Rossmax Aero Spacer with Adult Mask 5 Years +

Patients of all ages who use a standard metered-dose inhaler (MDI), commonly known as an asthma pump, may benefit from using a Rossmax Aero Spacer. The spacer makes it easier to inhale medication and can help improve how effectively the medication is delivered to the lungs.

1) Inhaling the medication from the MDI (asthma pump) is much easier, there is no need to try to coordinate breathing in at the exact time the MDI is pressed, which is something babies, children and many adults alike struggle to do. It is very common for asthma patients to use the incorrect inhaling technique with their MDI, and be unaware of this. The patient can simply breathe a few normal breaths whilst the mask is applied to their mouth/ nose. The one-way valve ensures the medication is held in the spacer until the patient breathes it in, and the anti-static walls will prevent the medication from sticking to the walls of the spacer.

2) The use of a Rossmax Aerospacer increases the effectiveness of the medication by up to 70 percent. (Asthma & Respiratory Foundation New Zealand) The medication from the MDI is more likely to reach the lungs as it is released slower over a few breaths. When all the medication is released at one time, a large amount of it may remain in the mouth and throat, rather than the lungs. The spacer helps deliver the medicine directly into the lungs, instead of the mouth and throat.

Please note

The Rossmax Aero Spacer has one-way valves that help control the direction of airflow. When you breathe in, the valve allows you to inhale the medication from the spacer. When you breathe out, the valve allows the exhaled air to escape. The valves are designed to move with your breathing, so you should not expect large or dramatic movements. Their purpose is to direct airflow correctly, not to move significantly.
