Intended User

• Patient and/or caregiver under the direction of legally certified medical experts, such as doctor, nurse and therapist or qualified medical experts for home treatment.
• The user should also be capable of understanding the general operation of DuoBaby and the content of this instruction manual.

Intended Patients

Persons from the age of 1 month who suffer from upper airway conditions (such as blocked nose, cold, allergies) and/or lower respiratory conditions (such as asthma, bronchitis, bronchiolitis).

Environment

This product is intended for use in a general household.

Durable period

Durable periods are as follows, provided the product is used to nebulize 3 times a day for 10 minutes each time at room temperature (23°C). The durable period may vary depending on usage and environment.

Precautions for use

Warnings and caution described in the instruction manual should be observed

Thank you for purchasing the Omron DuoBaby. This product was developed in conjunction with respiratory therapists for the successful treatment of asthma, chronic bronchitis, allergies, blocked nose, and other respiratory disorders. This is a medical device. Operate the device only as instructed by your doctor and/or respiratory therapist.

How the nebulizer kit works

The medication that is pumped up through the medication channel is mixed with compressed air which is generated by a compressor pump. The compressed air mixed with medication is turned into fine particles and sprayed when in contact with the baffle.

How the nasal aspirator kit works

The compressed air generated by the compressor pump, passing through a narrowing, thanks to the Venturi effect, creates a vacuum that sucks the mucus into the collection chamber.

• When treatment is completed, turn the power off and unplug the compressor from the power outlet.
• Clean and disinfect all (disassembled) parts according to the “Cleaning and daily disinfecting” section.

How to use Nasal Aspirator

Dry and very thick mucus inside the nose may be dissolved by saline solutions. After adding saline solution into each nostril of the baby’s nose to help loosen nasal secretions, wait a few minutes and then remove the mucus running out with a tissue. Only after removing the running mucus outside the nostrils, the nasal aspirator may be used.

1. Make sure that the power switch is in the off position.

2. Assemble the nasal aspirator. Make sure that the O-ring is properly attached. Refer to the drawing “Nasal Aspirator’. os

3. Plug the power plug into a power outlet.

4. Connect the air tube to the nasal aspirator and to the main unit, while twisting the air tube plugs slightly, push them firmly.

5. Keep your baby in a comfortable position and make sure that their head is lifted as shown in the figure to the right.

6. Tum the power switch to the on position. Place your index finger over the opening on the nasal aspirator, as shown on the figure to the right to begin aspiration.

**C aution:** Before using the nasal aspirator, try it on the hand to see if it sucks. When functioning properly, there must be NN, a slight suction from the nozzle. If air is exiting from the nozzle, do not continue using the aspirator. While using, the aspirator needs are in the upright position, with the finger opening on top (see the figure by above). This prevents the sucked mucus from entering parts other than the collection chamber.

7. Place the nozzle at the entrance of one of the nostrils of the baby. (do not insert inside the nostril). Use the aspirator for 3 seconds for 4 times per
   nostril.

8. When treatment is completed, turn the power off and unplug the compressor from the power outlet.

9. Disconnect the aspirator from the air tube and disassemble it into 3 parts as shown in “Know your unit”;  clean or disinfect according to the section below.

Cleaning and daily disinfecting

Cleaning Clean
the parts after each use to remove residual medication or mucus. This will prevent inefficient nebulization or aspiration and reduce the risk of infection. Do not use a brush or pin to clean.

•  Washable parts: Nebulizer kit, Baby Mask (PVC), Nasal Aspirator, Mouthpiece Wash them in warm water and mild, neutral detergent. Rinse them thoroughly with clean hot tap water, gently tap to remove excess water and allow to air dry in a clean place. It is advisable to replace the DuoBaby nebulizer kit or nasal aspirator after some 100 to 120 treatments or after about 20 boiling cycles.
• Non-washable parts: Compressor, Air Tube (PVC) Firstly, make sure that the power plug is unplugged from the power outlet. Wipe clean with a soft cloth, moistened with water or mild, neutral detergent. Air Filter Do not wash or clean the air filter. Refer to the “Changing the air filter’ section.

Disinfecting

Always disinfect the parts after the last treatment of the day. If the parts are heavily stained, replace them with new ones. To select a method for disinfection, refer to the table below.
