Official title
Negative Inspiratory Flow (NIF) in Children Age 4-8 Years During Acute Asthma to Evaluate the Use of a Dry Powder Inhaler: A Pilot Study
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
There are different inhalers used for the treatment of asthma and they work differently and require different technique for the optimal drug delivery to the lungs. One of the inhalers is the Dry Powder Inhaler (DPI). The minimal amount of Negative Inspiratory Flow (NIF) required to use this medication is 30ml/min. Studies have shown that children find it difficult to generate this NIF and studies have also shown that children generate lesser NIF during an Asthma exacerbation. The investigators will measure the NIF using an InCheck Dial on children with asthma during an exacerbation and when they are seen in clinic for a hospital follow up visit. This will be done on asthmatic children regardless of the inhaler that they use. The investigator hypothesize that children with asthma age 4-8 years cannot generate the required NIF during an Asthma exacerbation hence proving that a DPI cannot be prescribed to children at this age. This study will examine this hypothesis.
