    During asthma attack non invasive ventilations are not useful ryt?

    I like the pyramid approach, and know you are keeping this simple, but wonder if you are over-simplifying how CPAP/BiPAP works. We don't use it to "force Oxygen in" as that isn't the problem with Asthma. We use it, at least partially, to stint the airways open (CPAP portion), and to reduce to accessory muscles being used (BiPAP). I'd say for the most part, BiPAP is used over CPAP for an Asthma exacerbation. Intubating asthmatics is quite complicated - maybe it would be sufficient to say it can be very difficult to get air into (and more importantly, out of) patients lungs during severe exacerbations.
    Also, as Michael comments, Heliox (a mix of a little bit of oxygen, sometimes the same as Room Air around us, with a larger amount of Helium) can be vital as it changes the density, basically sneaking the oxygen by the areas of constriction.
    Final thought: a step up from simply giving a nebulizer is continuous nebulization, where we give larger amounts of bronchodilators like albuterol (up to 10x what we give in a single nebulized dosage). Combining these (such as giving a continuous nebulizer with heliox with ventilation with IV steroids) is common in more severe cases.

      Scot Jones Agree with your comments about CPAP/BiPAP. However, regarding Heliox, although its use seems very elegant from a physics perspective, the evidence supporting its use in either children or adults is unfortunately very small and underwhelming (a handful of heterogeneous trials, typically numbering a few dozen patients a piece) - the time seems ripe for a much larger, more robust RCT.

    Could someone explain to me why blacks are affected MORE by Asthma than other races? I was just curious about this but there isn't much information.

      I read it has to do with social determinants of health.

      You should write this comment under every single video that has the word "Asthma" in it...! Oh wait, you already have... Dude, look it up and quit being a weirdo and typing asking the same question on every Asthma video.
