Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study will use a randomized, double-blind, controlled trial design in order to assess the safety and efficacy of levalbuterol (LEV) compared to racemic albuterol (RAC) when delivered continuously in a high-dose regimen for children with severe exacerbations of asthma. Primary hypothesis * Children with severe asthma receiving continuous levalbuterol will have a shorter duration of continuous therapy as compared to racemic albuterol. Secondary hypotheses * Children receiving continuous levalbuterol will have improved lung function measured by forced expiratory volume at 1 second (FEV1) as compared to racemic albuterol. * Children receiving continuous levalbuterol will have improved clinical asthma score as compared to racemic albuterol.
