Unlocking the Secrets to Maximize Pulmonary Medications Jason Elder BS, RRT/RCP Respiratory Therapy Director of Clinical Education Catawba Valley Community College

Disclosures I am a married. I am a parent. Monetarily I have none to make.

Objectives Understand the role of various pulmonary medications. Understand how to different medications work on the body. Understand the differences in the delivery devices. Understand when to use the medication types and device types for each patient. Understand the need for proper education in regards to medications within your setting.

Are you paying attention?

Basics Review Two main systems that affect us Sympathetic Nervous System (Fight or Flight) Parasympathetic Nervous System (Rest and Digest) Medications can work to stimulate a system or to suppress a system. These 2 systems work in tandem so effects can be caused from either side.

Basic Review: Receptors Alpha receptors Found in smooth muscle of blood vessels Causes vasoconstriction Beta receptors: Beta1 Found in Cardiac muscle Stimulation = chronotropic, dromotropic & inotropic actions Beta2 Found within smooth muscles of the airways and certain blood vessels Stimulation = vasodilation and bronchdilation

Tracheobronchial Tree 16 generations of conducting airways starting with Gereation 0 – trachea 1 – Main stem 2 – Lobar Bronchi 3 – Segmental Bronchi 4-9 – Subsegmental bronchi 10-15 – Bronchioles 16-19 – Terminal bronioles Generations 20-28 – beginning of gas exchanging function (respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, alveolar sacs)

Particle Size and Deposition Nose - >10 microns Mouth - >15 microns First 6 generations of the airway – 5-10 microns. Last 5-6 generations – 1-5 microns

Size Can Be an Issue Micron – one millionth of a meter. Most aerosol generators produce particles in the 1-5 micron range. <0.5 microns are so stable they may be exhaled out. Neb design, and gas flow rates affect particle size. Patients should be careful taking equipment home from the hospital because their home units may not produce sufficient flow/drive pressure. Hospital based equipment is designed to run on specific FLOW RATES not pressures.

Inhalation Route Pros and Cons Quick acting Minimizes systemic absorption Less dosage of some drugs Cons: Technique, compliance, equipment, maintenance

Common Types of Medications Bronchodilators Beta Adrenergic Short Acting (Albuterol, Xopenex) Long Acting (Formoterol, Arformoterol, Serevent) Anticholinergics (Atrovent, Spiriva) Corticosteroids (Budesonide, Fluticisone) Combination Medications (Advair, Symbicort, Dulera, Breo)

Technical Aspects Stability – Tendency of the aerosol to remain in suspension. Want the drug to rain out in the lungs, 10 second breath hold. Penetration – Size of particles, patient breathing pattern, disease state. Deposition – Where the particles fall out of suspension. Inertial impaction – When the particle hits something, it will impact.

Types of Devices Nebulizer Pros: Efficient Versatile Cons: Not very portable Requires power source (gas or electric) Patient must be able to take a good breath with a hold (5-10 seconds) Efficient - Gives a large dose of medication, Steady dose delivery, Versatile - Can give a large variety of medications from the same device

Types of Devices Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) Pros: Convenient Efficient Versatile Cons: Propellant Based (HFA, Respimat) Patient must be able to follow directions Should ALWAYS be used with a Spacer Convenient - Small, Portable, able to be used in a variety of situations Efficient - Provides proper particle size, works well with most patients Versatile - Used in a large variety of different medications and can support many different medication types. Propellant based - Propellants don’t like extreme temperature changes

Types of Devices Dry Powder Inhalers (DPI) Pros: Convenient Versatile Cons: Maintenance use only Patient must be able to follow directions Patient must be able to generate > 50LPM flow Convenient - Small, Portable , Keeps Track of Doses Remaining, No Timing Necessary Versatile - Can be used in diverse environments, Can be used for various medications/medication types.

Education and Take Away Points Education is one of the most important factors with ANY medication and unfortunately is also one of the largest items missing. We have the privilege of being the key that fits this lock. We see the patients in a setting that allows us the the unique opportunity to be that key. Knowing and understanding this information and these devices allows us to be the difference to patients.

We help put the pieces together
