What is a nebulizer?

A nebulizer is a drug delivery machine which converts liquid medicine into aerosol droplets that can easily be inhaled through a mouthpiece or mask.

Nebulizers are primarily used in the treatment of asthma, COPD, and other breathing problems. However, it is also used for severe cases of nasal and chest congestion as it provides immediate relief by the opening of airways.

Why choose home nebulization as part of your treatment?

- Delivers medication directly to where it is needed.
- Direct action of the drug on the target organ.
- Immediate effect after inhalation.
- Same effects as oral medication, but with lower dosage.
- Minimisation of possible systemic adverse effect risks.
- Patients can inhale medication with no coordination¹needed.
- Possible to mix different medications from prescription².
- Some devices can be used for treating upper and lower airway diseases with one device.

What are the different types of nebulizers?

Different Types Of Nebulizers for various uses

1. Compressor Nebulizer

Benefits

- Easy to use, also suitable for children
- Almost all types of medication is supported
- Very reliable
- Cost-effective

Disadvantages

- Bulky
- Cleaning of many parts
- Can be noisy
- Require power outlet

2. Mesh Nebulizers

Benefits

- Portable
- Silent
- Operates at all angles
- Simple one-button operation

Disadvantages

- Relative high costs
- Thorough cleaning is required, especially the mesh element

3. Ultrasonic Nebulizers

Benefits

- Quiet and easy operation
- High output (‘nebulization rate’) ~ up to 10 times as compared to Compressor Nebulizer

Disadvantages

- More expensive than a Compressor Nebulizer
- Not possible to nebulize suspensions (e.g. Pulmicort) and medications with higher viscosity
- Some medications (e.g. antibiotics), may change in quality, due to high ultrasonic energy
- Requires AC power
- In addition to the medication, water is required for cooling

Can distilled water or purified water be used for nebulization?

Distilled water or purified water cannot be used alone as a drug solution for nebulization.

What are the key features of a nebulizer?

Key Features Of A Nebulizer

1. Median Mass Aerodynamic Diameter (MMAD µm)

Nebulizers create aerosol droplets with a range of particle size diameters, and MMAD is the diameter that divides the mass of an aerosol in half. MMAD is one of the recommended parameter from European Respiratory Society for measuring nebulizer performance.

Upper Airways:

Chronic – Allergic Rhinitis (Hay Fever)

Infections – Rhinitis (Common Cold), Sinusitis, Laryngitis

Lower Airways

Chronic – Asthma, COPD

Infections – Bronchitis, Bronchiolitis, Pneumonia

2. Speed

Higher nebulization rate = Shorter treatment time

Nebulization rate is the amount of nebulized medication in ml coming out of the nebulizer per minute.

3. Aerosol Output

Amount of medication deposited in the lungs. It is measured using a breath simulator pump connected to a filter (chemical analysis of NaF in the filter)

It is a key parameter of Nebulizer efficiency.

4. Noise Level

Babies and children may be fearful of the noise generated by compressor type nebulizers therefore a mesh or ultrasonic nebulizer may be more ideal.

5. Portability

Recommended for cases where on the go treatment is needed.

What to look for when choosing a nebulizer?

1. Who will be using the nebulizer?

Adults or Babies or Children

2. What is the condition?

Upper Airways or Lower Airways
Depending on the treatment area, the nebulizer should produce partical size to reach the targeted organ.

3. Where will the nebulizer be used?

At Home or On-The-Go
Compact and lighter nebulizers make it easy to have discreet treatments anywhere.
