Detecting Errors In Using Metered Dose Inhalers (MDI) Among Asthma And Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Patients

Baylor College of Medicine·interventional·Posted May 19, 2015·Updated Oct 9, 2020

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Education on Use of MDI for Asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. Completed, enrolled 23 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) and Dry Powdered Inhaler (DPI) are the two most common devices used to deliver medicine in conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It is well-known that most patients do not use correct technique when using a metered dose inhaler. This leads to poor control of their disease. This study is being done so the investigators can record the patient using the metered dose inhaler before and after a short teaching session. This information will be fed into an invitro system (device) to allow the researchers to study the effect of error on drug delivery. The device being used is the Rice R3 electronic flowmeter.
