Comparasion of Efficacy of Nebulized Magnesium Sulphate With Intravenous Magnesium Sulphate in Children With Acute Asthma

The purpose of study is to assess the effectiveness of nebulized magnesium sulphate in children presenting with acute asthma.Study perfoma consists of demographic variables,exclusion criteria and pediatric asthma score that includes respiratory rate,SPO2 at room air(requirement of oxygen),auscultatory findings in chest,dysnea and retractions.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

After getting informed consent from guardian,148 patients of acute moderate ro severe asthma with pediatric asthma score 8-15 will be randomly classified into 2 groups and one group will receive nebulization with magnesium sulphate and other will receive intravenous magnesium sulphate and effectiveness will be compared by 4 point reduction in PAS from baseline in either groups after 6 hours.
