Many aerosol delivery devices are available on the market that have different features, characteristics, and operating requirements that need to be considered for the effective treatment of patients with pulmonary diseases. Device selection in aerosol medicine is largely patient dependent. Since there is no aerosol device that suits all patient populations, device selection and successful integration of the prescribed aerosol device to patients is essential. This article explores key issues in differential device selection in spontaneously breathing adults with or without artificial airways, as well as critically ill patients receiving invasive and noninvasive ventilation, with discussion of considerations for integration of aerosol devices to each of these patient populations.
市场上有许多气溶胶输送装置,它们具有不同的特性、特点和操作要求,在有效治疗肺部疾病患者时需要加以考虑。气溶胶药物治疗中的装置选择很大程度上取决于患者。由于没有一种气溶胶装置适用于所有患者群体,因此选择合适的装置并使规定的气溶胶装置成功应用于患者至关重要。本文探讨了在有或无人造气道的自主呼吸成人以及接受有创和无创通气的重症患者中进行差异化装置选择的关键问题,并讨论了将气溶胶装置应用于这些患者群体时的注意事项。
