The water in the nebulizer of respirators is a potential source of infection for patients receiving artificial respiration. Interposition of a special equipment that will produce ozone-free ultraviolet radiation will prevent infection of the patient by the inspired humidified air, even if the bacterial count in the nebulizer fluid is very high. Interposition of the same equipment on the expiratory side is also recommended to minimize the risk of infection of the environment by bacteria in the expired air.
呼吸器雾化器中的水是接受人工呼吸患者的潜在感染源。插入一种能产生无臭氧紫外线辐射的特殊设备，即使雾化器液体中的细菌数量非常高，也能防止患者因吸入的湿化空气而感染。建议在呼气侧也插入同样的设备，以尽量减少呼出空气中的细菌对环境造成感染的风险。
