Clinical aerosols II. Therapeutic aerosols

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1982
The current uses of clinical aerosols such as water, saline, mucolytics, bronchodilators, cromolyn sodium, corticosteroids, and antimicrobials have been reviewed. The benefits of water, saline, and detergent aerosols continue to be surrounded by uncertainty and controversy.

Aerosols and Climate

Science, 1974
To determine the effects of atmospheric aerosols on the radiative heating of the earth-atmosphere system, the radiative transfer equation is solved analytically in the two-stream approximation. It is found that the sign of the heating is independent of optical thickness of an aerosol layer and the amount of heating approaches a finite limit with ...

Aerosol medications

Respiratory Care Clinics, 2002
Aerosol medications are used commonly in mechanically ventilated patients. Several classes of drugs with different properties and indications may be given by inhalation. In all cases, inhaled therapy's main advantage over the systemic route is that, for a given therapeutic response, the drug dose is several-fold lower, whereas systemic absorption is ...

Aerosols and Aerosol Propellants in Asthma

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1971
To the Editor.— A recent issue ofThe Journal( 214: 81, 1970) carried both a report of a study by Taylor and Harris and an editorial entitled "Cardiac Toxicity of Aerosol Propellants." The authors attempt the conclusion that the fluorinated hydrocarbon propellants used in bronchodilator aerosols are related to a claimed increase in sudden, unexpected ...

Aerosols and devices

Respiratory Care Clinics of North America, 2001
The success of aerosol therapy depends upon the delivery of ample amounts of the drug to appropriate sites in the lung with minimal side effects. Successful aerosol therapy delivery systems must provide sufficient respirable particles or droplets, with minimal loss of the drug. Ultimately, the patient must be able to use the device easily, maintain it,

Atmospheric Aerosols

Science, 1969
Measurements of particle counts and size distributions of atmospheric aerosols have been made at various locations by use of an instrumented aircraft. The number of atmospheric particulates is related to the visibility.

Aerosols in Bronchiolitis

Journal of Aerosol Medicine, 2002
Bronchiolitis is a common illness of the lower respiratory tract affecting infants that has considerable short and long-term morbidity and occasional mortality. It is the commonest cause of hospitalization for respiratory infection in early childhood, and the seasonal nature of the illness places considerable strain on health care resources during the ...

Aerosolized surfactants

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 2007
To present existing data on the potential use of aerosolized surfactants for treatment of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome in the era of noninvasive ventilatory support.Current surfactant therapy requires endotracheal intubation and application of positive pressure ventilation.
