racepinephrine and Bronchiolitis, Viral

racepinephrine has been researched along with Bronchiolitis, Viral in 3 studies

Racepinephrine: A racemic mixture of d-epinephrine and l-epinephrine.
4-[1-hydroxy-2-(methylamino)ethyl]benzene-1,2-diol : A catecholamine in which the aminoethyl side-chain is hydroxy-substituted at C-1 and methylated on nitrogen.

Bronchiolitis, Viral: An acute inflammatory disease of the lower RESPIRATORY TRACT, caused by paramyxoviruses, occurring primarily in infants and young children; the viruses most commonly implicated are PARAINFLUENZA VIRUS TYPE 3; RESPIRATORY SYNCYTIAL VIRUS, HUMAN; and METAPNEUMOVIRUS.

Trial Outcomes

Hours of Hospital Stay

Each patient record the time of entry and measured the total hospital stay time in hours, recording the time of discharge to determine the total stay in hours. The hospital stay will be evaluated in hours. Staying hospitalized until they had mild respiratory stage scale scores for at least 2 hrs. (NCT02233985)
Timeframe: Throughout the stay for each patient until discharge. Follow-up will be continued for a period of 30 days in which they may present readmissions, complications or adverse effects.

Score Respiratory Distress

It is a validated clinical scale, sufficiently reliable measure of Severity of the respiratory distress. It consists of the summation score of the sibilance / crackling parameters (the largest of them), respiratory effort, pulmonary air inlet, oxygen saturation, heart rate and breathing rate. It is stratified into 3 levels of severity: mild from 0 to 5 points, moderate from 6 to 10 and severe from 10 to 16. (NCT02233985)
Timeframe: Basal, 30 minutes after the end of the first 3 continuous nebulization sessions, at 4 hours, 8 hours and every 24 hours during the entire hospital stay

Respiratory Assessment Change Score (RACS)

The Respiratory Assessment Change Score (RACS) assesses change in respiratory status using the change in the Respiratory Distress Assessment Instrument (RDAI) and a standardized change in respiratory rate, with points being assigned by change increments of 10%. Thus, a change in respiratory rate of ≤5% from baseline counted as a change of 0 units, decrease/increase of 6% to 15% counted as improvement/deterioration of 1 unit, etc. The overall RACS is the arithmetic sum of the RDAI change and the standardized respiratory rate change between assessments with a decrease in RACS signifying improvement.
