Mist Therapy Reconsidered—Humidified Tents vs. The High Humidity Room, Further Comment

Abstract

It is gratifying that Avery and her group, in a recent paper, have by careful thought, knowledge of physics, and the alchemy of mathematics helped substantiate some of the statements we made in the paper which dealt with the size of water droplets in relation to the obstructive respiratory ills of childhood. In their report, indicated above, these workers deny the value of a humidified plastic tent (or mist tent) and mention several possible adverse effects when these tents are used.
