Pneumonia is an inflammation of the lungs which causes the air sacs to be filled with pus or fluid. Pneumonia is caused by either a bacterial, viral, or fungal infection.

I would have no reservations about recommending this system to anyone, especially pediatric patients and those patients who are very active but still want to take their breathing treatments via a nebulizer.
