Background/Objective: Bronchospasm, caused by asthma and other related conditions, is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality commonly managed by emergency medical services (EMS). We aimed to evaluate the quality of prehospital management of bronchospasm by EMS in the US.Methods: The National EMS Information System Public Release Research dataset, a nationwide convenience sample of prehospital patient care report data from 2018 to 2019, was used to capture 9-1-1 activations where patients aged ≥2 years were treated and transported by EMS for suspected bronchospasm. First, we described the extent to which EMS care met eight quality measures identified from available statewide EMS protocols, existing quality measures, and national guidelines. Second, we quantified the extent of risk-standardized agency-level variation in administration of inhaled beta agonists and systemic corticosteroids using logistic regression models, accounting for patient characteristics, severity, and clustering by agencies. Third, we compared rates of completed prehospital interventions between pediatric (age <18 years) versus adult patients using two-sample t-tests.Results: A total of 1,336,988 EMS encounters for suspected bronchospasm met inclusion criteria. Median age of patients was 66 years, with only 4% pediatric; 55% were female. Advanced life support (ALS) units managed 94% of suspected bronchospasm. Respiratory rate (98%) and pulse oximetry (96%) were documented in nearly all cases. Supplemental oxygen was administered to hypoxic patients by 65% of basic life support (BLS) and 73% of ALS units. BLS administered inhaled beta-agonist therapy less than half the time (48%), compared to 77% by ALS. ALS administered inhaled anticholinergic therapy in 38% of cases, and systemic corticosteroids in 19% of cases. Pediatric patients were significantly less likely to receive supplemental oxygen when hypoxic, inhaled beta-agonists, inhaled anticholinergics, or systemic corticosteroids.Conclusions: We found important gaps in recent EMS practice for prehospital care of suspected bronchospasm. We highlight three targets for improvement: inhaled beta-agonist administration by BLS, systemic corticosteroid administration by ALS, and increased interventions for pediatric patients. These findings indicate important areas for research, protocol modification, and quality improvement efforts to improve EMS management of bronchospasm.
