Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • PAS Pediatric Asthma Score

    PAS Pediatric Asthma Score- This score assesses respiratory distress and wheezing. Higher score the more severe the asthma attack. The score ranges from 3 to 15 and clinical improvement is expected when there is a reduction of 3 points or more.

    Change from baseline PAS at first 45 minutes and 5th day in hospital

  • Suplemental Oxigen day use

    Oxigen dose number of days used

    Change from baseline Oxygen dose at first 45 minutes and 5th day in hospital.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Forced Expiratory volume in first second

    Change from baseline FEV1 at first 45 minutes and 5th day in hospital.

  • Bronchodilator doses ( Salbutamol)

    Change from baseline Salbutamol dose (First day and 5th day in hospital)

Study Arms (2)

High Flow nasal cannula

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

It will be administered as part of the high-flow nasal cannula treatment to reduce the symptoms of acute asthma

Other: High Flow Nasal cannula

NIV noninvasive ventilation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

It will be administered as part of the Noninvasive ventilation treatment to reduce the symptoms of acute asthma

Other: NIV Noninvasive Ventilation

Interventions

The HFNC will be instituted therapy with high-flow nasal cannula with dosage and cannula calculated according to the child's weight, ranging from 2 l / min to 30 l / min. The therapy will begin with diaphragmatic exercises 3x10 breaths and after high-flow therapy with nasal cannula for 45 minutes, after which will be performed the vital signs evaluations and Peak Flow, HRV, FEV1.

Also known as: HFNC
High Flow nasal cannula

The Therapy consisted of 3x10 diaphragmatic re-education exercises after a Bipap device was coupled in bipedal mode with parameters Ipap 12 cm H2O and Epap 8 cm H2O, for 45 minutes, according to the patient's tolerance, with Full face facial mask. After therapy evaluated vital signs and measures of Peak Flow, HRV, FEV1.
