Description:
Exacerbation of asthma is a progressive step in progressive breathing, coughing, wheezing, breathing.
In Indonesia salbutamol nebulation is used for the therapy of the first exacerbation attack. The
effectiveness of asthma exacerbation therapy needs to be monitored and one of the monitoring
parameters that is easily seen is the rate of breath.The aim of this study was to investigate the difference
in respiratory rate values using salbutamol nebulisation and intravenous aminophylline in patients
with asthma exacerbations in hospitals in Surabaya. The research was conducted by using quasi
experimental method and data collection by purposive sampling. Analysis of the data to be used is a
independent t-test. The results showed that the salbutamol group decreased respiratory rate by 50.00%,
there were also patients who experienced an increase of breath rate of 13.64%. In the aminophylline
group experienced a decrease in respiratory rate of 43.75% with an increase of breath rate of 18.75%.
From the results of the study, it is necessary to monitor the effectiveness and the need to monitor
the unwanted reactions of both treatments so that the therapies produced in the treatment of asthma
exacerbations are more effective.
