Asthma

Asthma chronic inflammatory disease of respiratory tract. If there is a predisposition inflammation causes recurrent attacks of cough, reached, there is a sense sdavleniya chest, breathing difficulties. Inflammation makes respiratory tract sensitive to allergens, chemical irritants, tobacco smoke, cold air or physical. In their effects are swelling and causes respiratory tract, they generated a higher amount of oxygen and become giperchuvstvitelnymi to external shocks. Emerging with bronchial obstruction is reversible (although some patients did not completely) as spontaneously, and under the influence of treatment. If an adequate treatment of asthma, inflammation can be reduced for a long time, and frequency of symptoms of the disease become a minimum : disappearing the attendant problems associated with asthma. Asthma is characterized by heightened sensitivity to various allergens bronchi, as well as nonspecific irritation. In the modern classification providing three main forms of the disease : neinfektsionno- allergic (Substantiation), allergic and infectious mixed. For gravity flow distinguish light, medium and heavy bronchial asthma. Disease tends to happen in classic form : a stroke suffocation, alternating with periods of remission. It is usually possible to identify four periods : predpristupny, attack, and postpristupny mezhpristupny. In severe asthma during not only individual claims, but also asthmatic condition. In some cases, bronchial asthma has a bronchitis attack. The predominant form of asthma in children with atopic is in the pathogenesis of allergic reaction I immediately type leaking reaginovyh antibody synthesis. Of causally significant allergens first owned home dust, which includes vysokoallergenny kind of mite Dermatophagoides (about 50%), the second-pollen plants (about 30%). For 35% of patients the disease causes domestic dust and pollen, in 20-40% of cases of atopic asthma accompanies food allergies, especially among young children. In recent years, an increasing number of cases of allergy It'sa allergens. In addition to the effects became non-significant allergens provoke great importance in the development of suffocation attacks are acute respiratory infections. It is known that infections dramatically increase sensitivity to allergens bronchi and other irritants, increased permeability barriers violate work mukotsiliarnogo apparatus bronchi. Where adherence to a viral infection bacterial inflammatory process in the bronchi is increasing and is of mixed (allergic and infectious). Asthma suffocation often provoked and nonspecific effects such as meteorology, atmospheric pollution, physical effort, emotional, strong smells. Clinical presentation Pristupy suffocation often develops at night or in the pre-dawn hours. Emerging day stroke caused by contact with allergens and irritants. Asthma suffocation begins with a painful cough with sputum difficult waste, appear ekspiratornaya dyspnoea to attend breath support muscles, distance reached. In light of both parties listened to a variety of dry and wet raznokalibernye reached, mainly breath. There tachycardia, increased blood pressure
