traveling overseas with an adapter for the portable Pari Trek Nebulize

I wonder if Pari (a German company) makes a universal power supply (100-240V) ? If so, then after that you need a European plug adapter.

Personally, I would not go 3 weeks without some type of strategy for airway clearance. For example, I could not forgo hypertonic saline even for a day. I breathe better and cough less after I clear my lungs so skipping that would be detrimental to me. But you might be different. Perhaps you don't produce daily sputum. Bronchiectasis is a heterogeneous disease, so our daily experiences are different. You could experiment before your trip to see if skipping your routine is tolerable.

BTW, my pulmonologist has also made comments about forgoing the twice a day hypertonic saline and airway clearance. He said as long as I don't cough up stuff in between sessions I can skip here and there. To me, that tempts fate. I work hard to prevent both the progression of bronchiectasis and the persistence of bacteria that tend to settle in our lungs.

I agree with you. I don't want to take the chance either.

I don't have MAC and rarely bring up sputum and that probably impacted the answer I got. My doc and I decided my inhalers followed by Acapella (or Aerobika-he thinks they're equivalent) and huff coughs would be ok. It was a "gentle" hiking trip and that helps, too, if you'll be active.
My bigger issue there in first small villages was accessing distilled water for nasal rinsing if that's an issue.

Thank you. I don't have MAC either and rarely bring up sputum, but I think I will take a small portable inhaler and follow it up with the Aerobika. I will be staying in cities in Italy so I'm sure I can find distilled water in the hotels.

When I travel, I carry aerosol sterile saline for rinsing sinuses if needed. There are a number of them available.

I bring my Parí Trek s on overseas vacations. The voltage is good for European (240) electric so you only need a plug adapter. I got a new one, it was recommended by Wirecutter. Can’t remember the name but any good adapter will work.

I would also like to say I have a pulmonologist who is a specialist in bronchiectasis who I like very much. However I am of the opinion that those of us who have BE know more about airway clearance than the doctors do. I get more information from support groups like this and my PT breathing specialist than I do from the pulmo. Go with your gut and what you have learned along the way.

Have you tried the mesh nebulizer? It is a small handheld nebulizer that runs on a rechargeable battery. I changed this months ago and got rid of my bulky, noisy, time consuming small compressor. I am amazed at how efficient it is and so much easier to use and carry in my luggage.

I have one and plan to take it with me on my trip.

I just returned from a 3 week trip to Italy. I have a Pari Trek nebulizer and it worked fine with a plug adapter. I also have the attachable portable battery and also used that sometimes. If you bring a portable LED battery you must pack it in a carry-on bag, but you can pack the nebulizer in a checked bag.
