KuraFlo Portable Mesh Nebuliser

The KuraFlo Portable Mesh Nebuliser is a compact, handheld nebuliser designed for inhalation therapy at home or while you're travelling. It converts compatible nebulising liquids into a fine mist that can be inhaled through a mouthpiece or mask, delivering the solution or prescribed medication your healthcare professional has recommended. It's a medical device that delivers a preparation — it doesn't decide which medicine, dose or schedule is right for you.

Built around vibrating mesh technology, this portable nebuliser is quiet in operation and light enough to slip into a bag, making it a practical option if you or your child need nebulisation support that isn't tied to one spot in the house. It runs on battery or USB power, and a USB cable is included, so you're set up to use it away from a plug point or top it up as needed. It's suitable for adults and children, with children using it only under close adult supervision.

How it works

• Vibrating mesh: The device uses ultrasonic vibrating mesh technology, pushing liquid through a mesh containing roughly 1,000 to 7,000 laser-drilled microscopic holes to create a fine, inhalable mist.
• Delivery interface: The mist is breathed in through a mouthpiece or an appropriately fitted mask, which you switch on once you're sitting upright and comfortable.
• Portable power: Dual battery and USB power options mean it isn't dependent on a wall socket — useful for travel, day trips, or keeping treatment going during load-shedding.

How to use it

Always follow the instructions supplied with the device and any dosing directions from your healthcare professional. As a general guide:

1. Wash and dry your hands.
2. Assemble the nebuliser according to the instruction manual.
3. Add the prescribed amount of compatible nebulising solution or medication to the reservoir.
4. Attach the appropriate mouthpiece or mask.
5. Sit upright in a comfortable position.
6. Switch on the device.
7. Breathe slowly and normally through the mouthpiece or mask.
8. Continue until the mist stops or the prescribed treatment is complete.
9. Switch off the device.
10. Disassemble and clean the relevant parts after use.

Cleaning and care

Clean the medicine reservoir, mask and mouthpiece after each use according to the manufacturer's instructions, and let all parts dry completely before storing. Don't immerse the main electronic unit in water. The mesh is delicate, so never clean it with sharp objects, brushes, pins or abrasive materials — a blocked or damaged mesh may reduce mist output. Store the device in a clean, dry place.

Best for

The KuraFlo Portable Mesh Nebuliser is a great option for parents and caregivers who:

• Have a prescribed nebulising solution or medication and need a portable way to deliver it
• Want a quiet, lightweight device that's easy to carry in a bag for travel and on-the-go use
• Would like the flexibility of both battery and USB power

It may not be the best fit if you:

• Need a robust, broadly compatible unit for frequent daily use, where a compressor system may suit better
• Have a medicine that isn't compatible with mesh nebulisation — always confirm compatibility with your healthcare professional first

Important safety information

Use only as directed, and only with compatible nebulising liquids. Use only solutions and medication recommended by a doctor, pharmacist, respiratory therapist or other qualified healthcare professional. Do not use oils, thick liquids, homemade mixtures or any solution not intended for nebuliser use, and do not alter prescribed medication doses. Do not share masks or mouthpieces unless they have been appropriately cleaned and disinfected, and keep small parts away from babies and young children.

Do not use the device if it is damaged, leaking, or producing inconsistent mist. Stop use and seek medical advice if treatment causes any unexpected reaction, such as worsening breathlessness, chest tightness, dizziness, palpitations, swelling or a rash. A nebuliser is not a substitute for emergency medical care — seek urgent help if breathing difficulty is severe. The KuraFlo Portable Mesh Nebuliser is a medical device intended to deliver compatible nebulising solutions and prescribed inhaled medication; it does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease on its own and should be used according to the manufacturer's instructions and professional medical advice.
