Overcoming jet lag: optimizing aerosol delivery with and without jet nebulizers.
Early studies have shown that only a small fraction of the nominal nebulizer dose (1–12%) is available for delivery to the lungs in intubated children and adults.1-3 Since then, the characterization of forces governing aerosol delivery in ventilated patients has led to improvements in techniques, and the development of newer aerosol generators with the ability to deliver as much drug to ventila...
متن کاملJet lag.
INTRODUCTION Jet lag affects most air travellers crossing five or more time zones; it tends to be worse on eastward than on westward flights. METHODS AND OUTCOMES We conducted a systematic review and aimed to answer the following clinical question: What are the effects of interventions to prevent or minimise jet lag? We searched: Medline, Embase, The Cochrane Library, and other important data...
متن کاملJet nebulizers versus pressurized metered dose inhalers with valved holding chambers: effects of the facemask on aerosol delivery.
The delivery of an aerosolized drug to a child is a complex process requiring an interaction between parent, child, and inhalation device. Recent studies have shown that the facemask can be a key factor affecting aerosol delivery, particularly the influence of leaks between the facemask and the face. To further quantify these effects and design around them, we have developed a bench model consi...
متن کاملJet lag modification.
Athletes often are required to travel for sports participation, both for practice and competition. A number of those crossing multiple time zones will develop jet lag disorder with possible negative consequences on their performance. This review will discuss the etiology of jet lag disorder and the techniques that are available to shorten or minimize its effects. This includes both pharmacologi...
متن کاملJet Lag in Athletes
CONTEXT Prolonged transmeridian air travel can impart a physical and emotional burden on athletes in jet lag and travel fatigue. Jet lag may negatively affect the performance of athletes. STUDY TYPE Descriptive review. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION A Medline search for articles relating to jet lag was performed (1990-present), as was a search relating to jet lag and athletes (1983-January, 2012). Th...
