Prevalence of astma (A) and asthmatic symptoms (B) between 1965 and 2005 in children and young adults
Asthma morbidity in Hungary PREVALENCE 310 240 INCIDENCE 13 875 Korányi Bulletin, 2018
Medical history of D. B. • 30 -year-old woman, school teacher • Complaints for 20 years: periods of S. O. B. , particularly in the August-October period, but also during exercise (tennis), cold air exposure (skie) or under stress (exams). • Severity changes considerably time to time, with frequent attacks of wheezing, between attacks no complaints • Never smoked • Mother also had asthma
Acute admission • Severe attack which responded poorly to BD drugs, despite regular inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) • Exhausted, dehydrated, very anxious • On examination: dyspneic, orthopneic, accessory muscles of respiration were active • Lungs hyperinflated, musical rhonchi in all areas • HR: 110/min with pulsus paradoxus • Sputum scant and viscous
Asthma - inflammatory disorder of the airways, characterized by periodic attacks of wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and cough, tipically during the night and early morning. - a condition characterized by recurrent attacks of bronchoconstriction and excessive mucus production, in response to a variety of factors. - the attacks releave spontaneously or by inhaled bronchodilators - chronic inflammation results in bronchial hyperreactivity
Asthma – variable nature allergenes, viruses cold weather, exercise increases Use os releaver, symptom time Asthma control decreases Exacerbation
Prevalence 3 -5% of adults and 7 -10% of children. *Half of the people with asthma develop it before age 10 and most develop it before age 30. Asthma symptoms can decrease over time, especially in children. Concomittant diseases Many people with bronchial asthma have an individual and/or family history of allergies such as hay fever (allergic rhinitis) or eczema. Others have no history of allergies or evidence of allergic problems.

Etiology * In sensitive individuals, asthma symptoms can be triggered by inhaled allergens (allergy triggers) such as pet dander, dust mites, cockroach allergens, pollens. * Asthma symptoms can also be triggered by respiratory infections, exercise, cold air, tobacco smoke and other pollutants, stress, food or drug allergies. * Aspirin and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAID) provoke asthma in some patients

Clinical characteristics of asthma
Symptoms 1. *Most people with asthma have periodic wheezing attacks separated by symptom-free periods. *Some asthmatics have chronic shortness of breath with episodes of increased shortness of breath. *Asthma attacks can last minutes to days, and can become dangerous if the airflow becomes severely restricted
Symptoms 2. Cough, Wheezing, Dyspnoe - usually begins suddenly - episodic - may be worse at night or in early morning - aggravated by exposure to cold air, by exercise, by reflux - resolves spontaneously or by bronchodilators - cough with or without sputum (dyscrinia) - breathing that requires increased work - intercostal retractions - abnormal breathing pattern: exhalation (breathing out) more than twice as long as inspiration (breathing in)
Dyscrinia
Symptoms 3. Emergency symptoms *extremely difficult breathing *bluish color to the lips and face *severe anxiety *rapid pulse (pulsus paradoxus) *sweating *decreased level of consciousness (severe drowsiness or confusion) during an asthma attack
Signs and tests Listening to the chest (auscultation) during an episode reveals wheezing. Lung sounds are usually normal between episodes. Tests may include: *pulmonary function tests *chest X-ray *allergy testing by skin testing or serum tests (Ig. E) *arterial blood gas *eosinophil count
Diagnostics -Lung function 1. - Between the attacks: may be normal - During the attacks: obstruction (PEF, FEV 1 decreased) - Patients with - normal lung function: provocation test - obstruction: pharmacodynamic test
Metacholin provocation test bronchial hyperreactivity
Pharmacodynamic test reversible obstruction
Lung function 2. Provocation test *Specific provocation-allergen challenge (rarely done, can be dangeorus – anaphylaxis, suffocation) inhalation causes prompt and sign. bronchoconstriction *rapid decline in FEV 1: lasts: 15 min. - 1 hour *=early asthmatic reaction (EAR)=early phase response *After this phase resolves (spontaneously or with -agonist), the FEV 1 reaches a level to the pre-chall. baseline. *6 -24 hours after exposure to the allergen bronchoconstriction can be developed=late asthmatic response (LAR). The decline in FEV 1 may be less severe. *Aspecific provocation (histamin, metacholin): *Exercise test – 6 -8 min run, pre/post spirometry Pharmacodynamic test: baseline obstr. lung function, resolved in 15 min due to inh. bronchodilator (salbutamol)
Differencial diagnostics I. Respiratory • COPD • Large airway obstruction – Foreign body – Tumor • Pulmonary embolism • Eosinophil pneumonia • Chronic cough – – Bronchitis simplex Sinusitis Tracheitis Dyskinesis Non-respiratory • CHF • Gastroesophageal reflux (GERD) • Chronic cough – Drug-induced (ACE inhibitor, -blocker)
Differencial diagnostics II. • • • X-ray (chest, sinuses) Oesophageal p. H monitoring Bronchoscopy Echocardiography CT angiography, V/Q scan

Treatment 1. Controllers (Anti-inflammatory) - ICS, inhaled corticosteroid: (budenosid, fluticasone, beclomethason, ciclesonide) - leukotriene inhibitors (montelukast, zafirlukast, pranlukast) - LABA(long acting beta-2 agonists) – salmeterol, formoterol – only with ICS - xantin derivates (teophyllin)
Treatment 2. Releavers (bronchodilators ) - beta-2 agonist: short(fast)-acting (SABA): inhaled (salbutamol, terbutalin, formoterol) - aminophylline or theophylline (I. v) - anticholinergics inhaled (ipratropium)
