Objective To evaluate the effect of budesonide combined with formoterol powder in the emergency treatment of patients with severe bronchial asthma. Methods From July 2017 to June 2019, with the reference of the random number table method, 40 patients with severe bronchial asthma who received the emergency treatment in a hospital were divided into two groups, with 20 cases in each group. The control group was treated with budesonide, and the observation group was treated with formoterol powder on the basis of control group. Both groups were treated for 1 month, The C reactive protein (CRP), blood routine level, and pulmonary function index were observed and compared between the two groups. Results During the treatment period, the average number of waking times during the night sleep in the control group was (13.55±3.25), more than that in the observation group: (5.25±0.95), and there was a significant difference between two groups (t=10.962, P<0.05). After the treatment, in the observation group, the average levels of CRP, white blood cell count, eosinophil ratio and lymphocyte ratio were as follows:(12.36±1.43) mg/L, (6.31±1.05)×109/L, (4.82±2.03)%, and (20.06±2.48)%, which were lower than those in the control group: (15.98±1.95) mg/L, (8.59±1.34)×109/L, (6.79±2.68)%, and (25.09±3.12)%, and the differences were statistically significant (t=6.695, 5.990, 2.621, 5.644, all P<0.05). After the treatment, the average levels of FEV1, PEF and FEV1/FCV in the observation group were as follows: (2.51±0.70) L, (3.28±0.75) L/s, (75.38±8.49), which were higher than those in the control group: (2.02±0.52) L, (2.76±0.66) L/s, (62.63±6.89)%, and the differences were statistically significant (t=2.513, 2.328, 5.215, all P<0.05). Conclusion Budesonide combined with formoterol dry powder is effective in the treatment of severe bronchial asthma, it can effectively improve CRP, blood routine, and lung function of the patients.
