The CombiHaler® is 100% designed and manufactured in France. CombiHaler® spacer for mechanical ventilation and critical care (ICU) enables the use of both a vibrating mesh nebuliser such as Aerogen®, and a pMDI at the same time.
Specifications of the spacer CombiHaler®
CombiHaler® is a device aimed to improve respiratory drug deposition for ventilated patients in critical care (ICU). It was designed to enable the use of a pMDI and an Aerogen® together.
Description of the device and its intended use
CombiHaler® is a spacer designed to be integrated on a breathing device circuit in invasive or non-invasive ventilation. It enables the connection of a pMDI and/or an Aerogen® Pro or an Aerogen® Solo without intervention on circuit.
CombiHaler® is intended to administer drugs by both nebulizer and pressurized metered dose inhaler (pMDI). It limits in particular the impaction deposit or the substance in the spacer.
The CombiHaler® spacer is single use only and is meant to be used in hospital, in intensive care services or for home care.
Who is it for ?
It is intended for patients suffering from Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), asthma or chronic obstructive respiratory insufficiency in pulmonology, critical care or operating suite.
How does the CombiHaler® spacer work ?
The spacer is meant to be crossed by gas flows in a circuit of a device for mechanical ventilation.
CombiHaler® has four openings leading to its inside volume. The CombiHaler® spacer has two openings meant to be connected to the respirator circuit: one openings is meant for the way in of the gas flow and the other one is meant for the way out of the gas flow.
