Medical mist device
A nebuliser is a device that converts liquid medication into a fine mist for inhalation, used to treat asthma, COPD, and other respiratory conditions.
The patient breathes the medicated vapor through a mask or mouthpiece, delivering drugs directly to the lungs.
Also spelled nebulizer.
