When it comes to managing respiratory conditions in infants, ensuring that medication reaches their lungs effectively is paramount. The Aerochamber Plus Infant Device & Mask is specifically engineered to address this challenge, providing a reliable solution for parents and carers.
Why Choose Aerochamber Plus for Infants?
Infants often find it difficult to coordinate their breathing with an inhaler's puff. This can lead to medication being wasted or not reaching the lungs properly. The Aerochamber Plus Infant Device & Mask solves this by:
- Optimising Delivery: It holds the medication in a chamber, allowing your child to inhale at their own pace, ensuring more medication reaches their lungs and less settles in their mouth or throat.
- Reducing Side Effects: By improving delivery, it minimises the amount of medication deposited in the mouth and throat, potentially reducing local side effects.
- Ease of Use: The comfortable, soft mask creates a secure seal over the child's nose and mouth, simplifying the administration process for parents.
- Clear Valve: Features a flow-vu indicator that moves as your child inhales, providing visual confirmation that they are using the device correctly.
This device is compatible with most pressurised (aerosol) inhalers and is a vital component of effective asthma management and other respiratory issues in young children. For advice on managing symptoms like coughs or other childhood illnesses, explore our guides.
How it Works
Simply attach your child's metered dose inhaler to one end of the Aerochamber Plus Infant Device & Mask. Place the mask gently but firmly over your infant's nose and mouth, ensuring a good seal. Then, press the inhaler to release a puff of medication into the chamber. Your child can then breathe normally through the mask, inhaling the medication safely and effectively.
