Delivery of salbutamol to nonventilated preterm infants by metered-dose inhaler, jet nebulizer, and ultrasonic nebulizer.
To identify the most efficient device for the delivery of bronchodilator aerosol to nonventilated preterm infants with chronic lung disease, we compared the metered dose inhaler (MDI) used in conjunction with a non-valved spacer, an ultrasonic nebulizer with a small medication cup, and two jet nebulizers. The subjects were enrolled in two double-blind randomized crossover studies. In study A (n...
متن کاملMedication nebulizer performance. Effects of diluent volume, nebulizer flow, and nebulizer brand.
BACKGROUND Medication nebulizers are commonly used to delivery aerosolized medications to patients with respiratory disease. We evaluated output and respirable aerosol available to the patient (inhaled mass) for 17 medication nebulizers using a spontaneous breathing lung model. METHODS Three nebulizer fill volumes (3, 4, and 5 mL containing 2.5 mg of albuterol) and 3 oxygen flows (6, 8, and 1...
متن کاملNebulizer testing
Two major factors affect drug delivery with nebulizers: usage time and droplet size. Unlike other inhalation devices, nebulizers provide continuous delivery instead of a pre-metered dose of drug. Once loaded and activated, a nebulizer operates with the user breathing normally so that the patient’s breathing profile and usage time determine the amount of drug received. As with other inhalation p...
متن کاملComparison of a Nebulizer Using a Novel Aerosol Generator with a Standard Ultrasonic Nebulizer Designed for Use during Mechanical Ventilation
Figure 1: Diagram of SUN 145 (from product instruction manual) Ultrasonic nebulizers (USNs) generate aerosols without changing ventilator volumes or alarms. However, USN output varies with gas flow, is position dependent and generates heat. We wanted to determine whether the AeronebTM Professional Nebulizer System (Aeroneb Pro; Aerogen, Inc., Sunnyvale, CA)* has similar limitations. METHODS: We...
متن کاملA prototype high-frequency ultrasonic nebulizer, coupled with a nebu
A prototype high-frequency ultrasonic nebulizer, coupled with a nebu lization chamber, has been designed specifically to overcome the problem of inefficient and unpredictable radioaerosol delivery. The objective was to reduce mean particle size, increase aerosol concentration, and minimize dead space. Thirty-nine patients were studied, including 15 patients in sig nificant respiratory distress....
