Introduction

The Lamira

Nebulizer System (Lamira) is a battery operated

electronic nebulizer, which vibrates and forces liquid ARIKAYCE

through thousands of small holes to form an aerosol mist for

inhalation.

These Instructions for Use contain information and safety

precautions for the Lamira nebulizer that is made just for the

medicine ARIKAYCE

(amikacin liposome inhalation

suspension). Do not use any other medicine in the Lamira

nebulizer.

Before using your Lamira nebulizer, read and understand all the

Instructions for Use and save them for future reference. If you do

not understand any part of these directions, contact the Arikares®

Support Program at 1-833-ARIKARE (1-833-274-5273) before

using the Lamira nebulizer.

To reduce the risk of infection, illness, or injury from

contamination or improper use, it is important to complete

the following 2 steps:

1) Before first use, rinse and clean the Handset including

the Aerosol Head. Moving forward, rinse and clean the

Handset including the Aerosol Head right after each use

(see Section F). Do not wash the Controller, Connection

Cord, or A/C Power Supply. Use clear liquid soap made for

washing dishes to clean the Handset including the Aerosol

Head. Do not use liquid dish soaps that are white or

antibacterial liquid dish soaps because these may contain

additives harmful to the Aerosol Head.

2) Before first use, disinfect the Handset including the

Aerosol Head. Moving forward, disinfect the Handset

including the Aerosol Head after every use (see Section

G).

Take special note of all safety precautions marked Danger and

Warning.

Indications for use

Limited by Federal Law for use only with ARIKAYCE.

Safety Precautions

Read all dangers and warnings before using.

To reduce the risk of fatal injury from electrocution:

• Do not place or store the Lamira Nebulizer System near water or

other liquid such as bathtub or sink. Do not place or drop into

water or other liquid. Do not use while bathing.

• Do not reach for the Lamira Nebulizer System if it has fallen into

water or other liquid. Unplug right away. Pick up the Lamira only

after it has been unplugged.

To reduce the risk of serious injury:

• The Lamira Nebulizer Handset (Handset) is for single patient use.

Do not share your Handset with other people.

• The Handset is made just for ARIKAYCE. Never use other

medicine in the Handset. Using other medicine in the Lamira

nebulizer can result in severe injury or death.

• Read, understand and follow all warnings and instructions in these

Instructions for Use before using the Lamira nebulizer.

• To reduce the risk of fire, burns and damage or malfunction of the

Controller:

 Do not overload wall outlets or use extension cords.

 Keep all electrical cords away from heated surfaces.

 Do not spray liquids onto the housing of the Controller

(Controller). (See Section C: Getting Started) Liquid may cause

damage to the electrical parts and could lead to a malfunction. If

liquids enter the Controller, contact the Arikares Support

Program at 1-833-ARIKARE (1-833-274-5273).

 Do not insert any object into any opening on the Lamira.

 Do not operate where oxygen is being given in a closed

environment such as an oxygen tent.

• Always unplug the Lamira right after using and before cleaning.

• Before use, check your Lamira for proper assembly. All parts must

be connected and firmly in place. Use of an improperly assembled

Lamira could decrease or stop the effectiveness of your treatment.

• Use only A/C power supply and accessories that are made for the

Lamira. Use of unapproved A/C power supply or accessories can

lead to improper administration, injury, leading to damage to the

Controller.

• Never substitute the Handset for any other eFlow® Technology

Handset such as Altera®, eRapid® or any other eFlow®. Never use

the Lamira Aerosol Head (Aerosol Head) in any other eFlow®

Technology Handset. This Aerosol Head has unique performance

characteristics for ARIKAYCE.

• Never operate the Controller if it is improperly or incompletely

assembled or damaged. See Section K: Troubleshooting for more

information about alerts that appear when the Lamira is improperly

assembled or might be damaged.

• Never operate the Lamira if:

 It has damaged cords or plugs,

 it is not working properly,

 it has been dropped or damaged,

 the Controller has been exposed to liquids

• To reduce the risk of infection, illness, or injury from contamination,

clean and dry all parts of the Handset after each use. Follow the

instructions in Section E to maintain and clean the Lamira.

