• Universal MDI adapter is compatible with all commonly prescribed MDIs
• Durable holding chamber is made of a unique, flexible and shatterproof plastic

AeroChamber Z STAT is a spacer device designed to improve the delivery of medication from an inhaler to the lungs. It separates the medication particles, allowing the smaller ones to reach the areas of the lungs that need it most. The AeroChamber holds any remaining particles, enabling the patient to take more than one breath per puff of medicine. This is especially beneficial for those who struggle to achieve a high peak expiratory flow (PEF), ensuring the maximum amount of prescribed medicine reaches the lungs for optimal benefit.

• EZ Flow Exhalation Valve: Minimizes re-breathing and directs exhaled flow away from the face of the patient.
• Anti-Static Chamber: Anti-static polymer chamber minimizes static charge which maximizes performance with pMDI formulations.
• Low Resistance Inhalation Valve: Lower resistance valve requires less effort to open by low flow patients.
• Universal Backpiece: Fits all commonly prescribed Metered Dose Inhalers.
• FlowSignal Whistle: Optional FlowSignal whistle alerts patients to breathe slowly.

6. Depress inhaler (MDI) at the beginning of slow deep inhalation.
7. Maintain the effective mask/face seal and ensure an additional 5-6 breaths are taken through the chamber before administering another puff of medication.
8. If using the model with Flow signal whistle and hear a whistle sound then slow down inhalation.
