Medication delivery can vary significantly depending on the pMDI/spacer system which will have implications on the carbon footprint. In this case, the use of the AeroChamber Plus* Flow-Vu* spacer could potentially reduce the carbon footprint by up to five-fold compared to other spacers.
Medications to manage care of bronchiectasis and NTM patients are often delivered via a nebulizer. This study compares a number of different OPEP/Nebulizer combinations using salbutamol as the modelled medication.
COPD/chronic bronchitis patients given an Aerobika* OPEP device compared to an alternative OPEP device had delayed time to re-admission. This supports use of the Aerobika* OPEP device as an add-on to usual care post-exacerbation and highlights differences in OPEP device effectiveness.
