From another thread
Based on what I'm hearing from colleagues in peds ID it seems like asthma is the theme of severe presentations under 20. Kids with asthma are the ones getting intubated, but thankfully this is more related to reactive airway disease and less so parenchymal lung disease. It basically causes a severe asthma exacerbation which is easy enough to fix once they're intubated.
--------- Can any medical people expound on what this means for children w asthma/adults w asthma?
Quoting: Karach123 I'd like to know this, too. I have a kid with asthma, although he hasn't had issues for a couple years. And my Dr diagnosed me with reactive airway, but maybe asthma. I've been coughing since the end of December, but Albuterol helps.
