ConclusionAlbuterol and levalbuterol both cause a significant increase in V ’O2 and HR. There was no significant difference between albuterol and levalbuterol regarding the maximum increase in V ’O2. There was a statistically significant but likely clinically insignificant difference in maximum increase in HR in patients with adequate oxygen delivery when comparing albuterol to levalbuterol.
