Abstract

This article examines the effects of inhaled salbutamol on the cardiac electrical system in children. The study found that salbutamol inhalation led to changes in heart rate and certain electrocardiogram parameters, indicating a potential increased risk of arrhythmias. The study emphasizes the need for cautious use of high doses of salbutamol in children with asthma. The researchers also found that salbutamol can affect the T wave axis in the heart, increasing the risk of cardiac re-entry and arrhythmias. It is important to note that these findings may not apply to all populations and further research is needed. [Extracted from the article]
