dc.description.abstractenglishObjectives The benefits of metered‐dose inhalers with a spacer (MDI+S) have increasingly been recognized as an alternative method of albuterol administration for treating pediatric asthma exacerbations. The aim of this systematic review was to compare the response to albuterol delivered through nebulization (NEB) with albuterol delivered through MDI+S in pediatric patients with asthma exacerbations. Methods We conducted an electronic search in MEDLINE/PubMed, EMBASE, Ovid, and ClinicalTrials. To be included in the review, a study had to a randomized clinical trial comparing albuterol delivered via NEB versus MDI+S; and had to report the rate of hospital admission (primary outcome), or any of the following secondary outcomes: oxygen arterial saturation, heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), the pulmonary index score (PIS), adverse effects, and need for additional treatment. Results Fifteen studies (n = 2057) met inclusion criteria. No significant differences were found between the two albuterol delivery methods in terms of hospital admission (relative risk, 0.89; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.55–1.46; I2 = 32%; p = .65). There was a significant reduction in the PIS score (mean difference [MD], −0.63; 95% CI, −0.91 to −0.35; I2 = 0%; p < .00001), and a significantly smaller increase in HR (better; MD −6.47; 95% CI, −11.69 to −1.25; I2 = 0%; p = .02) when albuterol was delivered through MDI+S than when it was delivered through NEB. Conclusions This review, an update of a previously‐published meta‐analysis, showed a significant reduction in the PIS and a significantly smaller increase in HR when albuterol was delivered through MDI+S than when it was delivered through NEB.eng
