Resumen
La crisis asmática es un evento de dificultad respiratoria que se presenta de manera inesperada, con disnea, sensación de opresión en el pecho, tos y sibilancias, la combinación de estas manifestaciones clínicas deteriora el estado de salud del paciente ya sea pediátrico u adulto. La identificación temprana del estado asmático y su rápido y enérgico tratamiento son objetivos esenciales, ya que la incapacidad para percibir la gravedad de la emergencia o su tratamiento tardío está totalmente relacionados con la gravedad y la mortalidad de la crisis de asma. El objetivo de la investigación es describir el tratamiento inhalatorio utilizado en pacientes entre 0- 12 años con crisis asmática que fueron atendidos en el área de emergencia en Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos Pediátricos del hospital del niño “Dr. FRANCISCO ICAZA BUSTAMANTE” dentro del periodo de enero 2019 a enero del 2020. Se realizó un análisis de las historias clínicas de los pacientes que presentaron los criterios de inclusión mencionados anteriormente, con un total de 73 personas. Los resultados a destacar fueron los síntomas principales: tos, disnea, sibilancias y dolor torácico. El rango de edad que más presentaron crisis asmática fue menores a 5 años. El género más afectado fue el femenino. La estrategia más utilizada para el control de la crisis asmática es la combinación de manera alternada de fármacos de manera inhalada como el bromuro de ipratropio más salbutamol.
