Effect of Aerosol Devices and Administration Techniques on Drug Delivery in a Simulated Spontaneously Breathing Pediatric Tracheostomy Model.
BACKGROUND This study was conducted to compare the efficiency of jet nebulizers, vibrating mesh nebulizers, and pressurized metered-dose inhalers (pMDI) during assisted and unassisted administration techniques using a simulated spontaneously breathing pediatric model with a tracheostomy tube (TT). METHODS An in vitro breathing model consisting of an uncuffed TT (4.5-mm inner diameter) was att...
متن کاملPhysicochemical aspects and efficiency of albuterol nebulization: comparison of three aerosol types in an in vitro pediatric model.
BACKGROUND Advances in nebulizer design have produced both ultrasonic nebulizers and devices based on a vibrating mesh (vibrating mesh nebulizers), which are expected to enhance the efficiency of aerosol drug therapy. The aim of this study was to compare 4 different nebulizers, of 3 different types, in an in vitro model using albuterol delivery and physical characteristics as benchmarks. METH...
متن کاملPressurized Metered-Dose Inhalers Versus Nebulizers in the Treatment of Mechanically Ventilated Subjects With Artificial Airways: An In Vitro Study.
BACKGROUND The primary focus of previous aerosol research during mechanical ventilation was the endotracheal tube (ETT). Consequently, there are limited data in the literature on the delivery of inhaled medications administered with different aerosol devices in mechanically ventilated patients with a tracheostomy tube (TT). The purpose of this study was to quantify and compare the efficiency of...
متن کاملTherapeutic effects of Ventolin versus hypertonic saline 3% for acute bronchiolitis in children
Background: Complications of Ventolin as the most common drug used for bronchiolitis are widely known. The present study was conducted to determine the efficacy of hypertonic saline 3%, compared with Ventolin, for treatment of acute bronchiolitis in children. Methods : This double-blinded clinical trial study was conducted in Hajar Hospital, Shahrekord, Iran, from 2011 to 2012. A total of 7...
متن کاملHigh impact aerosol technology offers higher efficiency, but is not ready for prime time.
The therapeutic administration of medical aerosols has been a standard adjunct to treatment of critically ill patients since positive-pressure mechanical ventilators were introduced over 60 years ago, and most ventilators can operate a jet nebulizer in synchrony with mechanically delivered breaths. However, for the first 40 years, little was known about the efficiency of aerosol delivery during...
