In Vitro Performance of Valved Holding Chambers in Paediatric Asthma Controller Therapy
ABSTRACT Aim Research on the drug delivery of inhaled corticosteroids and combination medications via valved holding chambers (VHCs) with children's breathing patterns is limited. We aimed to evaluate the in vitro performance of commercially available VHCs without facemasks under preschooler breathing conditions, focusing on total delivered dose and ...
