Q

What are the clinical uses of Aerosols?

A

Humidify dry inspired gas, using water aerosol

  • Sputum induction and to improve mobilization/clearance of respiratory secretions using bland aerosols
  • Deliver aerosolized drugs (bronchodilators, anti inflammatories and antibiotics) to resp tract

Q

What is the Mass Median Aerodynamic Diameter (MMAD)

A

Describes the average particle diameter (um)

  • 50% of the particles are smaller and have less mass
  • 50% of the particles are larger and have greater mass

Q

What are advantages of Aerosolized Meds?

A

onset is rapid as drug is delivered to the intended target area (resp tract)

  • small doses
  • Fewer systemic side effects w/less severe with oral/parenteral therapy
  • inhaled drug therapy is painless and convenient

  • Local anesthesia
18
Q

3 types of Nebulizer routes?

  • what do they most commonly contain?
A

SVN, USN, SPAG all generally contain:

  • reservoir chamber
  • Baffle or similar mech
19

20
Q

When would you select a SVN for use?

A

Patient preference/home use , formulation of drug, and
Emergency

  • Unable to follow instructions/disoriented
  • Tachypneic (>25bpm)/unstable respiratory pattern
  • Poor inspiratory capacity
  • Incapable of breath hold
21
Q

When would you select a MDI for use?

A
  • Able to follow instructions / demonstrate correct use
  • Adequate inspiratory capacity
  • Capable of breath hold
  • Stable respiratory pattern
  • Drug available in MDI form
  • Use reservoir device
22
Q

When would you select a DPI for use?

A
  • Drug available in DPI form
  • Poor MDI coordination
  • Sensitive to propellants
  • Capable of generating high inspiratory flow rates (> 30-60 lpm) depending on drug
  • Need accurate dose count monitoring
23
Q

What are complications PEDs have compared to adults?

A
  • Smaller tracheal diameter
  • Shorter trachea
  • Higher RR
  • Lower MV
  • Lower deadspace
  • Lower inspiratory flow rate
24
Q

Why do pediatrics < 12 generally have less deposition of inhaled medication to the lower airways?

A

Smaller diameter of airways
