Hi again Lisa, Here's some additional info on nebulizing. The link to it is here http://www.aeromask.com/
Trem June 29, 1993 Equine AeroMask Trudell Medical International 725 Third St. London, ON N5V 5G4 Dear Trudell Medical International, Thank you very much for your gift of the AeroMask* Equine System (ES). We have found it to be superior to any other mask that we have used. When we paired with a recently donated ultrasonic aerosol nebulizer, it has provided a valuable tool in treating the lower airways of horses. Shortly after we received the mask, we had a tragic rash of intentional barn fires in our area. Though many horses either died or were euthanatized as a result, one horse was presented to us for treatment suffering form severe smoke inhalation injury. Using the AeroMask* ES as part of our therapy, this horse was saved and is now back in training. The most remarkable part of this case was how well the mask was tolerated by the horse - he virtually put it on himself when it was time for more medication. We have since used it for bronchodilator challenges and it has performed equally as well. The horses tolerate the mask without hesitation, and its design allows for minimal leakage of air. We have started recommending the AeroMask* ES to referring veterinarians, who express an interest in such a product, as we have been very happy with its performance. We feel that there is ample indication for the use of a mask and aerosol nebulizer in foals and wenalins to treat respiratory disease. We encourage you to design and build smaller versions of these masks as we feel that they would be quite useful. Congratulations on a fine product!
