Breathing Treatments, maintaine the equipment safely
Your pediatrician says ,
"he is having a problem breathing. You need a neutralizer..."
Your stressed out of your mind as your baby is labored in his breathing.
So you do the treatment after gaining the equipment.
Unfortunately more often than not it has been neglected as to how to care for the appliance properly.
So why would you think any different than to wash it out and it is clean , safe and done.
NOPE!
Soap leaves a residue that when the next treatment is given will vaporize right into the already compromised lung.
Water is water ,
NOPE!
Water is a substance full of many other microscopic substances.
Reverse Osmosis, or distilled water is clean water. Free (for a greater part) of the chlorine and other misc. things that vaporize and enter the lungs at the next treatment.
Vinegar is acidic (3-4 tablespoons) , it with
R/O water soak kills the bacteria (if it is an infection) from saliva, infection or not, so it will not just be reentered into the lungs at the next treatment.
Rinse well with r/o water and then air dry on a towel.
It is important that it is dry for the next treatment, otherwise water vaporizes into the lung and can cause pneumonia.
Dash Hawk and I both have asthma.
He has a breathing treatment EVERY night.
Be safe.
