Abstract
The article by Harfi, Hanissian, and Crawford on the treatment of status asthmaticus in children with high doses and conventional doses of methylprednisolone, which appeared in the June 1978 issue of Pediatrics, was most disturbing both from the methodologic approach and the subsequent discussion. Failure to measure theophyllin levels during this study of at least 65 hours duration appears to be quite illogical since most, if not all, the aminophyllin has been metabolized and excreted in six to eight hours.
