Nebulised DNase in the treatment of life threatening asthma.

James H K Hull1, Nick Castle, Ronald K Knight, Timothy B L Ho.   

Abstract

A 25-year-old pregnant patient developed life-threatening asthma refractory to all standard treatment including anaesthetic agents. Ventilatory pressures continued to rise with impending cardio-respiratory arrest. The introduction of nebulised endotracheal DNase however resulted in a rapid and dramatic improvement with good clinical outcome.
