Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
The main study parameter is the ability of a child to understand how to use the inhaler correctly.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
The parameter that describes whether or not a child is capable of using the inhaler correctly is the pressure drop (s)he creates over the inhaler upon inhalation, from which various inspiratory parameters can be calculated. Furthermore, the presence of a blockage in the mouth upon inhalation will be observed as function of the inhaler design (mouthpiece and resistance).	—
