When using the VORTEX® Non-Electrostatic Valved Holding Chamber with a toddler mask, it's essential to be aware of certain safety considerations to ensure effective and safe treatment for your child.

Supervision and Choking Hazard: Always supervise your child during use. The device contains small parts that could pose a choking risk, especially for children under three years old. Keep all components out of reach when not in use.

Proper Assembly: Before each use, ensure all parts are correctly assembled and securely connected. An improperly assembled device may not deliver the medication effectively. If you're uncertain about assembly, consult the instructions or seek guidance from a healthcare professional.

Cleaning and Maintenance: To prevent contamination and ensure optimal performance, clean the device before first use and disinfect it weekly. Follow the manufacturer's cleaning instructions carefully. If any parts are damaged or missing, replace the device to maintain its effectiveness.

Single-Patient Use: The VORTEX® Holding Chamber is designed for use by one patient only. Sharing the device between individuals can increase the risk of cross-contamination and infection.

Use with Prescribed Medication: Only use the device with medications prescribed by your child's physician. Follow the prescribed dosage and administration instructions to ensure safe and effective treatment.

By adhering to these safety guidelines, you can help ensure that your child receives the full therapeutic benefits of their inhaled medication while minimizing potential risks.

Ensuring a comfortable and effective inhalation experience for toddlers using the VORTEX® holding chamber involves selecting the appropriate mask and employing strategies to encourage cooperation. The VORTEX® offers specially designed pediatric masks tailored for different age groups:

• Small Pediatric Mask: Ideal for infants aged 0 to 1.5 years.
• Medium Pediatric Mask: Suited for children aged 1.5 to 4 years.

These masks are crafted to provide a soft, comfortable fit, ensuring a secure seal over the nose and mouth, which is crucial for effective medication delivery.

To foster a positive interaction during inhalation therapy:

• Demonstrate the Process: Show your child how the inhalation works, perhaps using a doll or soft toy, to familiarize them with the procedure.
• Create a Calm Environment: A relaxed setting can help reduce anxiety, making the experience more pleasant for your toddler.
• Incorporate Play: Using masks with friendly designs, like the Ladybug or Frog, can make the process more engaging and less intimidating.

By combining the right equipment with a supportive approach, you can enhance your toddler's comfort and cooperation during inhalation therapy.
