Status Asthmaticus on the Intensive Care Prospective - STATIC PRO
- Conditions
- Childhood Asthma With Status Asthmaticus
- Registration Number
- NCT02936778
- Lead Sponsor
- Erasmus Medical Center
- Brief Summary
This study will prospectively assess the impact and relevance of several risk factors for children with severe acute asthma (SAA) or acute wheeze that have been identified in retrospective studies. Secondary we will assess short-term medical and psychosocial functioning in patient (and parents) admitted to a PICU for SAA/acute wheeze versus a control group admitted to a MC for SAA/acute wheeze.
