How Might Choice of Salbutamol Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) Type and Use of a Spacer Impact Drug Delivery and Emissions - Best for the Patient and Environment

As current MDIs contain hydrofluorocarbon propellants, it would be beneficial to find ways to reduce carbon emissions without compromising patient safety.

This lab study investigated a way to optimize the modelled lung dose per actuation while at the same time minimizing the carbon emissions from the MDI

Maximizing the benefit from the inhaler in order to minimize carbon footprint

Depending on the pMDI/spacer system chosen the delivery of medication can vary significantly and as a result will have implications on the potential carbon footprint.

In this case, the use of the AeroChamber Plus* Flow-Vu* VHC could potentially reduce the carbon footprint by three fold compared to the alternative spacers.

By maximizing the amount of each puff reaching the lungs the patient is likely to be able to get relief sooner and reduce the amount of puffs needed.

Living with Asthma

Asthma is a chronic respiratory disease, characterized by narrowing of the airways and excess mucus production. People with asthma typically suffer from chest tightness/pain, shortness of breath, and episodes of coughing and wheezing.

Living with NTM Lung Disease

Nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lung disease is a chronic, progressive condition caused by nontuberculous mycobacteria. NTM lung disease occurs more frequently in older adults and people with other lung diseases, like bronchiectasis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Living with COPD

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) affects around 251 million people globally.1 It is a term that covers two types of chronic (long-term) diseases where the airways in the lungs become “obstructed” or partly blocked.
