Conclusions: In critically ill adult patients, nebulized albuterol and ipratropium does not cause significant tachycardia or tachyarrhythmias. Substitution of levalbuterol for albuterol to avoid tachycardia and tachyarrhythmias is unwarranted.

Sadly, disabled people don't just get ignored socially, they're also often not treated as people by carers who should know better. When I was in hospital for an operation for tachycardia I met a woman with CP who told me how a nurse had asked her husband, in her presence, a medical question she should have asked her directly, as though this quite intelligent woman was too dimwitted to answer for herself. The husband quite rightly said Why don't you ask her yourself?. The really stupid thing is that the question was one the husband could only have answered if his wife had told him the answer. Another lovely wheelchair-bound woman I got to know told me how she was forced onto a virtual starvation diet to control her weight (it's a lot harder to burn off calories in a wheelchair!).
I've also met one disabled person with an ugly selfish personality, although I think he probably had the personality before he got the disability by falling out of a building whilst rotten drunk.
Slightly off topic: I think they should not have changed terms from handicapped to disabled. After all, a horse with a handicap can still win a race, and a golfer with a handicap can still win the game, but disabled seems just too absolute.
