How do you use the pocket chamber spacer for an asthma inhaler?

My method: The pocket chamber spacer has a lot going for it - small size, smaller price. Like all modern inhaler devices it has a one-way valve so your exhaled breath does not return to the holding chamber. (1) activate inhaler (2) begin inhaling within 1 second (3) inhale slowly to a count of 5 (1, one thousand, 2...) (4) hold breath to count of 10 (5) exhale (6) wait 30 seconds (7) repeat with 2nd dose.

Demonstration: The technique for use of a spacer is about the same as when you don't use one. It is important to use spacers with toddlers, but most older children and adults can use their inhalers almost as effectively without one. In fact, some asthmatics don't use their inhalers at all because they don't want to lug a spacer around and clean it. For a demo, go to http://www.Youtube.Com/watch?V=yyebhte97se.
