Forty-two (42) children with asthma, 7 to 15 years old, who had been taking aerosol medications from canister nebulizers for longer than 6 months were evaluated for adequacy of aerosol inhalation technique. The mouthpiece of a canister nebulizer was modified so that actuation of the canister and inhalation through the mouthpiece could be recorded. Of 42 patients, 24 had correct inhalation technique (they synchronized the actuation of canister and inhalation); 18 (43%) did not. The most frequent mistake (11 patients) was releasing the aerosol into the mouth without inhaling. Those who inhaled incorrectly were taught the correct technique by repeated instructions and demonstrations; 11 learned it within 5 minutes, but 7 required a longer instruction period. Most had retained the technique when retested later. The physician should teach each patient the correct technique when aerosol therapy is started and should check again on follow-up examinations to assure that the patient obtains maximum benefit from aerosol therapy.
对42名7至15岁的哮喘患儿进行了评估，这些患儿使用罐式雾化器吸入气雾剂药物超过6个月，以评估其雾化吸入技术是否正确。对罐式雾化器的吸嘴进行了改良，以便记录按压药罐和通过吸嘴吸气的动作。42名患者中，24名吸入技术正确（他们能使按压药罐和吸气同步）；18名（43%）不正确。最常见的错误（11名患者）是在未吸气时将气雾剂喷入口腔。对吸入不正确的患者通过反复指导和示范教授正确技术；11名在5分钟内学会，但7名需要更长的指导时间。大多数患者在随后的重新测试中仍保持了该技术。医生在开始气雾剂治疗时应教会每位患者正确技术，并在随访检查时再次检查，以确保患者从气雾剂治疗中获得最大益处。
