Question
Answer
Asthma   chronic abnormal autonomic respons of the bronchial muscles that produce:intermittent acut bronchospasms, partial airway obstuction, chronic bronchial inflammation, edema-airway obstruction from the effects; inflammation, bronchospasm,  
🗑
Asthma   involves narrowing of small air passages of lower resp system, affects b/w 5-10% cuased by various genetic and immune system factors, asthma can lead to a chornic reduction of air flow caused by:epithelial cell damage, fibrous changes in the bronchiols  
🗑
Signs and Symptoms of Asthma   can last min hrs or days Dyspnea, chest tightness, fatigue, anxiety, coughing, wheezing, prolonged expiration, panting speech, cyanosis, practice may need to be altered peakflow of >80% good to go  
🗑
asthma triggers, eval and diagnostic testing   Triggers:allergens, smoke, infection, cold or dry air, emotional state, ex-Eval:increassed Hr, resp rate, use of accessory muscles, ascultation(wheezing-experiation, rhonchi-inspiration, decreased breath sounds), diagnostic testing:peakflow meter  
🗑
asthma treatment   Goal:limit bronchial inflammation, control symps, prevent exacerbation, maintain normal pulmonary function avoid triggers, ath instructed to sit, take deep breaths exhale through pursed lips keep them calm,  
🗑
Administastration of bronchodilator   prescribed-metered dosed inhalers(mdi), 2 doeses administerd 5 min apart, good technique and timing is important recovery should occur gradually  
🗑
Asthma management   antiinflammatory meds and bronchiodilator meds  
🗑
Anti-inflammatory   corticosteriords, masst cell stabilizers, antileukotriends, controle underlying chornic inflammation, provide long term control, taken on a daily basis, noncomplicance leads to:more frequent attacks, more scarring within lungs  
🗑
Bronchodilators   B2 agonists-provide quick relief, taken on an as needed basis, b2 goes to lunchs  
🗑
Medication Pathway   2 neurotransmitter recept involved in ANS resp control-adrenergic agonist, anticholinergic drugs, 2 classes of asthma drugs adrenegic agonist, anticholinergic drugs  
🗑
Adrenergic Agonist   activate the receptor to promote muscle relaxation of smooth muscle-bronchodilation-beta-adrenergic receptors)aka beta 2 receptors  
🗑
anticholinergic   Drugsbind with receptors w/ intent of blocking receptor activation that causes smooth muscle constriction-cronchoconstriction-anticholinergic drugs  
🗑
NSAID asthma medication   arachidonic acid-lipogenase pathway-inflammation w/ asthma, leukotrienes:cause smooth muscle contraction in bronchial tissue, antileukotriene meds-singular, accolate  
🗑
NATA reccomendations for managing asthma in ath   during PPE ath screened for asthma, AT aware of S/S suggesting ast:tight chest, cough, SOB, wheeze, limit physical activity due2 difficulty breathing, pulmonary testing indicated 4 ath w/ history of asth/athwho diagnosis of ast cant b excluded by med hist  
🗑
NATA reccomendations cont   AT familar w/pharmacological interv 4 tx,plan incorporated into overal EAP sports med service, ath w/asth have rescue inhaler @alltimes,AT have access to nebulizer 4 emergencies, alt px sites considered when possible 2 avoid allergens that trigger attack  
🗑
NATA reccomendatiosn 3   pt w/asthma regular f/u visits w/ dr 2 monitor and mod tx regimen-proper w/u provide refractory period lasting up 2 2 hrs, ath educatedon asthma: s/s, triggers, spirometry, pharm and non parm supporitve tx, MDI& nebs, need not prevent participation  
🗑
NATA recommendations 4   AT aware of other med cond that may mimic s/s of asthma ievocal cord dysfunc & UR diseases, pt w/ astha should be encouraged to exercise, At able to differentiate b/w restricted, banned and permitted asthma meds relative to participation in org comp sport  
🗑
MDI   prepare(shake, warm up), hold inhaler upright, tip head slightly, exhale slowly, place inhaler in mouth, seallips, prss down n inhaler-release meds @same time take slow deep breath, hold breath 10sec b4 exhaling, 2 puff wait 1-5min  
🗑
Peak flow meter   measure lung volume w/ventilation-analog scale indicates volume of PEF, indic of airway function, monitors effectiveness of meds, manage asth-baseline recorded over several days, take PEF immediately be4 and after ex,<80%asthma attack, <50 med emergency  
🗑
Peak Expiratory Flow   Pef- highest volume of air they can exhale  
🗑
Peak flow meter instruction   stand upright, slide indicator to base, exhale completely, take a deep breath, place mouth piece in mouth, seal lips, blow as hard &fast as you can 1x, repeat w/rest of 1min, predict readings, clean w/ warm water and soap  
🗑
