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 کاملIncorrect use of pressurised metered dose inhaler by asthmatic patients.
The use of pressurised metered dose inhalers was assessed among 93 asthmatic patients attending the respiratory out patient clinic between January to October 1989. They were regular users of the inhalers prior to the assessment. 62.4% of the patients were found to use the inhalers incorrectly. Forty three percent made more than one error. The commonest error observed was the failure to actuate ...
متن کاملAsthma pressurised metered dose inhaler performance: propellant effect studies in delivery systems
BACKGROUND Current pressurised metered dose asthma inhaler (pMDI) propellants are not inert pharmacologically as were previous chlorofluorocarbons, have smooth muscle relaxant' partial pressure effects in the lungs and inhaled hydrofluoroalkane 134a (norflurane) has anaesthetic effects. Volumes of propellant gas per actuation have never been measured. METHODS In-vitro studies measured gas vol...
متن کاملMetered dose inhaler and nebuliser in acute asthma.
One hundred and eleven children with acute asthma were studied to compare delivery of terbutaline by either a metered dose inhaler (MDI) with a valved holding chamber or a nebuliser driven by air. Eligible patients were randomised; the MDI group received three puffs (0.75 mg) of terbutaline and the nebuliser group received 2 ml (5.0 mg) terbutaline solution diluted with 2 ml 0.9% saline for inh...
متن کاملMastering the metered-dose inhaler: an essential step toward improving asthma control in school.
