Question
Answer
suspension of liquid particles in gas   Aerosol  
🗑
device that produces uniform sized particles   Nebulizer  
🗑
device that breaks down large particles   baffle  
🗑
deposition of particles by collision   Inertial impaction  
🗑
retention of particels in the respiratory tract   Desposition  
🗑
measurement of average particle size   MMAD  
🗑
weight or mass produced by a nebulizer   Aerosol output  
🗑
particle size is dependent on   substance being nebulized type of nebulizer chosen method used to generate aerosol envoiromental conditions  
🗑
because medical aerosols contain different size partivles how are they expressed   MMAD (measured in micrometers) VMD Volum medican Diameter  
🗑
particles deposited when they leave suspension in gas   deposition  
🗑
amount of drug inhaled   inhaled mass  
🗑
poportion of drug mass of proper size to reach the lower respiratory tract   respirable mass  
🗑
intertail inpaction sedmentation brownian diffusion   aerosol depsosition  
🗑
suspended partivles in maotion collide and are deposited on the surface, TURBULENT, range of um   inertial impaction  
🗑
particles settle out of suspension and are deposited due to gravity, effects central airway 1-5 um range   sedimentation  
🗑
random drifiting of particles suspened in fluid <3 um, mainly in the respiratory region where bulk gas flow ceases ALVEOLI   Diffusion  
🗑
primary reaction to aerosol drug therapy   drug reaction infection airway reactivity  
🗑
pressurized canister that contains drug, most commonly prescribed aerosol therapy 80% lost 3-6 um produced   MDI  
🗑
autohaler, only medication available this way in the us only   pirbuterol ( Maxair) Flow triggered MDI  
🗑
reduce oropharyngal deposition, reduce need for hand- breath coordination increase pulmonary deposition   spacers and holding chamber  
🗑
simple extention device puts distance between the MDI and patients mouth   spacer  
🗑
incorporates a vavle that prevents the aerosol from being cleared by patient's exhalation   holding chamber  
🗑
breath actuated, meter dosing system patient creats aerosol particle size 1-2 um deposited in oropharynx   DPI  
🗑
Spinhaler   intal  
🗑
rotahaler   albuterol  
🗑
flexhaler   pulmicort  
🗑
diskus   advair, serevent  
🗑
aerolizer   foradil  
🗑
twisthaler   asmanex  
🗑
handihaler   spiriva  
🗑
produces aerosol droplets in range of 0.1-500um powered by high pressure stream, MOST Commom   SVN  
🗑
continuous delivering treatment, high- output aerosol MMAD 2.2-3.5um, slowly opens airways TX Q 20-30min   LVN, Heart, Hope  
🗑
specificaly for Ribavirin to treat RSV, Toxic to unborn fetus particle size of 1.2-1.4um   SPAG  
🗑
caplable of higher aerosol outputs   USNs  
🗑
Does not add extra flow to the ventilator   small volume USNs  
🗑
used mailnly for bland aerosoltherapy or sputum induction   Large volum USNs  
🗑
used to administer medication to upper airway ( nasal, pharynx, larynx) medication deliverd here before bronchoscopy   hand- bulb atomizer  
🗑
thumb control in compressed air line allows patient to divert gas flow to the nebulizer during inspiration only   BEN breath enhanced nebuliers  
🗑
sense inpiration and pulse airflow to jet orifice   Dosimeters (BANs)  
🗑
breath actuated jet nebulizer nebulizer ceases when patient's inspiratory flow decreases below a certain point   aeroeclipse  
🗑
monitors pressure changes and inspiratory time for the first 3 consecutive breaths, audible signal sounds   AAD  
🗑
pre assessment   breath sounds HR, RR, quality , cough spo2 WOB, SOB peak flow rate  
🗑
Post assessment   breath sounds HR, RR, quality, cough, aptients response to thearapy, WOB, SOB peak flow rate SPO2  
🗑
what should you do during treatment   communicate with the patient  
🗑
