Study Summary

This is a double blind, controlled clinical trail testing whether three doses of 1.25 mg of nebulized levalbuterol in combination with three doses of 0.5mg of nebulized ipratropium will lead to greater bronchodilation than that achieved by three doses of nebulized 1.25 mg of levalbuterol alone every 20 minutes. The primary hypothesis of this study is that three doses of 1.25 mg of nebulized levalbuterol in combination with three doses of 0.5mg of nebulized ipratropium will lead to greater bronchodilation than that achieved by three doses of nebulized 1.25 mg of levalbuterol alone every 20 minutes. The secondary hypothesis is that the treatment combination of levalbuterol and ipratropium will lead to fewer hospitalizations than levalbuterol alone in patients with acute asthma exacerbation. Other secondary objectives include (1) evaluating the relationship between baseline (S)- albuterol levels and (R)- albuterol levels on presentation and FEV1, (2) the relationship between baseline (S)- albuterol levels and (R)- albuterol levels on presentation and change in FEV1,(3) time to event analysis for an improvement of 15%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50% in FEV1 from initial presentation value, (4) analysis of FEV1 at discharge.

Primary Outcome

Measure FEV-1 in participants immediately prior to treatment and 60 minutes after final treatment to determine improvement in bronchodilation after 1.25mg nebulized levalbuterol + 0.5mg nebulized ipratropium administered every 20 minutes for a total of 3 doses versus bronchodilation after 1.25mg nebulized levalbuterol administered every 20 minutes for a total of 3 doses. FEV-1 measurements were obtained using a hand held spirometer. A difference in 12% of median FEV-1 measures between the two gr
