Discover our selection of inhalation chambers, essential medical devices for improving the effectiveness of your respiratory treatment with metered-dose inhalers. Suitable for adults, children and infants, our inhalation chambers facilitate theadministration of medication forasthma, bronchitis and other respiratory diseases.
Inhalation Chamber: For Optimal Delivery of Your Respiratory Treatment
The correct use of metered-dose inhalers (MDIs or inhalers) is crucial for the effective management of respiratory diseases such as asthma or bronchitis. The inhalation chamber is a medical device designed to facilitate the delivery of aerosolized medications and improve their deposition in the lungs. At Horizane Health, we understand the importance of effective respiratory treatment. That's why we offer quality inhalation chambers, intended to optimize the effectiveness of your treatment and simplify its daily use, whether for an adult, a child, or an infant.
Why Use an Inhalation Chamber?
An inhalation chamber, also known as a spacer, plays an essential role in optimizing treatments with MDIs. It helps overcome the hand-mouth coordination difficulties often encountered with standard inhalers, thus ensuring that the correct dose of medication reaches the lungs. This is particularly important for young children, infants, the elderly, or anyone who has difficulty using an MDI alone. Our models are designed to:
- Improve pulmonary deposition: By reducing the speed of medication particles and decreasing their impaction in the mouth and throat, the inhalation chamber increases the amount of active ingredient delivered to the lower airways.
- Reduce local side effects: Less medication deposited in the mouth means a lower risk of irritation or local adverse effects (e.g., oral thrush with inhaled corticosteroids).
- Facilitate coordination: It allows the patient to breathe normally after actuating the MDI, eliminating the need for perfectly synchronized inhalation.
- Adapt to all ages: We offer models with different sized masks (infant, child, adult) or with a mouthpiece, for a comfortable fit and optimal seal, ensuring the effectiveness of the respiratory treatment.
Choosing a Horizane inhalation chamber means opting for a reliable medical device, contributing to better management of your or your child's respiratory health.
