摘要：
A transition adapter (100) component of a ventilator aerosol delivery system for delivering an aerosol to a patient, includes a housing (110) having a proximal end (120) and a distal end (130), the proximal end (120) having an aerosol passage (140) for receiving an aerosol (234) produced by a heated capillary (232) and a gas connection port (150) for receiving carrier gas (316) from a ventilator (300), which is in communication with a plurality of gas entry ports (154) within the transition adapter (100). An inner cavity (170) of the transition adapter (100) receives the aerosol (234) from the heated capillary (232) and the streams of carrier gas (316) from a plurality of gas exit ports (156) within the transition adapter (100) and directs the streams of carrier gas (316) at least partially encircling and in parallel with the aerosol (234). An exit port (160) on the distal end (130) of the transition adapter housing (110) delivers an entrained aerosol to an aerosol delivery connector.
