υγραντήρας φυσαλίδων ή (υγραντήρας) διάχυσης


Υγραντήρας διάχυσης(υγραντήρας με οδηγό φυσαλίδων).
The diffusion head humidifier is usually used for people who are getting oxygen. This type of humidifier looks like a glass (or plastic) jar with water in it. The lid of the jar has a tube attached to a control on the oxygen tank. Another tube is attached to the nasal prongs in your nose or your oxygen mask. Using this type of humidifier may keep your nose from getting dry.

Peer comment(s):

agree Andras Mohay (X) : Ναι για «φυσαλίδων» και «με ακροστόμιο διάχυσης». Ή μήπως και «ανάβλυσης»; [Βλ. υγρό (...) συνεχώς υπεροξυγονωμένο (...) με αναβλύζον οξυγόνο www.encephalos.gr/full/41-2-02g.htm] - δηλ. „bubble through oxygen”?-Τι ενυδρείο; Ολόφτυστος αργιλές είναι!
