicine to the medicine cup, according to the doctor’s prescription.
Assemble the top piece, tubing, mask, and mouthpiece.
Attach the tubing to the machine, according to the instructions.
Turn the nebulizer on; they can be battery- or electrically powered.
While using the nebulizer, hold the mouthpiece and medicine cup upright to help deliver all the medication.
Take slow, deep breaths through the mouthpiece and inhale all the medicine.

If the Nebulizer Is Not Misting

Check all connections.
Refer to manufacturer’s instructions

6. How to maintain and clean the nebulizer

First of all, it’s very important to clean and maintain the nebulizer in the daily use, it’s not only for the personal health, the reminding medicine

Boiling Water

Wash your hands.
Take the nebulizer apart.
Put all the parts of the PARI LC JET+ TM except the mask, tubing and interrupter in boiling water for 10 minutes.
After boiling the nebulizer shake off any excess water
Reattach the nebulizer pieces and tubing to the air compressor and turn on the compressor to dry the nebulizer quickly. Make sure the nebulizer is completely dry before storing the nebulizer.
Vinegar and Water

Wash your hands.

Soak all parts of the nebulizer (except mask, tubing and interrupter) for 1 hour in a solution of 1 part distilled white vinegar and 3 parts hot water. The solution should be fresh. Remove the parts from the vinegar solution and rinse them in water. Discard the solution.
Shake off any excess water.
Reattach the nebulizer pieces and tubing to the air compressor and turn on the compressor to dry the nebulizer quickly. Make sure the nebulizer is completely dry before storing the nebulizer.
The tubing is replaced every two weeks because it is difficult to clean and dry properly.

5 basic thing you need to know about Pulse Oximeter before purchasing

By BH CAREBH CARE Product, Pulse Oximeter

5 Basic Thing You Need To Know About Pulse Oximeter Before Purchasing are:

1.What is an oximeter used for? Why might I need pulse oximetry?

2.How does pulse oximeter work?

3.What is a normal reading on an oximeter?

4.What level of oxygen is dangerous?

5.Pulse oximeter price?

1.What is an oximeter used for? Why might I need pulse oximetry?

Pulse oximetry is a measure of how much oxygen is in the blood.

https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/318489

Pulse oximetry is a noninvasive method for monitoring a person’s oxygen saturation (SO2)(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse_oximetry). It is an easy, painless measure of how well oxygen is being sent to parts of your body furthest from your heart, such as the arms and legs.

A clip-like device called a probe is placed on a body part, such as a finger or ear lobe. The probe uses light to measure how much oxygen is in the blood. This information helps the healthcare provider decide if a person needs extra oxygen.

Every system and organ in the body needs oxygen to survive. Without oxygen, cells begin to malfunction and eventually die. Cell death can cause severe symptoms and ultimately lead to organ failure.

Pulse oximetry may be used to see if there is enough oxygen in the blood. This information is needed in many kinds of situations. It may be used:

During or after surgery or procedures that use sedation

To see how well lung medicines are working
To check a person’s ability to handle increased activity levels
To see if a ventilator is needed to help with breathing, or to see how well it’s working
To check a person has moments when breathing stops during sleep (sleep apnea)

Pulse oximetry is also used to check the health of a person with any condition that affects blood oxygen levels, such as:

Heart attack
Heart failure
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
Anemia
Lung cancer
Asthma
Pneumonia

https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/treatment-tests-and-therapies/pulse-oximetry

2.How does pulse oximeter work?

Pulse oximeters are clip-on devices that measure oxygen saturation. The device may be attached to a finger, a wrist, a foot, or any other area where the device can read blood flow.

Oxygen saturation can drop for many reasons, including:

suffocation
choking
infections, such as pneumonia
drowning
diseases, such as emphysema, lung cancer, and lung infections
inhaling poisonous chemicals
heart failure or a history of heart attacks
allergic reactions
general anesthesia
sleep apnea

Pulse oximeters work by shining a light through a relatively transparent area of the skin. The light shines through to a detector positioned on the other side of the skin.

For example, when a pulse oximeter is clipped onto a finger, one side of the clip shines the light, and the other detects it.

The amount of light absorbed by the blood indicates the oxygen saturation. A pulse oximeter does not directly measure oxygen saturation but instead uses a complex equation and other data to estimate the exact level.

3.What is a normal reading on an oximeter?

A measurement of your blood oxygen is called your oxygen saturation level. In medical shorthand, you may hear it called a PaO2 when using a blood gas and an O2 sat (SpO2) when using a pulse ox. These guidelines will help you understand what your result might mean:

Normal: A normal ABG oxygen level for healthy lungs falls between 80 and 100 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg). If a pulse ox measured your blood oxygen level (SpO2), a normal reading is typically between 95 and 100 percent.

However, in COPD or other lung diseases, these ranges may not apply. Your doctor will let you know what’s normal for your specific condition. For example, it isn’t uncommon for people with severe COPD to maintain their pulse ox levels (SpO2) between 88 to 92 percentTrusted Source.

4.What level of oxygen is dangerous?

