14% | 18% | 10% | TOTAL 42% | |
As you can see from the above chart, the win ratio for these 33 horses increased from 10 to 14% after Transpirator System treatment. The win, place and show average increased from 28% to a very respectable 42% after treatment. Since the Transpirator System has been in general use in the field, many trainers have reported dramatic improvements in their horse’s performances. This being the case in horses that had previously suffered from respiratory disorders which were believed by the trainers to have impaired their performance.
POWERFUL, PORTABLE, SAFE AND EASY TO USE The Centurion Equine Transpirator System is simple to operate. Built-in fail-safe features prevent the delivery of vapour above the optimum temperature. The unit automatically turns itself off in the case of any malfunction or loss of water supply. The Transpirator unit is a powerful and completely safe medical quality device, which provides over 300 litres per minute of soothing water vapour.
NOT A NEBULIZER The Transpirator System, in contrast, warms, humidifies, and preconditions the horse's entire inhalation with droplet-free water vapour. This heated humidity can penetrate the lungs all the way to the bronchioles and alveoli. It is in the small airways that obstructions are most prevalent. The resulting hydration and removal of airway of obstruction helps the respiratory system function at peak efficiency.
USE IN CASES OF EIPH
As shown in the chart below, bronchoscopic examinations of 33 known bleeders treated with Transpirator therapy revealed that bleeding had been eliminated or substantially reduced. A recent article in a veterinary textbook cited Transpirator therapy as possibly being effective in horses with EIPH through improved clearance of airway obstructions or a reduction in airway reactivity.

FOR GENERAL RESPIRATORY HEALTH Transpirator therapy enhances the natural cleansing action in the horse's respiratory system. Your horse feels better and breathes easier. A healthy, well-hydrated upper respiratory tract is the first line of defence against respiratory disease. From the common cold in racehorses to foal pneumonia on breeding farms, the Transpirator System eases distress during the course of the illness and in many cases shortens recovery time.
ESPECIALLY BENEFICIAL FOR COLD WEATHER RACING
Poor oxygen exchange, congestion and excessive dryness of the reparatory system may be contributing factors to a decline in performance during cold weather.
TREATS MANY HORSES ... SAFELY
The sterilant supplied with each Transpirator II system is used to disinfect the unit. This powerful, broad spectrum antiseptic kills a wide array of microorganisms on contact. Properly disinfected masks are far less likely to spread infection than the water buckets you are using right now!
