Therapeutic agent nebulizer, benchtop

Definition

An assembly of devices intended to be used in the home and clinical to aerosolize medication/fluids, by non-heat-dependent means (i.e., not a vaporizer), for inhalation by a patient, typically to treat/manage a respiratory disorder [e.g., chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cystic fibrosis (CF)]. It includes an electrically-powered generator (ultrasonic and/or compressor jet type), a reservoir, and a nebulizing chamber where the nebulization of the medicine usually occurs. Disposable devices (e.g., tubing, mask, mouthpiece) are attached to the device for inhalation. It is designed to be placed on a benchtop/flat surface during use.
