Due to the fact that the virtual Valve Techology technology was used during the creation of such a convenient device as the Omron S-24 nebulizer, it was possible to save a lot of the treatment solution, which, even with a small volume of the drug container( 7 ml),a full-fledged procedure that gives the best therapeutic effect.
The finely divided solution makes this device effective even in the treatment of diseases where the lower respiratory tract is affected. But here in this device there are small restrictions on the use of drugs, so it is not recommended to use oils and broths with visible particles.
When is it recommended to use a nebulizer?
The "Omron S-24" inhaler is used to treat colds and infectious pathologies of the upper and lower respiratory tract, including:
- rhinitis;
- laryngitis;
- sinusitis;
- pharyngitis;
- cystic fibrosis;
- tracheitis;
- pneumonia;
- is a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease;
- bronchitis.
In addition, the inhaler is also recommended for the prevention of various kinds of chronic ailments, including:
- bronchial asthma;
- tuberculosis;
- is an allergy.
As a result of the application of the compressor inhaler, the respiratory tract is moistened, which makes it easier to get out the sputum and the general condition of the patient.
Principle of operation of the nebulizer
The nebulizer "Omron S-24" is intended not simply to irrigate the patient's throat with a medicine, but also to turn the drug into a fine aerosol that penetrates into the lower respiratory tract where the conventional inhaler does not reach. But so far the creators of this unique device have not been able to solve one of the most important problems - the direct dependence of the particle size of the aerosol and the limitations in the use of certain preparations.
And the whole point is that the smaller the particle of the drug, the deeper it will penetrate into the organ and thereby significantly increase the effect of therapy. But oil-based medications can not turn into such a suspension, which is why the Omron C-24 inhaler, the instruction confirms this, it is necessary to pour the preparations on a water basis.
Advantages of nebulizer
According to many doctors and parents, it is the compressor inhaler that copes with serious respiratory diseases. Thanks to its use, it is possible to cure pathology in short periods without the use of serious medicines, even in the youngest children. The device is very convenient and compact, and besides not all its advantages, there are others:
- Low noise level during operation. The noise level of the inhaler is approximately equal to 40 dB, which is why very few of the household will be angry and annoyed by annoying buzz. An almost silent device will not scare small children.
- The nebulizer can easily be carried. Due to the fact that the device weighs only 270 grams, it can easily be taken with you to any trip or trip. For such cases, a convenient bag is included.

- Economical application at high enough efficiency of therapy. Due to the fact that the manufacturer has created a device in which the shape of the mouthpiece has a unique design, the loss of the drug during the procedure is minimized. Thus, it was possible to increase the intake of aerosol during inspiration and to reduce its loss upon exhalation. In addition, the absence of small elements significantly saves processing time, lowers the cost of purchasing drugs and simplifies the operation of the device.
- Optimal airflow for children, debilitated patients and the elderly.

Instead of concluding
Summing up, it is possible to say for sure that a nebulizer "Omron S-24" should be in every house where a child often suffers or there are elderly people who are very hard to swallow tablets. Thanks to this device, it is possible to carry out prophylaxis for all family members when the epidemic begins, and thus to protect themselves from infection.
