Tracheal Bronchitis

  1. A small or large Assisi Loop can be used to treat tracheal bronchitis in the pet depending on the size of the pet.  Dachshund- and Chihuahua-sized pets do best with small Assisi Loops.  Larger breeds need the larger Loop.  Positioning is extremely important for optimal effect.
  2. Position the pet lying down either flat on the ground or up on their elbows.
  3. The Assisi Loop can be placed on the side of the neck or around the neck.  If the Assisi Loop is on the side of the neck, the center of the Loop should be halfway between the ear and shoulder.  See Pictures
  4. Placing the Loop over the head treats a larger section of the trachea, which may make it more effective.
  5. Placing the Assisi Loop over the head:
    1. Place the Assisi Loop over the head of the pet with the signal generator toward the ground.  Place the top of the Loop halfway between the ear and shoulder.  See Pictures
    2. If the pet is head shy, cover their eyes while placing the Loop over their head.
    3. The Assisi Loop can be held in place halfway down the length of the neck for the entire treatment time.
  6. The signal generator should be located in view of the person treating the pet.
  7. Do not leave the pet unattended when using this placement as small movements can change the positioning of the Loop and the area being treated.
  8. Turn the unit on by pressing the button on the front of the white rubberized signal generator; green lights will illuminate about once per second.
  9. Keep the unit in place for the full 15 minutes until the unit shuts off.
  10. Use the unit 4 times daily, if possible, until clinical signs have resolved.  Treat twice daily for an additional 3-5 days.  After this, use 1-4 times daily to control inflammation for ease of breathing.
  11. There should be a minimum of 2 hours between treatments for optimal nitric oxide enhancement.
