Why choose a Pari Nebuliser?

In the UK most of you are familiar with one or two of the nebuliser companies we list. The Portaneb has been used by many NHS trusts for years and is now known as the Innospire Deluxe. The AC2000 has enjoyed a similar history and despite both manufacturers having changed their company name over the years their flagship product name has remained the same. Omron nebulisers, though initially known to you through their widely used blood pressure machines, are now extremely popular and all three companies operate internationally and produce a product range for you to use at home and to suit all your needs.

So who are Pari?
Well for some of you their name is extremely familiar, you have been trusting their nebulisers to help you breath freely and maintain your quality of life for years, but we do occasionally get asked "Pari who?"

Pocket Rocket is about to take off!

I love the nickname for such a wonderful piece of equipment. The Omron MicroAir is as vital a thing to carry as perhaps my mobile phone or iPod. It is convenient, simple and if I didn't have my "Pocket Rocket" I would never get to see the outside world!

Omron MicroAir "the pocket rocket"

Portable Nebulisers for out and about

Hopefully the worst of the cold weather will soon be behind us and we can all be look forward to getting out and about. If your adventures need a nebuliser to help you on your way, there are lots to choose from on our web site. Below is a personal story from Phil Johnson, who is the Chairman of the "20-20Voice" Cancer Appeal It highlights exactly why they can be so beneficial but also comes with an word of caution.

Hi there folks, Well, as many of you probably know I bought one of the Omron MicroAir U22 portable nebulisers as I am one of those people that suddenly get 'caught short' when out and about! No, not due to the call of nature but due to shortness of breath which can be embarrassing when in company and downright frightening at any time. Hence I bought a couple of these handy little gizmo's, one for myself and one for any "20-20 Voice" Cancer Appeal members that might need to take one on holiday for 'out and about' days.

I've used mine on several occasions but I'll give you a perfect example of the uses for these little pocket nebulisers:-

Last week we went out for a family meal to celebrate my wife's birthday and we took the "Pocket Rocket" with us, just as well as the restaurant was supremely busy, thus food arrivals somewhat slow. But despite that we had a good old natter/catch up and once the starters had been dispensed with the 'mains' quickly followed. Granted, i had to go outside for some fresh air (I call it my 'non fag-break') while others enjoyed their cigarettes as the restaurant started to feel 'stuffy' to me. Now I know that all fellow 'larys' will understand what I mean by stuffy so I won't elaborate on that.

The party broke up about 10:15 and my wife and I agreed that 10 minutes on the "Pocket Rocket" in the car would be ideal before I drovehome. There we were, armed with nebules of salbutamol, Budesonide & Saline solutions, quickly rigged everything up and off we went - for 2 minutes! The batteries went dead. We looked at each other horrified, neither of us had thought to put in spare batteries 'just in case'; as  Del-boy would say, "What a pair of plonkers!"  And he would have been right too. As it happened the couple of minutes had done enough for me to drive the couple of miles home so all was sorted in the end but the point of my little note to you all out there is simple: even if you think it's the most obvious thing in the world, when you are out and and about with your own little "Pocket Rocket" check everything - especially that you have spare batteries! :-D 

I call my portable nebuliser the "Pocket Rocket" because of the power & speed it emits the much needed vapours!
