The use of nebulisers was assessed in four hospitals. Nebulisers were checked in use and medical and nursing staff were interviewed. All but one nebuliser was driven by 100% oxygen and only 3 of 111 interviewees preferred air for patients with hypercapnia. In 5 of 44 nebulisers in use, water was used as the dilutant. The calculated times for complete nebulisation of the solutions ranged from 3.5 to 117 min. The results of this survey illustrate a need for better education concerning the use of nebulisers in hospitals.
在四家医院对雾化器的使用情况进行了评估。检查了正在使用的雾化器,并对医护人员进行了访谈。除了一台雾化器外,其余所有雾化器均由100%氧气驱动,在111名受访者中,只有3人倾向于为高碳酸血症患者使用空气。在44台正在使用的雾化器中,有5台使用水作为稀释剂。计算得出的溶液完全雾化时间为3.5至117分钟。本次调查结果表明,医院在雾化器使用方面需要更好的教育。