An oxygen level below 88% can be dangerous for any period of time. An oxygen level below 85% warrants a trip to the hospital. Keep in mind that an oxygen level 80% and lower puts your vital organs in danger, so it is important to keep a blood oxygen level chart handy so you know what levels require immediate treatment.

5.Pulse oximeter price

There are many device available in the market, the price is from 15 USD to 100 USD, so what’s the real differences and how could we choose?

Pulse Oximeter Shopping Tips

Accuracy: Select a device with no more than a 2 percent plus or minus margin of error.
Battery Life: How long do the batteries last? The pulse oximeters we chose have batteries that last 30 to 40 hours, which can last years.
Display: Does the unit have an easy-to-read display in all light conditions? Look for things like back-lit displays and rotating displays.An another big difference is that does the device has pulse rate waveform? Which can help monitoring the pulse rate in a period of time
Alarms: Does the pulse oximeter device warn you about a low battery, when you are low on oxygen or have a low heartbeat?
Durability: Look to see what kind of warranty comes with each pulse oximeter model. This often speaks to the durability of the device.
Fit: Does the unit fit your finger comfortably? Most pulse oximeters come in the range of 0.5 to 3 inches. The pulse oximeter should fit snugly around your finger. If your finger bulges out, the oximeter is too small. Before ordering a pulse oximeter online, measure your finger from the tip of your nail to the bottom of the pad or first line on the end of your finger.

We believe, the most important three things you need to store for you and your family’s health during the Coronavirus(COVID-19) are: mask, thermometer, and oximeter.

We believe, the most important three things you need to store for you and your family’s health during the Coronavirus(COVID-19) are:

mask
thermometer
oximeter

Let’s explain more about why. We also provide all these product as a pack, contact us if you want to take a order.

3.What if you do have the Symptoms but can not test in time and been aks to Self-Quarantine , how to monitor your health: Oximeter
What I should know before purchasing Oximeter? What is a normal reading on an oximeter? What level of oxygen is dangerous?

1.Firstly, how to protect your self in public: MASK

Do I really need to wear mask?

My personal suggestion is: YES, you should definitely wear a mask in public.
I know there are many experts said that you don’t need to wear mask if you and the people around you are health.(WHO: Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) advice for the public: When and how to use masks https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/advice-for-public/when-and-how-to-use-masks)

But the big problem is that: the Coronavirus has an 7 to 14 days incubation period, and a person who already got the virus may not have any symptoms but still can spread the virus to others.
So how can we tell if ourself or other people has already got the Coronavirus if there is no symptoms? I don’t think we can ,so what we can do is to protect our self and others by wearing mask.

How to choose mask?

There are many kind of mask in the market now, but which kind works for us? We will break it down for you.
Surgical masks or N95 mask?
It’s a very sample fact that N95 mask will be more protective than a surgical mask for sure, but one reason why we should still choose a regular surgical mask is that for most people who won’t deal with a lot of people like some public service staff or doctors who need to take care of 2019-nCoV infection patients, you don’t need to wear N95 mask, and let’s save it for the people who really need it.

2. Then, How to know if you have Coronavirus Symptoms: Thermometer

Do I have Coronavirus Symptoms?

Coronavirus has many Symptoms, some Symptoms like the regular flu like coughing, but some Symptoms is not like flu at all like diarrhea. But the most common Symptoms, which has been seen as one of the most important signal is fever.
Once your body temperature goes up to 37.3°C, you should call your doctor. So it’s essential to have thermometer in your house during this special time. And if you have multiple family member, I do suggest you prepare an no touch forehead thermometer to avoid cross infection.

3. What if you do have the Symptoms but can not test in time and been ask to Self-Quarantine , how to monitor your health: Oximeter

For people who do not know what Pulse oximetry is, Pulse oximetry is a noninvasive and painless test that measures your oxygen saturation level, how much oxygen is present in your blood and how well it is transported to the extremities.
Why oxygen saturation level is important for Coronavirus?
For example, if you have fever at home, but not major discomfort and you can not get the test or go to the hospital, how to monitor your health? Oximeter is very helpful for this case, because one of the sighs that means the patients is getting worse is the oxygen saturation going low.

What I should know before purchasing Oximeter? What is a normal reading on an oximeter? What level of oxygen is dangerous?

Normal: A normal ABG oxygen level for healthy lungs falls between 80 and 100 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg). If a pulse ox measured your blood oxygen level (SpO2), a normal reading is typically between 95 and 100 percent.

However, in COPD or other lung diseases, these ranges may not apply. Your doctor will let you know what’s normal for your specific condition. For example, it isn’t uncommon for people with severe COPD to maintain their pulse ox levels (SpO2) between 88 to 92 percentTrusted Source.

Below normal: A below-normal blood oxygen level is called hypoxemia. Hypoxemia is often cause for concern. The lower the oxygen level, the more severe the hypoxemia. This can lead to complications in body tissue and organs.

Normally, a PaO2 reading below 80 mm Hg or a pulse ox (SpO2) below 95 percent is considered low. It’s important to know what’s normal for you, especially if you have a chronic lung condition.

Your doctor can provide recommendations as to what ranges of oxygen levels are acceptable for you.
