Abstract

Aim: In the treatment of obstructive lung diseases, large number of drugs (both bronchodilator and antiinflammatory drugs) have been used by inhalation. Due to the errors made during inhaler drug administration patients either don’t take targeted doses, or even any medication. In the present study we aimed to determine factors affecting the correct use of inhaler devices. Materials and Method: Patients who were followed up in Ümraniye Training and Research Hospital Chest Diseases Department between 01.06.2010- 30.12.2010 for asthma and/or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were retrospectively evaluated. All the patients received inhaler drug treatment previously. The ability to use inhaler drugs and causative factors for improper use were investigated. The study included 751 patients (M/F:254/497). Patients’ age, gender, education level, duration of symptoms and the devices used were achieved from the records. Using skills were evaluated according to the chart prepared by the Turkish Respiratory Society ‘Inhalation Therapies’ Working Study Group. Results: Seventy-four percent of patients were using their drugs correctly. Correct utilization rate was 66,3% for Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) and, it was ranged from 76-81% for Dry Powder Inhaler (DPI) (p=0.030, p60 years old), to be literate or graduated from primary school, duration of symptoms ( 60 years old), to be literate or being graduated from primary school, duration of symptoms (< 3 months) and MDI device use increased the risk by 3, 4,6, 17,5 and 1,8 times respectively. Conclusion: We concluded that in the presence of conditions necessitating the use of inhalers, the devices easy to use should be preferred regarding the age, education level and the skill of the patient. Practical inhaler device training should be given and assessed during follow-up visits.

Özet

Amaç: Obstrüktif akciğer hastalıklarının tedavisinde, bronkodilatör ve antiinflamatuvar ilaçlar çoğunlukla inhalasyon yolu ile kullanılmaktadır. İnhaler ilaç uygulamasında görülen hatalar, hastaların hedeflenen dozlarda ilaç alamamalarına hatta tedavisiz kalmalarına neden olabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada inhaler cihazların doğru kullanımını etkileyen faktörlerin belirlenmesi hedeflenmiştir.Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmamızda 01.06.2010-30.12.2010 tarihleri arasında Ümraniye Eğitim Araştırma Hastanesi Göğüs Hastalıkları polikliniğine başvuran daha önce astım/KOAH tanısıyla inhaler tedavi verilmiş hastaların, retrospektif olarak inhaler ilaç kullanma becerileri değerlendirilerek hatalı kullanıma etkili faktörler araştırıldı. Çalışmaya inhaler cihaz kullanmakta olan 751 hasta (E/K:254/497) alındı. Hastaların yaş, cinsiyet, eğitim durumu, yakınma süresi, kullanılan cihaz bilgileri ve inhaler cihazlarını kullanma yöntemleri kayıtlardan elde edildi. Kullanım becerileri Türkiye Solunum Araştırmaları Derneği ‘İnhalasyon Tedavileri’ Çalışma Grubunun hazırladığı inhaler ilaç kullanma beceri çizelgesine göre değerlendirildi.Bulgular: Hastaların %74’ü ilaçlarını doğru olarak kullanmaktaydı. Doğru kullanım oranları ölçülü doz inhaler (ÖDİ)’de % 66.3 ve kuru toz inhalerde (KTİ) % 76-81 arasında değişmekteydi (p=0.03, p
