Treatments of croup :---most afebrile children with spasmodic croup & mild ALTB can
usually be safely effectively managed at home .
Treatments of underlying & often unsuspected G.E.R. may prevent spasmodic croup .Treatment at home by :---1-steam from a shower or bath in a close bath room. Or 2-steam from a vaporize or 3- cold steam from a nebulizer . This will result in terminating in acute laryngeal spasm & respiratory distress within minutes ( same effect by cold night air )
Also can use IPECAC to induce vomiting resulting decreasing spasm, although vomiting appear to break spasm .In hypoxic infant , given O2 of less than 100% saturated with H2O vapor resulting in mucosal cooling leading vaso constriction & decrease
edema•Treatments of patients at hospital :--

•given to replace insensible H2O loss or because of inability to take oral arenteral fluid :- -p2 .feeding & decreased risk of aspiration pneumonia
• sedation is C.I ( because of restless is used as clinical indices of3- •severity of obstruction & need for tracheostomy or endotracheal intubation ) .
•children should be kept calm as possible to reduce resp. effort4- •-O2 to alleviate hypoxia ( humidified O2 )5
• brocho-dilator & expectorant are not helpful & A.B. is not indicated 6- •-Racemic epinphrine ( o.25 -0.75 ml of 2.25% in 3 ml normal saline can be used 7
• every 20 minutes causing transient relief of symptoms through vasoconstriction of precapillary arteriol leading fluid resorption from interstitial space and decrease edema .
