May indicate need for oxygenation monitoring with these aerosols if FEV unchanged; leaves open effects on outcomes and need for trials.
Do isoprenaline and orciprenaline aerosols affect lung mechanics and gas exchange in asthmatic patients?
Sympathomimetic amine aerosols can induce transient alveolar hyperventilation and a small fall in arterial oxygen tension in asthmatic patients.
Crosbie et al. (1971) studied this question.
