I-neb AAD System
The I-neb AAD system is a handheld, battery-powered drug delivery system. I-neb produces aerosol in a different way than conventional nebulizers; it does not require a supply of compressed air to drive the system. Aerosol is produced by vibrating mesh technology (VMT) within the medication chamber; when coupled with AAD technology, this allows significant advantages over conventional nebulizers. The end result is a smaller, lighter, almost silent device that can nebulize faster than conventional systems. The I-neb AAD system is operated by a disc that activates the system with information to tell the I-neb how to deliver the medication.
Prodose AAD System - Second Generation AAD System
The Prodose AAD system is a second-generation AAD system based on the HaloLite design. However, it offers significant improvements in convenience and flexibility over HaloLite. The Prodose AAD system consists of a compressor connected to a self-powered handpiece fitted with a liquid crystal display. The main difference between the HaloLite and the Prodose AAD systems is that instead of using a factory-programmed pre-set dose, Prodose utilizes the AAD disc to control drug delivery. The AAD disc is a plastic disc containing a microchip and antenna; when inserted into Prodose, this instructs the device about dosage, the dosing frequency and the number of doses that may be delivered, together with various control data including drug lot number and expiration date. The AAD disc is programmed to a specific drug formulation, and can be packaged with the drug as part of the pharmaceutical packaging process.
HaloLite - First Generation AAD System
In 1997, HaloLite became the first AAD system to become commercially available. It was designed on active venturi jet nebulizer technology to aerosolize formulations typically used for the treatment of asthma patients. The HaloLite AAD system consisted of a handpiece, including a mouthpiece, a medication chamber and an electronic control unit. The compressor is operated from household electricity.
