The delivery of medication from the AEROECLIPSE* II BAN* to the lungs was not affected by the incorporation of the Aerobika* OPEP device. Aerosol deposition within the lung was unaltered by the addition of the OPEP device as evidenced by the near identical percentage of the dose being deposited in both the peripheral and central airways.
BAN+OPEP therapy could offer the clinician the opportunity for combined treatment thereby reducing the time needed for the patient to take both nebulizer and OPEP treatments separately.
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.
As a medical device manufacturer, we are committed to minimizing any disruption to the supply of our products to our customers globally, during this unprecedented time with the outbreak of COVID-19.