• Cleaning the Handset properly will help prevent the Aerosol Head

from clogging. Replace the Aerosol Head with a new one after 7

uses. Lamira Handset is to be used for 28 days. If the Aerosol

Head becomes clogged, the aerosol mist will be reduced, which may

increase your inhalation time of therapy. If clogging occurs, use the

instructions in Section F to clean the Aerosol Head.

• Cleaning the Handset and Aerosol Head only removes the medicine

and saliva. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal illness caused by

contamination of the Handset, you must also disinfect the Handset

and Aerosol Head after every cleaning. See Section G for

disinfection instructions.

• The Lamira contains small parts that may become a choking hazard

to small children. The Lamira Connection Cord (Connection Cord)

also may become a strangulation hazard.

• Do not allow pets, for example dogs or rodents, near the cables.

• Keep the Lamira out of reach of children.

• Keep the Handset level when in use. Excessive tilting can cause the

Controller to shut off leaving unused ARIKAYCE in the Medication

Reservoir and resulting in incomplete dosing.

• Closely supervise use when the Lamira is used near children or the

physically or mentally impaired.

• Do not use your Lamira while driving or in any situation which takes

away your full attention.

• If the Lamira has been damaged or is not operating properly, contact

the Arikares Support Program at 1-833-ARIKARE (1-833-274-5273).

• Do not take the Controller apart at any time. There are no user

serviceable parts inside the Controller. Contact the Arikares Support

Program at 1-833-ARIKARE (1-833-274-5273) for all Controller

service needs.

• Do not modify this equipment without authorization from the

manufacturer.

• Do not use the device in areas exposed to elevated electromagnetic

or electrical radiation such as a MRI scanner or high frequency

surgical equipment.

• Do not place near other medical devices during operation unless

both devices are monitored constantly to make sure both are

operating properly.

• Do not use within 12 inches (30 cm) of portable wireless

communication devices such as cell phones or antenna cables or

external antennas.

• Do not use near airplane or train control systems. Do not use aboard

aircraft.

• Do not use the nebulizer near anti-theft systems and Radio

Frequency Identification (RFID) readers, which are used in a wide

variety of settings, including stores, libraries, and hospitals. Do not

power on the nebulizer when passing through security screening

or theft protection (RFID) systems at entrances or exits of stores,

libraries or hospitals. Note that some entrance and exit security

systems are not visible.

Using Batteries or the A/C Power Supply

The Lamira is made to be used with “AA” batteries or with the A/C

Power Supply.

Using Batteries: Four (4) high quality “AA” batteries should

provide 2 hours of total use.

Step D1: Open the Battery Door on the Controller by placing

your thumb on the tab of the Battery Door and firmly

pulling the tab to open the Door (D-1).

Step D2: Load the Batteries. Each Battery Chamber has a

small figure that shows the proper position of each

battery (D-2). Using the battery “tips” as guides and

starting left-to-right for each row, insert the batteries:

Tip Out, Tip In, Tip Out, Tip In.

Close the Battery Door. To close the Battery Door,

push it closed until you hear it “click” into place.

NOTE: Rechargeable and Disposable Batteries have

differences in storage life and output. If you plan to

store the Controller for more than 30 days, it is

recommended to remove the batteries to reduce the

risk of battery leakage.

Using the A/C Power Supply: The A/C Power Supply will

automatically adjust to the incoming voltage and will power the

Controller with or without installed batteries. It can be used

worldwide, but requires “Plug Converters” for use outside the

USA.

Step D3: Plug the A/C Power Supply into the Controller. To

connect the A/C Power Supply to the Controller, place

the Controller on a clean, flat, stable surface. The plug

inlet port is located on the underside of the gray

Battery Door. Push the round end of the A/C Power

Supply plug into the plug inlet port (D-3). Do not try to

insert the A/C Power Supply into the front of the

Controller.

Step D4: Plug the A/C Power Supply into the wall outlet.

Note that the A/C Power Supply will not charge the

batteries in the Controller.

If you choose not to use the A/C Power Supply, you should

have an extra battery set with you at all times.

should automatically shut off shortly after your treatment is

complete or after 20 minutes. If the Lamira turns off after

20 minutes, check the Medication Reservoir. If it is empty,

you have received your full dose

QUESTION 2: How much ARIKAYCE should be left in

the Medication Reservoir at the end of my

treatment?

