متن کاملBronchodilator effect of nebulized sodium cromoglycate in children born prematurely.
We wished to determine whether nebulized sodium cromoglycate (SCG) has bronchodilator effects in very young children. In 18 children born prematurely and studied at a median of 15 months of age, thoracic gas volume (TGV) and airways resistance (Raw), were measured and hence specific airways conductance (sGaw) was calculated before (baseline) and after nebulized saline, and then after sodium cro...
