Efficacy is a major aspect when selecting an OPEP device for airway clearance.

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

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.

• The FRI deposition profiles highlight that the MDI/AeroChamber Plus* Flow-Vu* VHC delivered a significantly greater percentage of drug to the lung region than either of the two DPIs, irrespective of flow rate.
• This was reflected in much higher modelled oropharyngeal deposition for the two DPIs.
• The influence of inhalation flow profile was significant for one of the DPIs.

Conclusion

• The FRI deposition profiles highlight that the MDI/AeroChamber Plus* Flow-Vu* VHC delivered a significantly greater percentage of drug to the lung region than either of the two DPIs, irrespective of flow rate.
• This was reflected in much higher modelled oropharyngeal deposition for the two DPIs.
• The influence of inhalation flow profile was significant for one of the DPIs.

• A systematic review of nebulizer use highlighted a few different potential mechanisms for fugitive emissions. Differences in nebulizer design had an impact in the amount and type of fugitive emissions emitted.
• Through the choice of an appropriate nebulizer, the natural risk can be greatly reduced, and through selection of appropriate mitigation strategies, the risk can be almost eliminated.

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.

May 1, 2018: Today is the 20th annual World Asthma Day, an event held each May to raise awareness of Asthma worldwide. World Asthma Day is organized by the Global Initiative for Asthma, or GINA (www.ginasthma.org), a World Health Organization collaborative and 501(c)3 organization founded in 1993.

If you suffer from Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (COPD), simple tasks can start to feel larger than life. While there is no cure, there are steps you can take to improve your health and quality of life.

Asthma impacts different people in different ways. Most people are able to control their asthma with regular use of their controller medication and using their reliever medication when necessary. However, for many it can be difficult to recognize when their asthma is not controlled. When asthma is well-controlled, you will experience little to no asthma symptoms.

It is our pleasure to announce that in honour of the late Mitchell Baran, the founder and leader of the Trudell Medical Group of Companies, the City of London has renamed the portion of Third Street that two of the Trudell Companies are located to “Baransway Drive”.

CONCLUSIONS

• A systematic review of nebulizer use highlighted a few different potential mechanisms for fugitive emissions. Differences in nebulizer design had an impact in the amount and type of fugitive emissions emitted.
• Through the choice of an appropriate nebulizer, the natural risk can be greatly reduced, and through selection of appropriate mitigation strategies, the risk can be almost eliminated.

Patient use & evaluations of Aerobika* device across 23 UK Centres

RESULT: Improved CAT scores, 92% patients continuing Tx, 87% HCP (very) happy.

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.

• The FRI deposition profiles highlight that the MDI/ AeroChamber Plus* Flow Vu* VHC system delivered an appreciably greater percentage of drug to the lung region than either of the two DPIs.
• The influence of inhalation flow profile was less with the MDI/VHC system and differed between the two DPIs.

The FRI deposition profiles highlighted significant differences between the VHCs on test, with intrathoracic delivery for the AeroChamber Plus* Flow-Vu* VHC system being almost double that of the other two VHC systems and being similar to the MDI alone with perfect coordination

While it’s one of the most anticipated seasons of the year, summer can also be the most difficult season for Canadians living with COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). We want to help you make the most of it! Here’s what you need to know about summer, and how you can enjoy yours this year.
