Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To compare the bronchodilator efficacy of ipratropium plus salbutamol (Combivent) with salbutamol alone given every 20 minutes for three doses in asthmatic children with severe acute exacerbation

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A Comparison of Ipratropium 500mcg and salbutamol 2.5mg (Combivent UDV) and salbutamol UDV alone (2.5mg) in a Double-blind, Efficacy and Safety Study in Asthmatic Children with Severe Acute Exacerbation

Study Hypothesis:

Several studies, including a study conducted in an emergency room setting, demonstrated that the addition of ipratropium bromide, an anticholinergic drug, to standard salbutamol therapy significantly improves pulmonary function as compared to salbutamol alone.

Comparison(s):

Ipratropium bromide 500 mcg plus salbutamol 2.5mg (Combivent) vs salbutamol (2.5mg) alone given every 20 minutes for 3 doses
