It is known that optimal deposition of powder particles in This invention relates to a dry powder inhaler system for the lung occurs when the particle diameter is under 10 dispensing a clinically effective dose of a pharmaceutically microns, Since particles having a diameter above this range active compound. 15 are preferentially deposited in the mouth and throat. However, such fine powder will typically tend either to cling BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION to the sides of its container, or to clump, So that a high Inhalable drugs are commonly used in the treatment of proportion of the powder takes the form of large, loosely diseases of the airways, Such as rhinitis, asthma, and chronic Structured agglomerates of a size much larger than 10 bronchitis. Examples of Such drugs include microns, and only a Small percentage of the powder particles B2-adrenoreceptor agonists Such as Salbutamol, terbutaline, remain within the primary particle diameter range. Certain rimiterol, fenoterol, reproterol, adrenaline, pirbuterol, new types of dry powder inhalers, including those described isoprenaline, orciprenaline, bitolterol, Salmeterol, in European Patent Nos. 0237 507 and 69 715 (e.g., the formoterol, clenbuterol, procaterol, broXaterol, picumeterol, TURBUHALER(R), are able to facilitate the delivery of a TA-2005, mabuterol and the like, and their pharmacologi 25 pharmaceutical powder in which a high proportion of the cally acceptable esters and Salts, anticholinergic bronchodi dispensed particles are of diameter in the desired range.

  • Spirometry Protocol and Software Training Handout
    SPIROMETRY PROTOCOL AND SOFTWARE TRAINING HANDOUT Spirometry Protocol Key Points in Performing Spirometry ▪ Always demonstrate the maneuver ▪ Prompt the participant to BLAST out the air ▪ Continue by having the participant PUSH out the air ▪ Continue until the balloon bursts or at least six seconds Getting ready to do Spirometry Subjects will be instructed to not use any bronchodilator medicines for at least 4 hours prior to the appointment (in the case of salmeterol [Serevent] or Fomoterol (foradil)or Tritoprium (Spiriva) avoid for 12 hours prior to the test). Bronchodilator medicines include: Short acting bronchodilators Albuterol (ventolin, proventil, airet, volmax tablet) Levalbuterol (xopenex) Metaproterenol (alupent) Pirbuterol (maxair) Terbutaline (brethaire, brethine, bricanyl) Isoetharine (bronkosol) Ipratropium (atrovent) Ipratropium and albuterol combination (Combivent) Isoproteranol (isuprel) Primatine 1 CHW Educational Protocols – Spirometry Protocol and Software Training Handout Bitolterol (tornalate) Long acting bronchodilator Salmeterol (serevent) Fomoterol (foradil) Tritoprium (Spiriva) Bronchodilators should be avoided because they can affect the spirometry results. If the patient is having symptoms from asthma and needs to use the medicine, ask that the medicine be used 4 hours before the visit, so that the next dose is due during the visit. Patients can then do the spirometry and then the patient can take the medicine after the test is completed. When scheduling the follow-up spirometry visit, if at all possible, try to make the visit at the same time as the initial baseline visit. 1. Preparing the Computer 1. Check to see if the time and date on the lower right hand corner is current. If the date and time is NOT, the spirometer will NOT sync with the computer or the Easy One software.
