Salmeterol administration by metered-dose inhaler alone vs metered-dose inhaler plus valved holding chamber.
STUDY OBJECTIVE To determine whether a spacer device designed as a valved holding chamber with a flow signal increases the efficacy of the long-acting beta(2)-agonist, salmeterol, in patients who use incorrect technique with metered-dose inhaler (MDI) alone. DESIGN Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study. SETTING University hospital outpatient rooms. PATIENTS Twenty adult outpa...
متن کاملPrinciples of metered-dose inhaler design.
The pressurized metered-dose inhaler (pMDI) was introduced to deliver asthma medications in a convenient and reliable multi-dose presentation. The key components of the pMDI device (propellants, formulation, metering valve, and actuator) all play roles in the formation of the spray, and in determining drug delivery to the lungs. Hence the opportunity exists to design a pMDI product by adjusting...

متن کاملA comparison of breath-actuated and conventional metered-dose inhaler inhalation techniques in elderly subjects.
BACKGROUND Poor coordination of canister actuation and inspiration often prevents adequate metered-dose inhaler (MDI) usage by patients, perhaps especially so among the elderly. Breath-actuated inhalers (BAI) have been developed to prevent this problem. METHODS We compared the adequacy of inhaler technique and patient preferences between MDI and BAI in a group of elderly subjects (mean age, 7...
متن کاملImproved asthma control with breath-actuated pressurized metered dose inhaler (pMDI): the SYSTER survey.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Poor inhalation technique may impact both asthma control and compliance in patients with asthma. The SYSTER survey is therefore aimed at assessing the influence of starting or switching an existing therapy to a breath-actuated pressurized metered dose inhaler (pMDI, Autohaler) on these parameters. MATERIALS AND METHODS 709 French general practitioners (GP) enrolled 2...
