ABSTRACT
METHODS:
A questionnaire was sent to 50 000 general practicioners (GP) and specialists.RESULTS:
4,898 physicians (9.4%) responded, including 59.1% GP, 16.9% pneumologists, 13% pediatricians and about 10% other specialists, ENT, allergologists, and intensivists. The main reason for pneumologists to prescribe nebulization was the efficiency on long term of approved drugs. GP prescribe nebulization for its local effects, using unapproved drugs, on short periods of time, especially in COPD, asthma, bronchitis and tracheitis/laryningitis. Although pneumologists have been trained during their fellowship and do not ask for further education, MG have learned by their own experience and are asking for further education.CONCLUSION:
This study should help to develop teaching programs on nebulization with the aim to optimize its practice.
