such as a patient's age, condition, breathing pattern, and
medication. The Vios

for humidification or prolonged treatments (for example,
over 35 minutes at one time). It is possible with prolonged
treatments that the tubing may get warm and disconnect
from the Vios

®
consecutive (back to back) treatments, resulting in the use
of your Vios
for longer than 35 minutes at a time, please
