2. INHALERS
Definition:
Inhalers are hand-held portable devices that
deliver medication directly to the lungs.
Particle Size:
<1μm: reach up to the alveoli.
1-5μm: beyond the 10th generation of bronchi (respirable
particles),
>5μm: oropharynx
3. > 5 µm impaction
1-5 µm sedimentation
< 1 µm like gas
DEPOSITION OF PARTICLES
4. TYPES OF INHALER
1-Metered dose inhalers, also
called MDIs or aerosol inhalers.
2-Breath activated inhalers or dry
powder inhalers (eg, Turbuhaler,
Accuhaler, Handihaler).
3-Nebulisers.
SPACER devices are sometimes recommended for use with
MDIs, to make it easier to use the inhaler and get more
medicine into the lungs.
7. MOST EFFICIENT WAY OF USING MDI- STEPS
- Shake the inhaler well before use (three or four shakes) .
- Remove the cap .
- Breathe out, away from your inhaler .
- Bring the inhaler to your mouth. Place it in your mouth between
your teeth and close your mouth around it.
- Start to breathe in slowly. Press the top of your inhaler once and
keep breathing in slowly until you've taken a full breath .
- Remove the inhaler from your mouth, and hold your breath for
about ten seconds, then breathe out .
- If you need a second puff, wait 30 seconds, shake your inhaler
again, and repeat steps 3-6.
- Always write down the number of puffs you've taken so that you
can anticipate when you need to refill your prescription.
- Store all MDI’s at room temperature.
9. ADVANTAGES OF MDIS
- Compact, portable ,convenient
- Multidose delivery capability
- Lower risk of bacterial contamination
- Suitable for emergency situation
10. DISADVANTAGES OF MDIS
- Needs correct actuation and inhalation.
- coordination difficult for children and
elderly. - Cold Freon effect.
- High pharyngeal drug deposition.
- Flammability possibility of new
propellants.
- Remaining dose –difficult to determine.
11. SPACER
A spacer is a tube that MDI is placed
into and it holds the medication that
is released (with activation of the
MDI) until patient can breathe it in.
The spacer can be cleaned by
soaking in a solution of mild
detergent and water for 15
minutes. Shake out the excess
water and allow to air dry. Replace
the device after 24 months of
continuous use.
13. MDI WITH SPACER
Compensate for poor technique/coordination
with MDI
Spacers slow down the speed of the aerosol
coming from the inhaler, meaning that less
of drug impacts on the back of the mouth
and somewhat more may get into the lungs.
Because of this, less medication is needed for
an effective dose to reach the lungs, and
there are fewer side effects from
corticosteroid residue in the mouth.
14.
15. DISADVANTAGES OF SPACER
- Large size and volume of device.
- Bacterial contamination is possible .
- device needs to be cleaned periodically.
- Electrostatic charges may reduce
drug delivery to the lungs.
17. SINGLE DOSE DEVICES
Had to be reloaded with capsule containing
micronized drug in a large particle carrier
powder ,usually lactose
18. ROTAHALER
The Rotahaler is just one of many devices that are available.
It uses special capsules, called Rotacaps, that contain the
medication in a very fine powder form that is effectively
delivered into the lungs when you inhale through the
Rotahaler.
21. TURBUHALER DEVICE
Turbuhalers are a tube-shaped inhaler
which has the medication inside
in the form of a dry powder.
They have a removable cover and
a twisting base. The device is ‘breath-activated’
which means the dry powder medication is ‘sucked’
from the device rather than ‘fired’ like it is from
other devices.
Turbuhalers may be difficult to use for young children,
or adults who are short of breath. It is
recommended to have a puffer and spacer
available for emergencies.
23. HOW TO USE A TURBUHALER:
- Unscrew the cap and take it off. Hold the inhaler upright
- Twist the coloured grip of your Turbuhaler® as far as it will go. Then
twist it all the way back. You have done it right when you hear a
"click"
- Breathe out away from the device
- Put the mouthpiece between your teeth, and close your lips around it.
Breathe in forcefully and deeply through your mouth
- Remove the Turbuhaler® from your mouth before breathing out
- Always check the number in the side counter window under the
mouthpiece to see how many doses are left. For the Turbuhalers®
that do not have a dose counter window, check the window for a red
mark, which means your medication is running out. When finished,
replace the cap.
24. ADVANTAGES OF DPIS
- Breath-actuated.
- Less patient coordination
required.
- Spacer not necessary.
- Compact Portable.
- No propellant.
- Usually higher lung deposition
than a pMDI.
25. DISADVANTAGES OF DPIS
- Work poorly if inhalation is not forceful
enough.
- Many patients cannot use them correctly
(e.g.
capsule handling problems for elderly.
- Most types are moisture sensitive,
Humidity potentially causes powder
clumping and reduced dispersal of fine
particle mass.
- Need to reload capsule each time.
26. NEBULISERS
A nebuliser is a machine that converts liquid
medication into a fine mist that can then be inhaled.
They used to be used by many people to take their
asthma medications, but these days are much less
common as we have easier, faster and less
expensive ways to take the medications.
27. TYPE OF NEBULISER:
Jet nebulizer:-The most commonly used nebulizers are Jet
nebulizers, which are also called "atomizers". Jet nebulizers are
connected by tubing to a compressor, that causes compressed air or
oxygen to flow at high velocity through a liquid medicine to turn it into
an aerosol, which is then inhaled by the patient.
Ultrasonic wave nebulizer:-
a new type of portable nebulizer. The technology inside an ultrasonic
wave nebulizer is to have an electronic oscillator generate a high
frequency ultrasonic wave, which causes the mechanical vibration of
a piezoelectric element. This vibrating element is in contact with a
liquid reservoir and its high frequency vibration is sufficient to
produce a vapor mist.
28. JET NEBULIZER
Delivers compressed gas through a jet, causing
an area of negative pressure and drawing the
liquid up the tube by the Bernoulli effect. The
solution is entrained into the gas stream and
then sheared into a liquid film that is unstable
and is broken into droplets by surface tension
forces. The fundamental concept of nebulizer
performance is the conversion of the
medication solution into droplets in the
respirable range of 1-5 micrometers
29.
30. ULTRASONIC NEBULIZER
Generates high-frequency ultrasonic waves
(1.63 MHz) from electrical energy via a
piezoelectric element in the transducer.
These ultrasonic waves are transmitted to
the surface of the solution to create an
aerosol. Aerosol delivery is by a fan or the
patient’s inspiratory flow; particle sizes may
be larger with this device. A limitation of
ultrasonic nebulizers is that they do not
nebulize suspensions efficiently
31. ADVANTAGES OF NEBULIZERS
- Provide therapy for patients who
cannot use other inhalation modalities
(eg, MDI, DPI)
- Allow administration of large doses of
medicine
- Patient coordination not required
- Effective with tidal breathing
- Dose modification possible
- Can be used with supplemental
oxygen
32. DISADVANTAGES OF NEBULIZERS
- Decreased portability
- Longer set-up and
administration time
- Higher cost
- Electrical power source
required
- Contamination possible

34. CONCLUSION
A number of inhalation devices are
available for the treatment of
pulmonary diseases, each with its
own advantages and disadvantages.
None has proven to be superior to
the others in any of the clinical
situations tested. Whichever device
is chosen, the key to successful
treatment lies at a proper inhaler
technique
