Trudell Medical International AeroChamber Plus Quick Start Manual

Valved Holding Chamber
INTENDED USE
This chamber is intended to be used by patients who
are prescribed a metered dose inhaler to deliver the
aerosol medication from the inhaler to your lungs.
The clinical benefit of chambers is to improve the
coordination of inhaling your medication. This is
achieved by holding the medication, allowing you
more time to inhale while filtering out the larger
particles that would not reach your lungs.
If you have any concerns regarding the use of the
chamber or its delivery of your inhaler medication,
please consult a healthcare professional.
