Comparison of salbutamol given by intermittent positive-pressure breathing and pressure-packed aerosol in chronic asthma.
A double-blind crossover study was performed to compare 4 . 8 mg salbutamol given by pressure-packed aerosol and intermittent positive-pressure breathing nebulization in chronic asthmatic patients. The two delivery techniques produced similar changes in respiratory function and pulse rates. Given equal effect, a high-dose pressure-packed aerosol would have advantages in cost and convenience ove...
متن کاملIsoetharinewith Phenylephrine Aerosol in Asthma
The bronchodilator effect of fenoterol hydrobromide (0.5, 1.25, and 2.5 mg) was compared with either isoproternol (2.8 mg) or isoetharine (5 mg) with phenylephrine (1.25 mg) in a double-blind placebo-controlled study. When delivered by an intermittent positive-pressure breathing device to 24 nonsmoking young adult asthmatic subjects, fenoterol produced significant improvement in forced expirato...
متن کاملComparison between simple nebulization and intermittent positive-pressure in asthmatic children with severe bronchospasm.
Tweinty-three asthmatic children had severe sudden bronchospasm due to numerous factors. Baseline values for the peak expiratory flow rate were less than 25 percent of predicted. Utilizing an analysis of variance, three methods of administering isoproterenol hydrochloride (hand-held Freon-propelled nebulization, continuous nebulization, and intermittent positive-pressure breathing [IPPB]) were ...
متن کاملIntravenous or inhaled salbutamol in severe acute asthma?
Ten patients with life-threatening attacks of asthma (status asthmatiucus') were treated with salbutamol inhaled by intermittent positive pressure breathing, and their response in terms of rise in peak flow rate was measured. They were then given intravenous salbutamol and any further increment in peak flow was measured. Hydrocortisone treatment was started simultaneously and the responses to s...
متن کاملThe use of positive pressure devices by physiotherapists.
The aim of this paper is to review the indications for use by physiotherapists, such as physiological rationale and the comparative efficacy of intermittent positive pressure breathing (IPPB) and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). A brief discussion of nasal intermittent positive airway pressure is also included. The use of IPPB for post operative prophylaxis has not been supported in ...
متن کاملIntermittent positive-pressure breathing after lung surgery.
Intermittent positive-pressure breathing is thought to avoid atelectasis and improve pulmonary function after major lung resections. Since no clear scientific data was available to confirm this, our objective was to determine whether atelectasis can be avoided and if postoperative lung function is improved. Prospective analysis was carried out in 135 patients operated on between 2007 and 2009; ...
