What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. increase or decrease of WheezeRate (the proportion of wheezing in the respiratory cycle)

    Characterize the dynamic pattern of wheeze rate (increase or decrease by 50% or unchanged) within 30 minutes of onset of therapy, and to correlate pattern to clinical diagnoses, severity assessment (accessory muscle use, oxygen saturation, inspiratory/expiratory ratio, severity of wheezing), and outcome (admission versus discharge).

    Measured: Duration (from beginning to end) of emergency department stay. On average, 3 hours.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. cough count (increase or decrease by more then 1 cough event or unchanged) in response to treatment

    cough count (increase or decrease by more then 1 cough event or unchanged) in response to treatment and to correlate pattern to clinical diagnoses, severity assessment (accessory muscle use, oxygen saturation, inspiratory/expiratory ratio, severity of wheezing), and outcome (admission versus discharge).

    Measured: Duration (from beginning to end) of emergency department stay. On average, 3 hours.

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Noam Gavriely, MD PhD (+972 54 466 1337, noam@karmelsonix.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

increase or decrease of WheezeRate (the proportion of wheezing in the respiratory cycle) (time frame: Duration (from beginning to end) of emergency department stay. On average, 3 hours.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
