Definition by GINA The Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) was established by the World Health Organization and the US National Heart Lung and Blood institute in 1993 to improve asthma awareness, prevention, and management worldwide. https://ginasthma.org /

Russian Respiratory Society https://spulmo.ru /

Definition A chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways in which many cells and cellular elements play a role. The chronic inflammation is associated with airway hyper‐responsiveness that leads to recurrent episodes of wheezing , breathlessness, chest tightness and coughing particularly at night or early morning . These episodes are usually associated with widespread, but variable airflow obstruction within the lung that is often reversible either spontaneously or with treatment.

Epidemiology Most common chronic disease currently affecting appx. 300 million people worldwide 10 ‐ 12% of adults 15 % of children boys than girls(2:1) women than men attacks can last minutes to days, and can become dangerous if the airflow becomes severely restricted

Risk factors Atopy – Major risk factor – The body’s predisposition to develop an antibody ( IgE ) in response to exposure to environmental allergens - IgE can be measured in the blood – Includes allergic rhinitis, asthma, hay fever, and eczema

С auses / Risk factors

Some allergens may cause asthma

Trigger-factors Provoke bronchospasm 1.Allergens 2.Exercise and hyperventilation 3.Viral infection 4.Emotional stress 5.Cold air 6.Aspirin,b-blockers

Pathogenesis Asthma inflammation : Cell and mediators

Pathogenesis Asthma inflammation : Cell and mediators

Mechanism of bronchspasm

R eversible components of bronchial obstruction 1. Mucosal edema 2. Hypersecretion 3. Spasm smooth

Irreversible components of bronchial obstruction 1. Expiratory collapse of small bronchi due to developing emphysema 2. Tracheobronchial dyskinesia 3. Obliteration of the bronchial lumen due to peribronchial fibrosis

Summary I nflammation Remodeling • Inflammation • Airway Hypersecretion • Subepithelial fibrosis

Aspirin Induced Asthma Aspirin-induced asthma is a type of asthma triggered by aspirin. It is also triggered by other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like ibuprofen. Aspirin-induced asthma is also called aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD)

Asthma Sensitivity to aspirin and other NSAIDs Sinus infection with nasal polyps Aspirin Induced Asthma

Aspirin and other NSAIDs work by blocking an enzyme called COX-1. This reduces inflammation and relieves pain. But blocking COX-1 decreases anti-inflammatory prostaglandins. It also increases pro-inflammatory leukotrienes. This can lead to acute asthma and allergy-like reactions. Aspirin Induced Asthma

Allergic asthma Non allergic asthma Asthma with late onset Asthma in obese patients Classification according phenotype

Classification

Classification

1. Emphysema 2. Pneumosclerosis 3 .Spontaneous pneumothorax 4 . L ung atelectasis 5 .Cor pulmonale 6 . Asthmatic status!!! 7.Respiratory failure Complications of Asthma

Sample of Diagnosis Allergic asthma, moderate stage, controlled course. Allergic rhinitis, mild. Sensitization to house dust mites allergens. Respiratory failure 1. Non-allergic asthma, moderate, insufficiently controlled. Recurrent polyposis sinusitis. Intolerance to NSAIDs ("aspirin triad"). Non-allergic asthma, moderate uncontrolled course, severe exacerbation. Asthmatic status, compensated stage. Obesity II.

Clinical presentation of Asthma 1. Wheezing (a whistling sound as air is forcibly expelled ) 2. Difficulty breathing (expiratory)! 3. Chest tightness 4. A persistent cough ( Cough variant asthma (CVA) is a form of asthma, which presents solely with cough)

In “classic asthma” variable airflow obstruction typically leads to symptoms such as wheeze, dyspnea and cough . CVA is a subtype of asthma that usually presents solely with cough without any other symptoms such as dyspnea or wheezing . In cough-predominant asthma cough is the most predominant symptom but other symptoms are also present such as dyspnea and/or wheeze. Cough variant asthma ( CVA)

Symptoms of a severe asthma attack can include: 1. Ex peratory shortness of breath 2. Chest tightness 3. R apid pulse 4. Sweating 5. Flared nostrils and pursed lips 6.N eed to sit upright 7.B luish discoloration of the lips and fingernails Clinical presentation of Asthma

Inspection finding Pursed lips Tripod position- siting forward and bracing arms on table

Inspection finding Warm (central cyanosis) Barrel-like chest Change in nails ("watch glasses") and thickening of the terminal phalanges ("drumsticks" of the hands and feet)

Diagnostic proc e dure for asthma

Spirography is Gold standard for diagnosis It is obligatory to determine: vital capacity of the lungs (VC), forced vital capacity of the lungs (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), the most indicative is FEV1 / FVC ( Tiffno's ratio). A normal ratio is 70% to 80%.

