Common questions
What does Asthma Acute Exacerbation Management do?
Use to triage and treat: mild-moderate in outpatient/community, severe in the ED with ipratropium and possible IV magnesium, and life-threatening in ED/ICU with ventilation readiness.
How is the result calculated?
Core: repeated SABA + early systemic steroid + controlled oxygen (SpO₂ 93–95%). Severe adds ipratropium ± IV magnesium sulfate 2 g; life-threatening prepares for mechanical ventilation.
Is this a substitute for clinical judgement?
No. All results are decision-support only, for licensed clinicians. They must be individualized to the whole patient and the latest guideline version.
