Invacare Select Repair

Background

The Invacare Select IRC 1705 nebulizer is a medical device that converts liquid into aerosol, and it is often used to administer medicine for sick individuals. A silicone mouthpiece or mask is used to inhale medication into the lungs to combat airway inflammation and relieve congestion. The nebulizer can be purchased for commercial or at-home use.

Identification

The medical company Invacare was founded in 1885 and specializes in creating medical tools and devices. They currently manufacture manual and powered wheelchairs and no longer focus on respiratory devices like nebulizers, meaning the IRC 1705 is no longer being produced. The product can be purchased from other medical device distributors, such as Local Med Supplies.com.

The device is black and rectangular-shaped, with a clear plastic tube that connects to a plastic mouthpiece. There is a switch on the top that allows users to turn the machine on and off. There is a picture of Invacare’s logo on the top of the machine for easy identification.
