Hi, I’m helping my dad find a more reliable nebulizer and am new to this forum. He has only been using a nebulizer for 2 weeks (1-3x/day) for both 7% saline and also Duoneb (0.5mg Ipratropium and 3mg Albuterol) and suddenly his brand new mesh nebulizer stopped producing mist and now drips out liquid. He’s 86 yrs old had a new aortic valve implanted on April 2nd using minimally invasive TAVR procedure since his valve opening had narrowed down from calcium buildup which prevented his oxygenated blood from fully getting pumped out to his body which contributed to shortness of breath (SOB). While in the hospital recovering from the TAVR procedure he struggled with getting mucus up from his esophagus and lungs so they treated him with Duoneb every 12 hours which helped tremy to loosen up his mucus which allowed him to cough it up and breathe better. He had never noticed any improvement using inhalers before so he stopped using them, but this was his first experience with a nebulizer and since it seemed to help, we got the best selling model on Amazon immediately which was only about $45 and doc prescribed him Duoneb for nebulizer. At the same time we ordered 7% saline from Amazon since I had read many testimonials from others online that said saline helped them with mucus extraction as well. While his SOB has improved since getting a new valve, he continues to battle with asbestosis (left lung only working at 50%) so he’s awaiting an initial appointment with a pulmonologist who’s well regarded here at Tampa General Hospital where he had TAVR done too. My folks are snowbirds from Michigan who live in St Pete about 5 months (late fall - early spring) and feel very blessed that they’ve been able be treated here at TGH since they seem extremely competent in both heart and lung transplants and all related heart/lung issues. After researching nebulizer feedback from others last night and more again this morning, I came across your blog where you had asked others here which brand/model nebulizer they like so we’re going to try the Omega tabletop model you decided to try, but I noticed you mentioned you use it with “aeroeclipse” and I’m not sure what that is. Could you please explain? Thank you initiating this blog and any assistance you can offer regarding this matter. Respectfully, Scott Steffes
