Abstract
Advanced aerosol therapy in otorhinolaryngology should be sufficiently discussed in relation to applicable inhalation devices and clinical indications. In this paper, the specifications, advantages and disadvantages, procedures, and notes of the medical therapeutic devices are reviewed with the choice available and their performance. In particular, the physiochemical properties of the drug solution, which affects the specifications of inhalation devices, the spray angle into the nasal cavity, and the drug delivery to the paranasal sinuses are represented as inhalation techniques. In addition, some techniques of aerosolized treatments are also mentioned corresponding to the development of new therapeutic medical devices in inhalation therapy.
