摘要
Asthma and bronchiolitis are episodic obstructive pulmonary diseases characterized by broncho-constriction, airway wall inflammation, increased mucus production, and air-flow obstruction. We present the cases of 5 infants treated for acute bronchiolitis with respiratory distress using a combination of high-flow nasal cannula oxygen (HFNC) and an Aerogen nebulizer to deliver aerosolized beta-agonist therapy. In all infants, we found that HFNC resulted in a greater heart rate increase than delivery via a facemask. We also found that patients tolerated inhaled therapy better with HFNC than a facemask.
