Abstract
An aerosol medicament delivery adapter comprises a first conduit, second conduit and a diverter element. The first conduit encloses a flow path chamber and extends between an upstream first end and a downstream second end. The second conduit comprises an aerosol medicament delivery conduit that includes an upstream first end adapted to be fluidly coupled to a particle generator, and a downstream second end luidly coupled to the first conduit at a Y-junction proximate the upstream first end of the first conduit. The diverter element comprises a flow diverter chamber disposed within the first conduit or the second conduit. The cylindrical flow diverter chamber includes a transitional flow cross-section and a principal axis, extending between a first end and a second end thereof. The diverter element creates flow eddies for enhancing an entrainment of aerosol particles, delivered via the second conduit, within a pressurized gas flow along the flow path within the first conduit.
