The effectiveness and safety of fixed dual long-acting bronchodilators for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients have been well established; however, there is a paucity of clinical effectiveness comparison in patients with COPD treatment.

A series of N-alkyl-nor-tropine esters of 2-phenyl-2-cyclohexene-1-carboxylic, 2-phenyl-cyclohexanecarboxylic, and 2-phenyl-1-cyclohexene-1-acetic acids and their quaternary ammonium salts were synthesized and evaluated for bronchodilator activity by ...

Bronchodilator effect on regional lung function in pediatric viral lower respiratory tract infections [PDF]
Objective: Viral lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) are the leading cause for acute admission to the intensive care unit in infants and young children. Nebulized bronchodilators are often used when treating the most severe cases.

From the clinician's standpoint, an ideal bronchodilator should have (1) selectivity for bronchial smooth muscle, (2) minimal stimulatory effects on the cardiovascular and central nervous system, (3) prolonged action, (4) rapid onset of action, and (5 ...

The effect of oral corticosteroids on bronchodilator responses in COPD
There have been suggestions that corticosteroid treatment might improve bronchodilator responses in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We have studied bronchodilator responses to salbutamol and to oxitropium bromide in 20 patients with stable ...

Anticholinergics, or specific antimuscarinic agents, by inhibition of muscarinic receptors cause bronchodilatation, which might correlate with activation of these receptors by the muscarinic agonist methacholine.

The possibility that individual chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients respond better to either tiotropium or salmeterol has been suggested and an acute bronchodilator test might help to guide the choice of therapy.

Improved ventricular function during inhalation of PGI(2) aerosol partly relies on enhanced myocardial contractility [PDF]
Inhaled prostacyclin (PGI(2)) aerosol induces selective pulmonary vasodilation. Further, it improves right ventricular ( RV) function, which may largely rely on pulmonary vasodilation, but also on enhanced myocardial contractility.

Improved Metered Dose Inhaler Technique When a Coordination Cap Is Used [PDF]
Background: Patients often experience problems using metered dose inhalers (MDIs), particularly poor coordination between inhalation start and dose actuation (TsIn: time difference between the start of an inhalation and the actuation of a dose), and fast
