Comparative Study Controlled Clinical Trial
Deposition of aerosols delivered by nasal route with jet and mesh nebulizers.
To quantify the amount of aerosol deposited in different parts of the airways with a commercially available nasal sonic jet nebulizer (NJN) using a sound effect, and to compare its performance with a new nasal mesh nebulizer (NMN). ⋯ Although the two nebulizers had the same particle size, NMN significantly improved aerosol deposition in nasal cavity and prevents deposition into the lungs.
