  • Inhalation Devices: Various Forms of Administration for Therapeutic Optimization
    vv ISSN: 2640-8082 DOI: https://dx.doi.org/10.17352/oja CLINICAL GROUP Renata Cristina de Angelo Calsaverini Leal* Review Article Santa Fé do Sul Foundation of Education and Culture, Brazil Inhalation Devices: Various forms Dates: Received: 31 May, 2017; Accepted: 26 June, of administration for Therapeutic 2017; Published: 27 June, 2017 *Corresponding author: Renata Cristina de Angelo Optimization Calsaverini Leal, Santa Fé do Sul Foundation of Education and Culture, Brazil, Tel: 55 (17) 3272-2769, E-mail: Keywords: Inhalation; Aerosol; Nebulizer Summary https://www.peertechz.com Introduction: Aerosol therapy consists of spraying liquid particles suspended for therapeutic purposes in the respiratory tract. With direct absorption and deposition at the lung level, avoiding side effects and presenting fast response time. Several factors infl uence the drug action, such as size, particle movement, ventilatory fl ow, pulmonary expansion, anatomy, respiratory mechanics and the nebulizer and patient interface. The therapeutic optimization depends on the type of nebulizer differentiating itself by the physical principle that generates the mist. Objectives: Check advantages and disadvantages of different inhalation devices. Methodology. This is a review of the PubMed database using descriptors: ultrasonic and jet nebulizer, aerosol deposition in the lung, metered dose inhaler and dry, inhaler therapy. Results: Different devices are mentioned in the literature: pneumatic and ultrasonic nebulizers (administering solutions), metered pressurized inhalers - pMDI used with or without expander chamber (administering suspensions) and dry powder inhalers - DPI (administering powder). Discussion and Conclusion: The US has advantages: quiet, does not require coordinating abilities, without propellant gases and quick nebulization with small amount of solution. Disadvantages: change in the active principle of thermosensitive drugs, deposition in the oropharynx and VAI of 2% of inhaled particles.

    To help make the use of prescription drugs safer and more affordable, our plan is now using a Drug Quantity Management program. That is, for certain medications, you can receive an amount to last you a certain number of days. This gives you the right amount to take the daily dose considered safe and effective, according to the recommendations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Based on the FDA’s guidelines and other medical information, our plan developed this program together with Express Scripts, the company chosen to manage our prescription drug benefit. The following limits are based on a 30-day supply. If your plan allows for additional days supply, your limits may be higher. For instance, you may be able to get a 90-day supply of your medication through mail order service. Your doctor could also request a prior authorization. If this request is approved, a prior authorization would let you receive more than the recommended quantity.

  • Priority for Everyone, and Even More So for Those with Chronic Illnesses
    Mouth Care: Patient/Caregiver Training Hospice of Cincinnati Mouth Care is a high priority for everyone, and even more so for those with chronic illnesses. Proper mouth care has many benefits including: 1. Increasing appetite 2. Maintaining comfort 3. Clearer speech 4. Easier swallowing 5. Preventing sores and infection. General tips: Mouth care should be performed a minimum of twice daily and more frequently for dry mouth, if breathing through the mouth, or if you are not eating. Mouth care should always be performed after using an inhaler/nebulizer to prevent thrush. Thrush is slightly raised white patches or a rash typically seen on the tongue or inner cheeks. There may be pain with swallowing. Contact your hospice nurse immediately if you suspect thrush. Dentures may no longer fit well. You may consider using them only when eating or when visiting with friends and family. Questions or concerns? Call a hospice nurse at 513-891-7700. Training: Mouth Care. ©2017 Hospice of Cincinnati Hospice of Cincinnati Relieving dry mouth: 1. Increase frequency of mouth care. 2. Encourage sucking on candy, ice chips, popsicles or taking small sips of water to increase saliva. 3. Use of a mouthwash can increase dryness. Talk to your nurse about a proper mouth moisturizer/artificial saliva product. For those with difficulty swallowing: • Raise the head of the bed and support the head with pillows, turn head to one side. • Cover the upper body with a towel to keep the area clean and dry. • Remove dentures prior to mouth care and brush separately. • Use a toothette, which is a sponge-tipped oral swab, to clean the mouth and teeth using a small amount of toothpaste.

  • Hydrogen Peroxide, and This Is the Same Substance That Can Be Purchased in a 32-Ounce Plastic Bottle at Walmart, for 88 Cents, Or at Walgreens for Under a $1.00
    An At-Home Treatment That Can Cure Any Virus, Including Coronavirus Originally Conceptualized, circa 1990, by Charles Farr, MD Subsequently Researched and Prescribed by Frank Shallenberger, MD Current Protocol Created by Thomas Levy, MD, JD Although COVID-19, aka coronavirus, is deadly in some select cases, and it can spread rapidly, there is a simple, very inexpensive, and highly effective treatment that can treat and rapidly resolve coronavirus and virtually any other respiratory virus. While different individuals can be expected to have variable degrees of positive response, this intervention can be anticipated to eliminate eventual fatal disease outcomes in all but the most advanced cases. As I hope you will eventually experience, the treatment works for all acute viral infections, and especially well for flu viruses of any variety. In fact, although we are constantly conditioned to not believe in anything “too good to be true,” you will never have to worry about getting a cold or the flu again because you can cure it on your own. The key ingredient in this treatment is common household 3% hydrogen peroxide, and this is the same substance that can be purchased in a 32-ounce plastic bottle at Walmart, for 88 cents, or at Walgreens for under a $1.00. Perhaps you have never heard of hydrogen peroxide therapy, but since the treatment was first championed by Dr. Charles Farr in about 1990, thousands of doctors have used this therapy for decades to conquer infections in many thousands of patients throughout the world. How and Why Hydrogen Peroxide Works Because hydrogen peroxide consists of a water molecule (H2O) with an extra oxygen atom (H2O2), it is this extra oxygen atom that makes it so deadly for viruses.

  • North of England Guidance for Long Acting Antipsychotic Injections July 17
    Guidance on the Use of Antipsychotic Long-acting Injections in North of England (TEWV version) This guidance aims to inform and support prescribers within the three mental health service providers in the north of England in the cost-effective use of antipsychotic long-acting injections. Long-acting or “depot” injections are a useful and well-established form of administering antipsychotics in the management of schizophrenia and other psychoses. The introduction of long-acting formulations of second-generation (atypical) antipsychotics has created an additional pressure on drug budgets in mental health services, which may be justified if their use results in reduced hospital admissions, shortened length of stay and improved quality of life compared with the first generation (typical) agents. Advantages of long-acting / depot injections Assured compliance with antipsychotic treatment Increased bioavailability (less first-pass metabolism) Steady plasma levels compared to oral medication Reduction in relapse rate, severity of relapse and rehospitalisation Stable therapeutic effects Better downward titration to minimise side-effects There is some evidence that long-acting injections cause less brain tissue loss and deterioration (CATIE study1) Disadvantages of long-acting / depot injections Treatment cannot be stopped quickly if severe side-effects develop (dystonia, EPSE, NMS) Perception by the patient of “being controlled”, losing control over their treatment, or possibly being punished. Pain at the site of injection, lasting possibly 10 days Tissue necrosis - over time hard plaques may form, which will reduce the ease of administration and the efficacy of the injection as well as causing discomfort. Loss of dignity with the gluteal route Over and above these factors, NICE2 recommend that consideration should be given to offering a depot / long-acting injectable antipsychotic to people with psychosis or schizophrenia who express a preference for such treatment after an acute episode.
