AeroChamber Plus Z Stat Anti-Static Valved Holding Chamber

Description

AeroChamber Plus® Z Stat® Anti-Static Valved Holding Chamber (aVHC) with Mouthpiece, is an aerosol delivery device designed to work with a Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) to maximize delivery of medication to lungs, with minimal waste or deposits on the throat and tongue. The chamber holds any remaining small particles not inhaled the first time, so patients with low PEFs can take more than one breath per puff of medicine administered. to make respiratory medications even more effective.

Using an the AeroChamber Plus® Z Stat aVHC maximizes delivery of medication to the lungs by separating small medication particles from large. As the patient inhales, the smaller particles float out of the chamber's one-way valve into the respiratory tract where they easily reach areas of the lungs that need it most. The Z Stat chamber holds any remaining small particles not inhaled the first time, which allows the patient to take more than one breath per puff of medicine administered. This is especially helpful for those who cannot achieve a high peak expiratory flow (PEF), and assures the maximum amount of prescribed medicine gets to the lungs for optimum benefit. AeroChamber Plus® also features FLOWSIGnal® Whistle to alert if you're inhaling too fast. encouraging proper breathing technique when transitioning from a mask to a mouthpiece.
