Archives of Internal Medicine, 1985Despite initial fears associated with its safety, aerosol administration by metered dose inhaler (MDI) is rapidly becoming the preferred form of bronchodilator therapy, as it has a number of advantages over oral agents. To enhance aerosol delivery and bronchodilator response, several important steps in the optimal use of an MDI have been characterized.

According to the major scientific respiratory societies, the response to bronchodilator agents is assessed by using the forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and the forced vital capacity (FVC) [1, 2]. These indexes are measured with relatively cheap instruments, such as spirometers or pneumotachographs, during a forced expiratory maneuver initiated ...
