AbstractThe modalities of an inhaled treatment depends on the characteristics of the aerosol, on the age of the child, and mainly on the inhalatory system. Before the age of 8 years, the pressurised metered dose inhaler must be used together with a spacer device. Above this age, the use of a breath-actuated inhaler or of a dry powder inhaler can be proposed. Demonstration and educational instructions will increase the probability of compliance and efficiency of the treatment.