Answer: Only a drop of ARIKAYCE should remain in the

Medication Reservoir. If more than a drop remains, start

the Controller and complete your dose. Then clean the

Aerosol Head (Section F). If after proper cleaning, more

than a drop remains in the Medication Reservoir, contact

the Arikares Support Program at 1-833-ARIKARE (1-833-

274-5273).

QUESTION 3: When I turn on my Nebulizer, nothing

happens. There does not seem to be any power.

Answer: If you are using batteries, use the figures in each

Battery Compartment to check that the batteries are

inserted correctly. If the batteries are positioned properly,

check to see if the light is blinking on the Controller

signaling low battery power. If it is, replace the batteries or

use the A/C Power Supply.

Answer: If you are using the A/C Power Supply, check

the connection to be sure it is firmly connected to the

Power Supply Port located underneath the Battery

Compartment.

Be sure that the A/C Power Supply is plugged into a

working wall outlet.

QUESTION 4: Sometimes I have trouble removing the

Medication Cap at the end of my therapy session.

Answer: A vacuum has formed in the Medication

Reservoir. Remove the Connection Cord, open the

Handset and carefully remove the Aerosol Head. The

Medication Cap will then be easier to remove.

QUESTION 5: What if no mist is coming out of your

Handset?

Answer: First, make sure ARIKAYCE is at room

temperature before use. If ARIKAYCE is not at room

temperature, your nebulizer may not mist immediately.

Secondly, check that the Controller has power and is not

paused. Thirdly, make sure the Connection Cord is

correctly attached. Fourthly, check to be sure that your

Handset has been assembled properly (Section H) and

that the Handset is level throughout your treatment.

Lastly, check to be sure that the ARIKAYCE is in the

Medication Reservoir. If you are still having a problem,

contact the Arikares Support Program at 1-833-ARIKARE

(1-833-274-5273).

QUESTION 6: What if liquid is leaking from my Handset

during my treatment?

Answer: To prevent leaks, be sure (1) the Blue Valve is

properly attached to the Aerosol Chamber (valve flaps not

bent) (Fig H-4a), (2) the Aerosol Head is inserted

correctly, (3) the Medication Cap is screwed on fully, and

(4) the Medication Reservoir and Aerosol Chamber are

closed properly and snapped together (no gaps along the

blue valve edge)(H-6).

Answer: It is normal to have some liquid collect in the

Aerosol Chamber and some liquid may leak from the

mouthpiece. Try to hold the Handset level so that liquid

does not pour out of the Mouthpiece.

QUESTION 7: What if my Controller shuts off before my

treatment begins, or does not restart?

Answer: Low voltage. Replace the batteries or use

the A/C Power Supply. Press the On/Off button to

continue your treatment.

Answer: Your Handset was tilted above 45°. Hold

your Handset level and press the On/Off button to

continue your treatment.

Answer: ARIKAYCE is cold. Allow the ARIKAYCE to

warm to room temperature and then press the On/Off

button to continue your treatment.

Answer: Lost power while using the A/C Power

Supply. It is recommended to keep batteries inserted in

the device as backup in case power is interrupted while

using the A/C Power Supply. Doing so can help avoid

treatment disruption.

QUESTION 8: What if my Controller does not shut off at the

end of my treatment?

Answer: Your Controller may take up to 60 seconds to

shut off after you complete your dose. If you wish to stop

your Controller earlier, press the On/Off button.

Answer: Disconnect the A/C Power Supply from the

Controller and remove the batteries. Then, reinsert the

Batteries following the procedure in Section D.

Answer: If this situation continues 3 or 4 times, contact

the Arikares Support Program at 1-833-ARIKARE (1-

833-274-5273).

QUESTION 9: How long will a new set of batteries last?

Answer: A new set of batteries should provide 2 hours

of total use.

Answer: Consider using rechargeable batteries.

QUESTION 10: What if something arrives damaged?

Answer: Contact the Arikares Support Program at 1-833-

ARIKARE (1-833-274-5273).
