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.
Results from this study demonstrate a reduction in the proportion of patients requiring COPD/chronic bronchitis related readmission within 30 days and 12 months of the Aerobika® OPEP device therapy initiation compared to an alternative OPEP device.
This further supports the use of the Aerobika®OPEP device as an add-on to usual care to manage COPD/chronic bronchitis patients post-exacerbation and highlights that not all OPEP devices are the same in terms of 30-day and 12-month readmissions
