  • Publication number: 20220316927
    Abstract: A method for determining an aerosol dose rate of an aerosol stream by a sensor module includes providing the aerosol stream to a patient by an inhalation device. The sensor module and the method allow an accurate determination of the aerosol dose rate actually received by the patient from the aerosol stream when using the inhalation device, the inhaled dose per breath, and the total inhaled dose per application. The sensor module can be used with existing or new inhalation devices which benefit from the determination of the actually received aerosol dose rate while the patient can maintain using the familiar inhalation device.
