3 USE
All the steps described below must be carried out properly.
If the nebuliser is to be connected to a central medical gas supply system via a
PARI CENTRAL, the instructions for use of the PARI CENTRAL must be followed.
Do not use product components unless they have been thoroughly cleaned and dried. Wash
your hands thoroughly before every use. You must perform cleaning and disinfection before
using the device for the first time.
WARNING
Danger of acute respiratory distress when the nebuliser is operated using oxygen
When the nebuliser is used with the PARI CENTRAL O2, acute respiratory distress can
arise through an increased level of carbon dioxide in the blood.
COPD patients with exacerbation may develop acute respiratory distress as a result of
treatment which uses oxygen.
• The PARI CENTRAL O2 is no longer sold.
• If you use a PARI CENTRAL O2 which is still on the market, perform the treatment us-
ing oxygen only after consultation with, and under the supervision of, a professional.
