2015, Murray and Nadel's Textbook of Respiratory Medicine: Volume 1,2, Sixth EditionEarly administration of terbutaline in severe pediatric asthma may reduce incidence of acute respiratory failure
2014, Annals of Allergy, Asthma and ImmunologyCitation Excerpt :Inhaled β agonist therapy and systemic administration of corticosteroids continue to be the treatment of choice for acute asthma exacerbations.11–16 However, despite this therapy, some pediatric patients deteriorate to an acute respiratory failure status and require invasive or noninvasive mechanical ventilation (bilevel positive airway pressure).17–21 One explanation for such an occurrence is based on the fact that severe bronchospasm does not allow sufficient inhaled medication to be topically effective.

2012, Respiratory MedicineCitation Excerpt :Most investigators report mortality rates of 6–38% with more recent studies reporting mortality less than 10%.7,8 Several reports suggest that mechanical ventilation (MV) in SA is associated with significant morbidity and mortality.9–12 Many patients admitted with SA will require ICU level care.
