Download or read book Pulmonary Drug Delivery written by Ali Nokhodchi and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-06-01 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drug therapy via inhalation route is at the cutting edge of modern drug delivery research. There has been significant progress on the understanding of drug therapy via inhalation products. However, there are still problems associated with their formulation design, including the interaction between the active pharmaceutical ingredient(s) (APIs), excipients and devices. This book seeks to cover some of the most pertinent issues and challenges of such formulation design associated with industrial production and desirable clinical outcome. The chapter topics have been selected with a view to integrating the factors that require consideration in the selection and design of device and formulation components which impact upon patient usability and clinical effectiveness. The challenges involved with the delivery of macromolecules by inhalation to both adult and pediatric patients are also covered. Written by leading international experts from both academia and industry, the book will help readers (formulation design scientists, researchers and post-graduate and specialized undergraduate students) develop a deep understanding of key aspects of inhalation formulations as well as detail ongoing challenges and advances associated with their development.

Download or read book Optimization of Aerosol Drug Delivery written by Leon Gradon and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003-11-30 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aerosol therapy has significantly improved the treatment of a variety of respiratory diseases. Besides the treatment of respiratory diseases there is currently also a great interest to use the lungs as a portal to introduce drugs for systemic therapy. The success of therapy with the application of aerosolized medicaments depends on the possibility to deliver the proper amount of drug to the appropriate sites in the respiratory system, thus limiting the side effects to a minimum. Aerosolized delivery of drugs to the lung is optimized if, for a given chemical composition of a medicine, the target of deposition and the required mass of drug to be deposited are precisely defined. The next step is the specification of the number of respirable particles or droplets, to be generated by appropriate devices. Another very important factor for successful aerosol therapy is the condition of the patient coupled with his or her inhalation technique.

Download or read book Practical Handbook of Nebulizer Therapy written by Boe Jacob and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2003-12-12 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In research and in clinical practice, the use of nebulizers is often an inconsistent undertaking. Many physicians lack a full understanding of the basic scientific principles of nebulizer therapy, and results published from many clinical studies are impossible to reproduce due to variations in nebulizer systems and usage. In an effort to standardize nebulizer treatment in clinical practice, Practical Handbook of Nebulizer Therapy provides hands-on guidance for frontline healthcare professionals Written for hospital doctors, GPs, nurses, respiratory physiotherapists, and respiratory technicians, this book includes chapters by expert physicians in respiratory medicine, as well as representatives from nebulizer equipment manufacturers and the pharmaceutical industry. The text focuses on three main areas: technical information, including theory, science, and quality control; clinical applications, including chapters on the use of these devices in individual conditions; and practical considerations such as maintenance, choice of device, and education. With a user-friendly format that allows quick access to specific aspects of nebulizer treatment, this book is a convenient reference for respiratory healthcare professionals.

Download or read book Mosby s Respiratory Care Equipment written by Jimmy M. Cairo and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The leading resource for nearly 25 years, this new edition thoroughly and systematically covers the entire spectrum of equipment, from the most basic to the most sophisticated. It explores the most current equipment while also retaining some of the older equipment either within the text or on the accompanying website. In addition to providing technical descriptions, the 7th edition of Mosby's Respiratory Care Equipment maintains a clinical focus with discussions of how to select modes, set parameters, monitor the equipment, and respond to alarms. Various respiratory therapy techniques, such as diagnostic sleep studies, are included as well. Features like the "how-to" focus of the mechanical ventilator discussion, Clinical Practical Guideline excerpts, Clinical Rounds boxes, and Internet resources set this book apart. Excerpts of Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) - statements of care developed by the American Association for Respiratory Care (AARC) - are included to show applications of the equipment to patient care by highlighting indications/contraindications, hazards and complications, assessment of need, assessment of outcome, and monitoring. More relevant historical information is provided in unique Historical Notes boxes that detail the history of respiratory care equipment. The unique clinical approach goes beyond a mere technical description of the various pieces of equipment to help readers identify equipment, understand how it works, and apply this information in clinical practice. Ventilators are organized by application area rather than by manufacturer, making the book even more clinically useful. The Physiology of Sleep chapter (Chapter 15) discusses polysomnography and the effect of sleep and sleep disorders on cardiopulmonary function. A unique, two-color design makes the book more user-friendly and emphasizes special features. Pedagogical features such as chapter outlines, introductions and summaries, learning objectives, and key terms are provided in each chapter to reinforce the material and help students identify important points. All key terms are listed in a glossary at the end of the book so readers can easily find definitions for new terms presented in the text. A new chapter on Cardiovascular Diagnostic Testing highlights areas such as cardiovascular monitoring, ECG, and hemodynamics, explaining equipment as well as the relevant physiology. The chapter on Infection Control is placed earlier in the textbook to better reflect the way most instructors teach the subject. Content on noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) has been added to the chapter on Transport, Home Care, and Alternative Devices (Chapter 14). Coverage of bronchoscopy has been added to the chapter on Airway Management (Chapter 6) so readers can explore the specifics of this important assessment technique. More NBRC-type review questions have been added so that every chapter now contains at least 20 review questions reflecting the types of questions and amount of coverage on the board exams. Critical-thinking questions are included to further reflect the book's clinical focus. More Clinical Rounds (previously entitled Decision Making & Problem-Solving boxes) have been added, containing problems that may be encountered during actual use of equipment. Suggested answers are included in the appendices.
