Inhale and exhale deeply: TOP 5 nebulizers

Microlife Corporation, a leading leader in the field of medical diagnostic equipment, also manufactures medical products with great success. The hero of the review was the compressor stationary nebulizer Microlife NEB 200B.

Like all products of the brand, the model is perfectly built, has a stylish and compact body made of white plastic that is pleasant to the touch. All components are perfectly fitted and Swiss quality is immediately noted at the first acquaintance with the device.

It will not be superfluous to say about compactness, which allows you to place the inhaler in a secluded corner for daily use or take it with you on a trip, which is especially important when there are small children. Facilitates transportation and the presence of a special carrying case. However, going on a long journey, it must be borne in mind that the device only works from the network.

This model is suitable for all family members, for any need, as the kit includes an adult and children's masks, an air tube, nose and mouth nozzles, and five replaceable air filters. It is also convenient to take care of the device, since all consumables are easy to clean and are designed for any kind of disinfection.

You can use the nebulizer with all drugs intended for this type of inhalation (the volume of drugs is from 2 ml to 8 ml), including corticosteroids.

"Home Doctor" has a spray rate of 0.4 ml / min and an air flow of 15 l / min, which is an excellent indicator and allows you to use quick-acting drugs more efficiently.

Among the additional advantages, it is worth highlighting quiet operation in comparison with other representatives of the class (noise level 52 dB).

An inexpensive model from the well-known A&D brand will be an excellent assistant in the fight against respiratory diseases and other respiratory ailments.

Appearance and assembly are not satisfactory, everything is harmonious, simple and of high quality. You can start using it without looking at the instructions, since the control is carried out with one button, and preparing the device for work takes a couple of minutes. Light weight (1200 g) of the device and modest dimensions (150x140x90 mm) will allow you to take it with you on a trip.

The kit contains everything you need for comfortable use by the whole family: two masks of different sizes, a mouthpiece, connecting tubes and a medicine cup, as well as a very convenient carrying case. Unfortunately, there is no nozzle for the nose, so for the treatment of rhinitis in adults, it makes sense to use a children's mask for more accurate air flow.

Treating young children with a nosepiece reduces the effectiveness of therapy, as the child reflexively begins to breathe through his mouth.

The size of the drug reservoir is 6 ml, this is a very modest indicator, but it will be enough for a single inhalation up to 10 minutes.

Summing up, we can say that this model will be an excellent helper for families whose needs for inhalation are the prevention and treatment of respiratory diseases or seasonal colds. If your needs are caused by a professional field of activity or serious chronic diseases, it makes sense to consider models of a higher class.

Little Doctor LD-211C is a high-quality and compact assistant that guards your health during the cold season and beyond. For younger users, there is a children's design in yellow with a mouse-doctor on the case.

At the first acquaintance, attention is attracted by the compactness of the case, which allows you to take the device with you. For operation on the road, battery operation is provided, but it’s worth mentioning right away that even new expensive batteries will last for a maximum of 2-3 inhalations. An indisputable advantage is the presence of a complete plastic container in which you can store both nebulizer components and frequently used medicines.

The set includes: two masks (for adults and children), five air filters and three sprayers (for the lower respiratory tract, universal for all departments, for the upper respiratory tract). The presence of different sprayers is a useful thing, especially for children's inhalations, as they allow you to influence the affected area without affecting or overloading healthy organs. For example, in the case of laryngitis or sinusitis, as well as SARS, use an upper respiratory nebulizer.

Despite the external miniaturization of the device, the volume of the built-in reservoir for medicines is 10 ml, which is a very good indicator. Large capacity will allow you to do inhalation without interruption for "refueling".

The maximum spray rate is 0.3 ml/min, which is quite enough to treat a wide range of diseases using drugs for various purposes.

And although the inhaler is more positioned as a child, its functional features ensure comfortable use by the whole family.

The Little Doctor LD-210C inhaler can rightfully be classified as a serious device, since its impressive dimensions (340x178x130 mm) and weight (2590 g) suggest using the model in normal mode and only from the mains.

When unpacking, a rich model set is immediately noted: three different atomizers, two masks (for children and adults), two nozzles for noses of different sizes, an inhalation mouthpiece, a long tube (2 meters), an angle holder, spare filters (5 pieces) and two fuses. The model also has a convenient compartment for accessories. Such an assortment will allow each family member to comfortably use the device for any needs.

The main feature is the ability to create different types of aerosols with the required particle size, choosing a sprayer designed to treat a specific section of the respiratory system. Thus, the particle size can be obtained from 3.5 to 5.0 µm.

For the efficiency of use and optimization of drug consumption, the manufacturer has carefully thought out design features that allow using the drug filled into the tank to zero. By the way, the size of the drug reservoir is 10 ml, which is a very good indicator.

The model is compatible with many inhaled solutions, including corticosteroid drugs, making it suitable for people with serious chronic conditions.

The maximum continuous operation time is 20 minutes and this is enough even for maintenance inhalations on non-potent drugs. After prolonged operation, the device must be allowed to rest for 40 minutes before restarting.

The high-performance inhaler from the market leader Omron will appeal to users not only with high-quality assembly and packaging, but also with advanced technologies.

In addition to the inhaler itself, the kit includes two masks of different sizes (for children and adults), a nose nozzle, a mouth nozzle, a long tube and a set of replaceable filters (5 pieces). All components are suitable for any type of disinfection and are made of high quality materials.

The company's developers have created and patented an innovative technology for their products - virtual valve technology (Virtual Valve Technology - VVT). Its essence lies in the special design of the nebulizer chamber and the presence of holes on the mouthpiece, allowing you to abandon the classic silicone inhalation and exhalation valves.

This development makes it possible to create more comfortable inhalation conditions: eliminate the loss or possibility of deformation of silicone valves, reduce the consumption of drugs, reduce the residual volume of the drug, use a wide range of inhalation mixtures, and control the inhalation process more optimally.

As for the control, it is organized with a single button, and the frequency of the respirable fraction is more than 74%, which ensures that the drug enters the respiratory system quickly.

The volume of the container for medicines is not the largest - 7 ml, but this is quite enough even for inhalations of a narrow focus.
