Filter by:A prospective study in Beni-Seuf University Hospital that was conducted on 123 adult patients with acute asthma exacerbations. Patients were classified into group (I): received IV magnesium sulfate, group (II): received nebulized magnesium sulfate, and group (III): control group. Blood pressure, respiratory rate, pulse, peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) measurement using a peak flowmeter, Fischl index and need for hospitalization in patients with acute bronchial asthma were done for all patients before treatment, immediately after the treatment, "30", and "60" min after treatment.
The purpose of this study was to establish the effect on pulse rate, oxygen saturation, respiratory rate, pain and anxiety levels of Fowler's and the forward-leaning positions during nebulization in children experiencing asthma attacks.
A digital tool, called ReferID has been developed to facilitate the review of asthma patients. It aims to assist in the identification of patients with uncontrolled and/or severe asthma and to ensure a timely referral to secondary care where appropriate. To validate the tool, patients will be randomised to have a review with a healthcare professional using tool to facilitate the review or to continue receiving usual care. Outcome measures including exacerbation frequency and level of asthma control will be assessed at 12 months.
prospective multicenter observational study. Parents whose children meet the inclusion criteria complete a questionnaire assessing the child's follow-up, the management of the current asthma attack, and the treatment provided at home. The main objective is to calculate the prevalence of placement of short-acting bronchodilators. The secondary objectives are to describe the factors associated with their implementation.
The investigators will study the use of a home-based spirometer (Spirobank Smart spirometer) that connects to a smartphone app (VitalFlo) in teenagers with persistent asthma to determine if clinically significant changes in lung function detected by the spirometer are associated with patient-reported asthma symptoms.
The primary goal of this proposal is to use an in-home, smartphone-enabled, hand-held spirometer to determine the FEV1% predicted ranges that predict the Yellow Zone threshold.
Objective: Identify modifiable factors that may affect asthma control and the use of emergency room to define customized interventions for the management of asthma prior to emergency room. Emergency department attendance is always a sign of poor balance or control of asthma. In spite of a decrease in the number of deaths that has been halved in 20 years and hospitalization due to asthmatic disease, the use of emergency center for this disease has not decreased. We now know that the passage through emergencies and hospitalization for aggravation of asthma is in itself a factor of mortality. Acting on the determinants of poor balance or control of asthma is essential to further reduce the mortality and morbidity of asthma.
