Do neonatal near miss approach in the 2005 WHO Global Survey Brazil?
The near miss concept and indicators provided information that could be useful to evaluate the quality of care and set priorities for further assessments and health care improvement for newborn infants.
Following conclusions for an efficient nebulization delivery of drugs with surface activity with respect to optimal delivery device can be made. Generally, ultrasonic devices produce higher drug output rates within shorter periods of time as compared to jet and vibrating membrane nebulizers. Accordingly, prescription instructions have to be adjusted to these findings. The study also emphasizes that aqueous nebulizer solutions should preferably be prescribed in conjunction with a specific nebulizer which has been tested in vitro and been used in in vivo studies, rather than to let patients choose their delivery device themselves.
