Aerosol Drug Delivery to the Lungs with Aerogen During Non-Invasive Ventilation: Healthy Subjects

(Galindo-Filho VC, Ramos ME, Rattes CS, et al. 2015)

A crossover study involving 10 healthy subjects randomly assigned to both treatment arms.

Group 1: NIV + Aerogen

Group 2: NIV + jet Nebulizer

The primary outcome was radioaerosol inhaled into the lungs.

~4x more medication was delivered to the lungs using Aerogen during Non-Invasive Ventilation compared to a jet Nebulizer in healthy subjects.
