Evaluations of inhaler use have demonstrated that mishandling of MDIs is commonplace.
One of the most common errors is the failure to coordinate inhalation with actuation of the inhaler
One of the reasons why VHCs are often prescribed, is to reduce the severity of this error
This Functional Respiratory Imaging (FRI) based study assessed the likely severity of a short inhalation delay (from actuation) with an MDI alone and how it contrasted to the use with a VHC
