Aerosol therapy is a form of medication administration that favors a quick and easy absorption of them in the respiratory tract; thus favoring great advantages in improving the health status of patients who are undergoing mechanical ventilation in the ICU. The most commonly used medications are bronchodilators, beta-agonists and anticholinergics. The use of this therapy should be used more frequently in these patients, but factors specific to the individual and the medication should be considered for its application; its use in patients with COVID-19 should also be considered.