Bronchodilator test To study the reversibility of obstruction - a test with inhaled bronchodilators, their effect on flow-volume curve readings, mainly per forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) 400 μ g (4 doses) of a short-acting beta2-agonist (salbutamol, fenoterol ) through a dosing balloon with a spacer, assessment of FEV1 after 15-30 minutes 80 mcg (4 doses) short-acting anticholinergic (ipratropium bromide)

Spirometry should be done – at the time of initial assessment – after treatment is initiated and symptoms and peak expiratory flow (PEF) have been stabilized – at least every 1 to 2 years to assess the maintenance of airway function

Significant bronchodilatory response should exceed spontaneous variability, as well as the response to bronchodilators in healthy individuals . Therefore, the increase in FEV1 ≥ 12% of the due and ≥ 200 ml is recognized as a marker of a positive bronchodilatory response; it means that bronchial obstruction is reversible .

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways which develops under the allergens influence, associates with bronchial hyperresponsiveness and reversible obstruction and manifests with attacks of dyspnea, breathlessness, cough, wheezing, chest tightness and Wheezing more expressed at breathing-out. Differentiated diagnosis COPD and Asthma

Differentiated diagnosis COPD and Asthma

Key indicators for considering a diagnosis of asthma • Intermittent symptoms ( reversible ) • Association of symptoms to weather changes , dust , smoke , exercise , viral infection , animals with fur or feathers , house-dust mites , mold , pollen , strong emotional expression ( laughing or crying hard ), airborne chemicals or dust • Presence of atopy , allergic rhinitis , skin allergies • Family history

Goals of Asthma Therapy 1.Prevent recurrent exacerbations and minimize the need for emergency department visits or hospitalizations 2. Maintain (near‐) “normal” pulmonary function 3. Maintain normal activity levels (including exercise and other physical activity) 4.Provide optimal pharmacotherapy with minimal or no adverse effects 5. Prevent asthma mortality

Component 1: Develop Patient/Doctor Partnership 1.Educate continually, i nclude the family 2 . Provide information about asthma 3. Provide training on self-management skills 4. Emphasize a partnership among health care providers , the patient, and the patient’s family

Component 2: Identify and Reduce Exposure to Risk Factors 1. Measures to prevent the development of asthma, and asthma exacerbations by avoiding or reducing exposure to risk factors should be implemented wherever possible. 2. Asthma exacerbations may be caused by a variety of risk factors – allergens, viral infections, pollutants and drugs . 3. Reducing exposure to some categories of risk factors improves the control of asthma and reduces medications needs.

Component 2: Identify and Reduce Exposure to Risk Factors 1. Reduce exposure to indoor allergens 2. Avoid tobacco smoke 3. Avoid vehicle emission 4. Identify irritants in the workplace 5. Explore role of infections on asthma development , especially in children and young infants

Component 3: Assess, Treat and Monitor Asthma Asthma drug classification

Methods of Medication Delivery 1. Metered-dose inhaler (MDI) 2. Spacer/holding chamber/face mask 3. Dry-powder inhaler (DPI) 4. Nebulizer 5. Oral Medication ( Tablets , Liquids ) 6. Intravenous Medication ( Corticosteroids, Euphylline )

Inhaled Corticosteroids Treatment of choice for long-term control of persistent asthma Benefits 1. Reduced airway inflammation through topical activity 2. Decreases airway hyper-responsiveness. 3. Improve lung function and quality of life 4. Reduce the frequency of exacerbations 5. Reduced use of quick-relief medicine

Inhaled Corticosteroids

Combination Inhaled Corticosteroid and Bronchodilator Inhalers Symbicort ( formoterol and bedesonide ) Advair ( salmeterol and fluticasone)

Corticosteroid Side Effects

Bronchodilators The main groups of drugs: Anticholinergics B2 agonists Theophylline Combined drugs The choice of therapy depends on the availability of the drug, the individual "response" of the patient, taking into account the reduction of symptoms and the manifestation of side effects .

Bronchodilate by long-term stimulation of beta2 receptors Advantages 1. Blunt exercise induced symptoms for longer time 2. Decrease nocturnal symptoms 3. Improve quality of life 4. Combination therapy beneficial when added to inhaled corticosteroids 5. Decrease the need to increase inhaled corticosteroid dose by dose Bronchodilators

Mechanism action of beta2 agonist Relax bronchial smooth muscle (stimulation beta 2 R in bronchi) 1. Inhibit mediator release from mast cells , eosinophils, macrophages 2. Decrease mucous secretion 3. Increase mucociliary transport 4. Inhibit bronchial oedema 5. Inhibit cholinergic transmisssion 6. Decrease airway hyper responsivenes

Short-Acting Beta 2-Agonists Most effective medication for relief of acute bronchospasm Preferably use inhaled rather than oral preparations Increased need for these medications indicates uncontrolled asthma (and inflammation) Regularly scheduled use not generally recommended – use “as needed ” May lower effectiveness May increase airway hyperresponsiveness

Side Effects: 1. Increased Heart Rate 2. Palpitations 3. Nervousness 4. Sleeplessness 5. Headache 6. Tremor Short-Acting Beta 2-Agonists

Bronchodilators

1. Cysteinyl Leukotriene Receptor Antagonists Montelukast – Once a day in PM Zafirlukast – Twice daily – Empty Stomach 2. 5-Lipoxygenase inhibitors Zileuton – Four times daily Leukotriene Modifiers

Montelukast 1. Improves lung function and asthma control 2. May protect against exercise induced bronchoconstriction 3.
