Metered Dose

Effective administration of medication to the lungs as an aerosol depends on the delivery system and its position in relation to the patient. Metered dose inhalers have proven efficacy, availability in a variety of medications, cost-effectiveness, and similar therapeutic outcomes when compared with other methods of aerosol administration such as the dry powder inhaler or a small volume nebulizer. Patient capabilities, convenience, disease state, breathing pattern, and proper technique continue to be issues that deserve attention. However, regardless of the delivery system chosen, it is important to remember that the aerosol drug should be titrated to maximize the therapeutic effect.

Respimat®Soft MistTM is a newly developed spray inhaler. Different from traditional nebulizers, metered-dose inhalers, and dry powder inhalers, this new type of inhaler can produce aerosols with long duration, relatively slow speed, and a high content of fine particles. Investigating the effect of the key geometric parameters of the device on the atomization is of great significance for generic product development and inhaler optimization. In this paper, a laser high-speed camera experimental platform is built, and important parameters such as the geometric pattern and particle size distribution of the Respimat®Soft MistTM are measured. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and the volume of fluid method coupled with the Shear Stress Transport (SST) k-ω turbulence model are applied to simulate the key geometric parameters of the device. The effects of geometric parameters on the spray velocity distribution and geometric pattern are obtained. The angle of flow collision, the sphere size of the central divider and the length and width of the flow channel show significant impacts on the spray atomization.

This study confirms that a large percentage of patients use MDI improperly. It also demonstrates a significant lack of understanding by health care providers of the proper use of MDI. Furthermore, this study supports the use of respiratory care practitioners in the outpatient setting, since they were the most proficient among all the health care providers in the proper use of MDI.
