55 Conclusion u Many inhaled drugs were approved based on studies in spontaneous breathing subjects with lung doses of 10 20%. u Lung dose with standard JN can deliver as little as 3% of dose to the lung. u Many of the devices used in Neonates, infants, children and adults can achieve >10% lung dose with conventional ventilation, NIV and HFNC. u Choice of aerosol generator and placement makes a difference in drug delivery to the lung u Selection of Drug Dose for Specific Device can Achieve Effective Lung Doses jfink@aerogenpharma.com
