Presented at ATS 2019:
- This study has shown there is a relatively linear association of airway pressures with increase in gas flow when using the device over the gas flows investigated.
- The VersaPAP* device could be considered to provide short-term positive pressure support to a patient if there was no direct access to the use of non-invasive mechanical ventilation.

Presented at ATS 2019:
- The experiments reported in this study should caution practitioners regarding the interchangeability of OPEP and aerosol delivery devices.
- The findings reinforce that data obtained with one combination of devices cannot be extrapolated to other devices, as performance variation can occur.
Presented at ATS 2019:
- The MC 300* nebulizer offers the clinician additional choice when short treatment times and maximizing respirable dose are a priority.
Presented at ATS 2019:
- Based on these laboratory data, the VHC with tracheostomy adaptor appears to provide a reliable means of delivering SMI aerosols to patients with a tracheostomy tube or tracheal stoma.
- Further research is required to determine the clinical relevance of these in vitro findings.
