Summary

The purpose of this study was to establish the effect on pulse rate, oxygen saturation, respiratory rate, pain and anxiety levels of Fowler's and the forward-leaning positions during nebulization in children experiencing asthma attacks.

Interventions

A Randomized Controlled Study

For forward-leaning position, the child is first placed on a suitable chair with a soft pillow on their knees. The child will remain in the same position for the duration of the nebulization, and the pillow provides support, ensuring the child does not get tired. The child leans forward at an angle of 45°, places their arms on the pillow as shown in the figure and holds their head upright with their eyes facing forward (slight hyperextension). The upright head position of the child prevents spillage of the liquid medicine from the nebulizer chamber.
