Predictors of proper inhaler technique and asthma control in pediatric patients with asthma.

abstract：:We compared the performance of selected ultrasonic and jet nebulizers when aerosolizing several antibiotic formulations to determine optimum combinations for delivery of a respirable antibiotic aerosol. Three ultrasonic devices were tested: the UltraNeb 99/100, the UltraAIR and the Aerosonic. The reusable jet nebulize...
