A comparison of metered-dose inhaled albuterol versus endotracheal liquid bolus albuterol for the treatment of bronchoconstriction.
INTRODUCTION Aerosolized albuterol delivery is a mainstay treatment for bronchoconstriction; however, almost no data exist that evaluate the clinical outcome of instillation of an endotracheal liquid bolus (ELB) of a bronchodilator directly into the airway. METHODS This randomized trial sought to evaluate the efficacy of albuterol lavage via artificial airway with accompanied patient position...
متن کاملAlbuterol metered dose inhaler performance under hyperbaric pressures.
The weight change per actuation and aerosol particle size and number delivered by albuterol metered dose inhalers (MDIs) were measured in a multiplace hyperbaric chamber at pressures ranging from one atmosphere absolute (1 ATA, 0 feet of seawater, fsw, 101 kPa) to three ATA (66 fsw, 304 kPa). Weight change per actuation by CFC (chlorofluorocarbon) and long canister HFA (hydrofluoroalkane) power...
متن کاملComparison of albuterol delivered by a metered dose inhaler with spacer versus a nebulizer in children with mild acute asthma.
OBJECTIVE In children with mild acute asthma, to compare treatment with a single dose of albuterol delivered by a metered dose inhaler (MDI) with a spacer in either a weight-adjusted high dose or a standard low-dose regimen with delivery by a nebulizer. STUDY DESIGN In this randomized double-blind trial set in an emergency department, 90 children between 5 and 17 years of age with a baseline ...
متن کاملTreatment of bronchospasm by metered-dose inhaler albuterol in mechanically ventilated patients.
beta 2-agonist bronchodilators delivered by metered-dose inhalers (MDI) are commonly used in the treatment of bronchospasm in both intubated and nonintubated patients. Substantial data support the effectiveness of MDI delivery systems in nonintubated patients. However, few studies have examined the effectiveness of MDIs in intubated, mechanically ventilated patients. MDIs are often used in conj...
متن کاملThe conversion to metered-dose inhaler with valved holding chamber to administer inhaled albuterol: a pediatric hospital experience.
BACKGROUND Metered-dose inhalers with valved holding chambers (MDI-VHCs) have been shown to be equivalent to small-volume nebulizers (SVNs) for the delivery of bronchodilators in children. At Seattle Children's Hospital and Regional Medical Center we sought to implement the conversion from SVN to MDI-delivered albuterol in nonintubated patients receiving intermittent treatments. METHODS There...
