Description
Key Features
Spacer Device: This is a valved holding chamber (VHC) that acts as a reservoir for the medication. It allows the user to take a deep breath to inhale the medicine, rather than relying on perfect coordination of pressing the inhaler and breathing in at the same time.
Flow-Vu® Indicator: A key feature of the AeroChamber Plus is its Flow-Vu® indicator, a small flap that moves as the patient inhales. This provides visual feedback to the patient or caregiver to confirm a proper seal and correct inhalation technique.
Compatibility: The universal adapter on the device allows it to be used with most common MDIs.
Ergonomic Design: The chamber is transparent, allowing users to see the aerosolized medication inside. It is also designed to be easy to handle and to provide a secure seal with the mouth.
Cleaning and Maintenance: The spacer is designed for easy cleaning, which is important for long-term use and hygiene.
Uses
Respiratory Care: The primary use is to deliver inhaled medication more effectively to patients with respiratory conditions such as asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
Patient Training: It is an essential tool for training patients on the correct use of their inhaler and spacer, especially for children and the elderly, or anyone who has difficulty with inhaler coordination.
Medical and Nursing Education: The spacer is used in medical and nursing programs to teach students about respiratory care, medication delivery, and patient education.
Improving Medication Delivery: By preventing the medication from landing in the back of the throat and mouth, the spacer helps ensure that more of the medication reaches the lungs, where it is needed.
