The FiltaNeb™ features a non-vented mask based upon the Intersurgical EcoLite™ mask, with a filter on the exhalation gas pathway. The mask seal is coloured green to distinguish this non-vented mask from standard aerosol masks. To ensure that the best possible fit can be achieved, the mask kit includes an additional head strap.
The system provides >95% reduction of particulates into the environment, helping to minimise potentially infected exhaled gases and emissions escaping during nebulisation therapy, reducing the risk to healthcare professionals.
