Do pediatric healthcare providers know how to use metered dose inhaler plus spacer devices?
We tested whether health practitioners correctly used MDI-spacer devices. Of 122 subjects, 89% had instructed a patient on using a spacer. Whilst performance with the Aerochamber was the best, only 3% correctly demonstrated all the steps for that device.
