Response to albuterol MDI delivered through an anti-static chamber during nocturnal bronchospasm.
BACKGROUND Decreasing electrostatic charge on valved holding chambers increases the amount of drug delivered. However, there are no data demonstrating that this increases bronchodilatation. OBJECTIVE To investigate the influence of reducing electrostatic charge on the bronchodilator response to albuterol inhaler during nocturnal bronchospasm. METHODS This randomized double-blind, double-du...
متن کاملTreatment of nocturnal asthma with pulsed-release albuterol.
The treatment of nocturnal asthma remains a challenge. We investigated the use of a pulsed-released albuterol in ten patients with nocturnal symptoms of asthma. In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover designed study, we tested the use of 8 mg of pulsed-release albuterol sulfate (Proventil Repetabs) vs placebo. The pulsed-release albuterol significantly blunted the overnight...
متن کاملAlbuterol delivery during noninvasive ventilation.
HYPOTHESIS Albuterol delivered during noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation is affected by use of a nebulizer or metered-dose inhaler (MDI) and whether the leak port is in the hose or the mask. METHODS A lung model that simulated spontaneous breathing at 20 breaths/min was used. A bi-level positive-airway-pressure ventilator (Respironics S/T30) was set for an inspiratory positive airway p...
متن کاملAnti-oxidative response of different wheat genotypes to drought during anthesis .
The aim of this work was to study drought effects on lipid peroxidation, antioxidant compounds, and anti-oxidative enzymes activities in two tolerant (Daric and 92 Zhong), two moderately tolerant (Sabalan and DH-2049-3) and two sensitive (Shark and Tevees) wheat genotypes. Malondialdehyde content and electrolyte leakage increased significantly (P
متن کاملBronchodilator reversibility to albuterol predicts bronchodilator response to salmeterol.
We read with interest the recent study by Fish et al (August 2001)1 showing that adding salmeterol to inhaled corticosteroid achieved superior control as compared to adding montelukast. However it is likely that the results were biased toward the long-acting 2-agonist as patients were required as an inclusion criteria to have at least 12% increase in FEV1 in response to albuterol. It is therefo...
