Video Inhaler Part 1 Versi 3
Summary
TLDRThis video discusses inhalation therapy, emphasizing its advantages for delivering drugs directly to the lungs. It outlines the six key requirements for an ideal inhaler and introduces four common types: nebulizers, Respimat soft mist inhalers, metered-dose inhalers (MDIs), and dry powder inhalers (DPIs). The focus is on nebulizers and Respimat inhalers, highlighting their mechanisms, advantages, and proper usage. While nebulizers are effective and easy to use, they lack portability, making them unsuitable for chronic management. In contrast, Respimat inhalers offer improved drug delivery but require good coordination from the user. The video sets the stage for further exploration of MDIs and DPIs in the next installment.
Takeaways
- đ Inhalation therapy delivers drugs directly to the lungs, offering rapid action and better efficacy than systemic therapies.
- đĄ An ideal inhaler should be effective, efficient, engaging, error-tolerant, easy to teach, and easy to switch.
- đŹïž There are four main types of inhalers: nebulizers, soft mist inhalers (Resmat), metered dose inhalers (MDI), and dry powder inhalers (DPI).
- đ Nebulizers convert liquid medications into aerosols and are typically used in hospitals due to their larger size and continuous aerosol delivery.
- đ Jet nebulizers, the most commonly used type, aerosolize during both inhalation and exhalation but have drawbacks like significant drug loss during exhalation.
- âïž The three types of nebulizers include jet, ultrasonic, and mesh nebulizers, each with different mechanisms for aerosol generation.
- đ Resmat soft mist inhalers are portable, propellant-free, and deliver medication more effectively with a high fraction of fine particles.
- đïž Resmat inhalers have a dose indicator and a locking mechanism, ensuring easy tracking of medication use.
- đ The preparation and use of nebulizers involve specific steps to ensure proper operation and cleanliness after treatment.
- đ Coordination is required when using the Resmat inhaler, as patients must inhale deeply while pressing the dose release button.
Q & A
What is inhalation therapy and why is it preferred?
-Inhalation therapy is a delivery method for medications that need to be administered directly to the lungs. It offers a more rapid onset of action, requires smaller doses, and has better efficacy compared to systemic therapies.
What are the six requirements for an ideal inhaler?
-The six requirements for an ideal inhaler are effectiveness, efficiency, engaging, error tolerance, ease of teaching, and ease of switching.
What are the four commonly used types of inhalers?
-The four commonly used types of inhalers are nebulizers, Respimat soft mist inhalers, metered-dose inhalers (MDI), and dry powder inhalers (DPI).
What is the function of nebulizers in inhalation therapy?
-Nebulizers convert liquid solutions or suspensions into aerosols that target the lower respiratory tract, requiring minimal patient cooperation and are primarily used in hospital settings.
What are the three types of nebulizers mentioned?
-The three types of nebulizers are jet nebulizers, ultrasonic nebulizers, and mesh nebulizers, each differing in how they generate aerosol.
What distinguishes jet nebulizers from other nebulizer types?
-Jet nebulizers aerosolize medication during both inhalation and exhalation and require a breath hold for optimal drug deposition, making them effective but less portable and harder to clean.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of using nebulizers?
-Advantages of nebulizers include their affordability, ease of use, and effectiveness in delivering drugs. Disadvantages include their limited portability, difficult cleaning process, and the need for a compressed air source.
What is a Respimat soft mist inhaler and how does it function?
-The Respimat soft mist inhaler is a multi-dose, propellant-free inhaler that produces slow-moving aerosols, allowing for better lung drug deposition and lower doses required compared to MDIs and DPIs.
How should a nebulizer be prepared for use?
-To prepare a nebulizer, ensure the power switch is off, add the prescribed medication to the medication cup, assemble the parts correctly, attach the desired inhalation accessory, and then turn on the machine to begin treatment.
What is the importance of priming a Respimat inhaler before first use?
-Priming a Respimat inhaler ensures that the dose release mechanism is activated and delivers the correct amount of medication, which is critical for effective treatment.
