A spacer is a hand-held, portable valved holding chamber (VHC), that is placed between a metered dose inhaler (pMDI, or “puffer”) and the user’s mouth, to function as a reservoir from which an aerosol medication is dispensed to minimize delivery of large aerolsilised particles.

What Causes Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?  Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is prevalent among computer users, causing pain, numbness, and reduced functionality in the hand and forearm.

A Trans Metatarsal Amputation (TMA) involves surgically removing the forefoot through the metatarsal bones. It's commonly used to treat chronic ulcers, preventing infection spread and preserving limb condition. TMAs are often needed post-trauma or for non-healing wounds with severe infections or reduced blood flow, especially in diabetic foot syndrome patients with reduced sensation and delayed wound healing. TMA can offer better healing outcomes in these cases.
