A Novel Continuous Powder Aerosolizer (CPA) for Inhalative Administration of Highly Concentrated Recombinant Surfactant Protein-C (rSP-C) Surfactant to Preterm Neonates

Abstract

The device with its continuous high-concentration delivery is promising for noninvasive delivery of surfactant aerosol to neonates and has the potential for becoming a versatile disperser platform closing the gap between continuously operating nebulizers and discontinuously operating dry powder inhaler devices.
