Effects of Nebulizer Position, Gas Flow, and CPAP on Aerosol Bronchodilator Delivery: An In Vitro Study.
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of different delivery circuit configurations, nebulizer positions, CPAP levels, and gas flow on the amount of aerosol bronchodilator delivered during simulated spontaneous breathing in an in vitro model. METHODS A pneumatic lung simulator was connected to 5 different circuits for aerosol delivery, 2 delivering CPAP through a high...
متن کاملAerosol delivery of recombinant human DNase I: in vitro comparison of a vibrating-mesh nebulizer with a jet nebulizer.
BACKGROUND Inhaled recombinant human DNase I (rhDNase) improves clearance of visco-elastic secretions in patients with cystic fibrosis. Because of their portability, newer-generation vibrating-mesh nebulizers offer greater convenience for the patient, but their efficiency in delivering rhDNase has not been determined. METHODS We compared a newer-generation vibrating-mesh nebulizer (Omron Micr...
متن کاملA method for increasing jet nebulizer delivery efficiency for aerosol drug delivery in ventilated newborns: an in vitro study.
BACKGROUND A substantial percentage of the aerosol produced by a nebulizer is lost down the expiratory limb of the ventilator circuit. We describe a method for the capture, return, and re-aerosolization of that undelivered aerosol. METHODS We designed an expiratory-limb setup in which an "entraining jet" of gas accelerates unused aerosol and propels it toward an impaction surface. The deposit...
متن کاملthe effect of e-64 on the developmental competence of sheep cocs during in vitro maturation
in the present study, the effect of e-64 at different concentrations (0.5, 1, 5 and 10 µm) added to (1) the ivm medium on oocyte nuclear maturation and developmental competence of ovine oocytes, and (2) to the ivc medium on embryonic development of ovine embryos were investigated.
Effects on aerosol performance of mixing of either budesonide or beclomethasone dipropionate with albuterol and ipratropium bromide.
BACKGROUND Mixing of nebulized drugs is common in real life, but its consequences on aerosol output and granulometry are poorly known. METHODS In an in vitro study I evaluated the effects on aerosol output, drug output, and aerosol particle size characteristics of mixing either beclomethasone dipropionate or budesonide with albuterol and ipratropium bromide. I tested the SideStream and VentSt...
