Whether a post surgery intubated patient is at risk for aspiration-based pneumonia is determined by requiring the patient to inhale an aerosol of tartaric acid (101) that will stimulate a sensory innervation of the patient's larynx, if functionally recovered, thereby causing the patient to cough. The resulting cough or lack of cough is graded (103) to determine whether the patient is at risk for pneumonia caused by the aspiration of matter present in the patient's mouth. In a further embodiment, the inability or difficulty of a patient to voluntarily expel potentially threatening fluid, and matter from the patient's airway can be remedied by repeated applications of the aerosol chemostimulant spray.

On détermine les risques de pneumonie basée sur l'aspiration encourus par un patient post-opératoire intubé au moyen d'un procédé consistant à demander à ce patient d'inhaler un aérosol d'acide tartarique (101) qui stimulera l'innervation sensorielle du larynx, ce qui provoquera la toux du patient si son larynx a recouvré ses fonctions. On évalue (103) la toux obtenue ou le manque de toux afin de déterminer si le patient présente un risque de pneumonie provoquée par l'aspiration de matières présentes dans sa bouche. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, on peut remédier à l'incapacité ou à la difficulté d'un patient à expulser volontairement un liquide ou des matières présentant un danger potentiel hors de ses voies respiratoires au moyen d'applications répétées de cette pulvérisation d'aérosol chimiostimulant.
