The dose of aerosolized drug that exited a 16-cm-long tracheal tube with an inner diameter (ID) of 6 mm was compared wit...

There was no significant difference in the absolute or percentage increase in FEV1 with the two treatments, but fenoterol caused a significantly greater (P less than 0.01) increase in heart rate than did salbutamol. A greater degree of bronchodilatation was o...
