In Vitro Assessment of a Breath-synchronized Vibrating Mesh Nebulizer During Non Invasive Ventilation (Synchro-Neb)

June 5, 2015 updated by: Jean-Bernard Michotte, University Hospital St Luc, Brussels

In Vitro Comparison of Continuous and Breath-synchronized Vibrating Mesh Nebulizer During Non Invasive Ventilation: Analysis of Inhaled and Lost Doses.

Using an adult lung bench model of non invasive ventilation, the aim of the study is to compare an experimental system of breath-synchronized vibrating mesh nebulizer to a conventional vibrating mesh nebulizer during non invasive ventilation in terms of inhaled and lost doses.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: Breath-actuated vibrating mesh nebulizer
500 mg/4 mL of Amikacin solution delivered with an experimental breath-actuated vibrating mesh nebulizer associated with a single limb circuit ventilator.
500 mg/4 mL Amikacin nebulized using vibrating mesh nebulizer associated with a single limb bilevel ventilator. The nebulizations are considered as finished when there is no visible evidence of nebulization for a period of 30 seconds. The NIV is set with an IPAP of 15 cmH2O and EPAP of 5 cmH2O. The lung model is simulated with a respiratory rate of 15 cycles/minute
Other Names:
  • Amikacine sulfate
500 mg/4 mL Amikacin nebulized using vibrating mesh nebulizer associated with a single limb bilevel ventilator. The nebulizations are considered as finished when there is no visible evidence of nebulization for a period of 30 seconds. The NIV is set with an IPAP of 15 cmH2O and EPAP of 5 cmH2O. The lung model is simulated with a respiratory rate of 25 cycles/minute
Other Names:
  • Amikacine sulfate
EXPERIMENTAL: Conventional vibrating mesh nebulizer
500 mg/4 mL of Amikacin solution delivered with a conventional vibrating mesh nebulizer (in continuous mode) associated with a single limb circuit ventilator.
500 mg/4 mL Amikacin nebulized using vibrating mesh nebulizer associated with a single limb bilevel ventilator. The nebulizations are considered as finished when there is no visible evidence of nebulization for a period of 30 seconds. The NIV is set with an IPAP of 15 cmH2O and EPAP of 5 cmH2O. The lung model is simulated with a respiratory rate of 15 cycles/minute
