Inhalation technique assessment and evaluation for the need of pharmaceutical intervention in respiratory pathologies patients.

CONCLUSIONS: There is a high rate of errors in the use of inhaled  therapy, being even higher among older aged patients. The inhalation  technique training by the medical staff seems inadequate, as it is crucial  to raise awareness about the importance of health education for  patients and their use of inhalers, to which a scheduled follow up and a  technical and feedback obtained from the patient assessment is  required.
