InnoSpire Go FAQ's for customers
Technology
Q. What is vibrating mesh technology and how does it work?
A. InnoSpire Go contains a mesh with approximately 1,000 microscopic holes in it. The mesh vibrates
and the liquid medicine is drawn through these holes and turned into a fine mist, creating the
aerosol.
Q. How is the InnoSpire Go different to the Aeroneb Go?
A. Both devices work in a similar way, using vibrating mesh technology, but the InnoSpire Go works
faster, which means treatment times are shorter, typically 4 minutes*. It has a built in battery for
improved convenience, and less parts which makes cleaning easier.
* 2.5ml salbutamol.
Q. Is InnoSpire Go an ultrasonic nebulizer?
A. No. Traditional ultrasonic nebulizers use a different technology to create the aerosol.
Q. How is InnoSpire Go different from a jet compressor/piston nebulizer?
A. InnoSpire Go uses a different technology that doesn't require the use of a motor. This means it's
smaller, lighter, and virtually silent.
Use

A. No. InnoSpire Go is intended for single patient use only.

A. InnoSpire Go has been tested and is compliant to the DO-160F standard to show it meets safety
standards to use on an airplane. However, each individual airline will have their own policies with
regards to the use of electronic equipment and you should therefore check with the airline prior to
travel if you need to use your equipment during a flight.

A. Yes. InnoSpire Go is suitable for children under adult supervision.
Q. Can I use my InnoSpire Go lying down?
