COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT THE MICROAIR
Q. Will the mesh break easily?
A. The mesh is like all small delicate parts that can be broken if not gently
handled. It is important that after cleaning the mesh that it be placed back
on the unit. This will protect the mesh from damage while the unit is not
being used. Be sure to replace the unit cover after use for added protection.
Q. How much medication is left at the end of treatment in
the medication cup?
A. There should only be a few drops of medication at remaining in the cup
after a treatment. Medication that remains in the cup is a result of the
method by which the unit operates that can not deliver all medication.
Q. After using the MicroAir there is some medication inside
the mouthpiece. Is this normal?
A. Yes. Up to .02 ml can remain in the mouthpiece from condensation that
results from the aerosol process.
Q. Should I take my treatment with the MicroAir set on
continuous flow or should I use the intermittent method?
A. Consult with your healthcare provider as to the type of delivery method
of your medication.
Q. When do I change the mesh?
A. The mesh is projected to last up to 6 months with recommended cleaning
and maintenance. However, if the mesh should break during use, you
must replace it.
Q. Under normal use, what changes will I see in the mesh
when it needs to be replaced?
A. The unit will start to "flood" the mesh during treatment and the aerosol
product will stop. IF cleaning procedures on page 11 do not correct the
flooding, the mesh cap should be replaced.
Reminder: Daily mesh cap cleaning is essential to keep your
Micro-Air working properly. See page 11 for mesh cap
cleaning instructions.
