94% of healthcare professionals inhale too fast when demonstrating how to use a standard Pressurised Metered Dose Inhaler (pMDI). Inhaling too fast means only half the dose reaches the lungs.

The In-Check Flo-Tone Inhaler Trainer from Clement Clarke is a simple solution to the co-ordination difficulties that many patients face when using an inhaler.

The Flo-Tone attaches to a standard pMDI (the patient's own device or a placebo), and emits an audible signal to indicate that the correct inhalation rate. The Flo-Tone can be cleaned easily using warm soap and water and left to dry.

The pMDI is a widely used popular inhaler format, yet many patients do not use their inhalers correctly due to a range of factors, including:

• Inhaling too rapidly
• Inability to co-ordinate actuation correctly

The need to get patients to inhale correctly is now widely recognised. There are many dedicated sessions at respiratory conferences. The publication of the ERS/ISAM guidelines has highlighted this problem, and the In-Check Flo-Tone is the ideal solution.

Features:

• Fits any standard pMDI
• Emits an audible tone when correct inhalation is achieved
• Can be cleaned with soap and water
