متن کاملEvaluation of Inhaler Technique Mastery and Handling Errors With Spiromax®, Easyhaler®, And Turbuhaler® Devices (Finhaler).
During Step 2 (after reading the PIL), the percentages of participants who used the device without error were higher with Spiromax® (93.3%) compared with Easyhaler® (58.3%), or Turbuhaler® (76.7%) (Table 1). This difference was significant for all comparator groups (p<0.001 [Spiromax® vs Easyhaler® and Spiromax® vs Turbuhaler®]; Table 1). Similarly, in Step 1, Spiromax® was associated with ...
