No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The primary objective of the study is to show that ventilation heterogeneity identified by hyperpolarized helium-3 lung MRI is prevalent children with poorly controlled asthma despite guidelines-based treatment with ICS. The secondary objective is to demonstrate whether or not eight weeks of treatment with extra-fine particle ICS (HFA-BDP) improves ventilation heterogeneity compared to treatment with a coarse particle ICS (fluticasone HFA or dry powder).
