ABSTRACT:
The use of a large ambulatory manual breathing unit in combination with a metered dose medication inhaler for delivering medication to a patient, who is either breathing spontaneously or non-spontaneously. The large bag or reservoir of the breathing unit is used to insure minimization of size and homogeneous disbursement of the particles of medication. For non-spontaneous patient breathing, the reservoir's contents are disbursed into the patient by manually or mechanically squeezing the bag, after which the bag returns to its original shape and volume. At one or the other end of the bag, a typical metered dose inhalator is mounted in a manner to disburse the medication into the bag, and directly in line therewith, through an adaptor. The metered dose inhaler collar, into which the inhaler fits, when the inhaler is not in use, is capped.
