OBJECTIVE: To compare the efficacy of nebulised budesonide with that of oral prednisone in the treatment of acute severe asthma in children.
METHODS: Children aged 5-12 y with acute exacerbation of bronchial asthma were included. The study (budesonide) group received budesonide respirator solution (800 μg) at intervals of 20 min and a single dose of placebo tablets. The control (prednisolone) group received placebo solution at intervals of 20 min and a single dose of oral prednisolone (2 mg/kg). Both groups received three doses of nebulised salbutamol (0.15 mg/kg). Heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, PEFR (Peak Expiratory Flow Rate) and fitness for discharge were assessed.
RESULTS: Both groups showed a progressive decrease in tachycardia with treatment, but it was significantly greater in study group (p = 0.0002). There was significant decrease in tachypnea and improvement in oxygen saturation in both groups, but the difference between the groups (p = 0.334 and p = 0.814 respectively) was not significant. There was significant improvement in PEFR values in budesonide group (p = 0.024). Both groups showed significant improvement in clinical severity scores at the end of 2 h (p < 0.0001). Budesonide group had significantly higher proportion of patients fit for discharge at 2 h (based on clinical severity scores) (p = 0.0278).
CONCLUSIONS: Nebulised budesonide significantly improves PEFR levels and fitness for discharge at 2 h when compared to oral prednisolone in children between 5 and 12 y with acute severe asthma.
