Allergic Asthma
____ asthma is the most common form of asthma
• Pathogenesis of asthma ○ Something in enviro is driving this ○ Pollen is high > depending on year, may be more stable than other parts ○ Dendritic cells (APC) > takes up pollen and presents to T cells; dendritic cell starts releasing interleukins § T cell starts setting off with the IL > priming the \_\_\_\_ cells > makes the antibodies (\_\_\_\_) § Plasma sees pollen as foreign > will react and attack it □ Release IgE > genetic framework: sees the pollen as the \_\_\_\_ invader ® Specific to the allergen □ IgE contacts \_\_\_\_ ® Mast cells degranulate ® Floating around blood with \_\_\_\_, LTs, \_\_\_\_, and ready to release at any point ® Does release once \_\_\_\_ tells them to do it ® \_\_\_\_ try to affect this process □ \_\_\_\_ also participate, to a lesser degree
allergic plasma IgE foreign mast cells histamines PGs IgE antihistamines eosinophils
Asthma
Airway Hyperresponsiveness
o Excessive contractile response of ____ in asthma results in inordinate ____ and airflow obstruction in response to relatively little provocation
o Direct Stimuli of airway smooth muscle: ____, leukotrienes, and ____
• Once mast cells degranulate > impact the airway/lungs ○ Right: airway from reactive process § Muscle tone has changed □ Every time the patient with asthma has reacted > asthma attack > the SM in the airway become thickened (hypertrophic) in a bad way □ Instead of healthy lung § Secretions building up histamines (stimulating the production of secretions), and from the mediators > the SM will contract > the airway becomes narrow, and has thickened mucus □ This is an obstructive process • Planning on an IV sedation, oral sedation ○ Give the patient a medication that is going to weaken/suppress their ability to breathe ○ \_\_\_\_ outside > irritant; and some pollen § Coming in, and their airways are starting to become reactive § Now > sedated > become more \_\_\_\_, and give more sedative § Now the lung is more suppressed > and this process is undergoing > wheezing in the middle of a procedure
airway smooth muscle bronchoconstriction histamine prostaglandins cold day anxious
Asthma

prevented
COPD
• Emphysema ○ Lung loses its \_\_\_\_ ○ Lung as expire and inspire > inflates and deflates ○ Here > inflates, but never \_\_\_\_ § Lost recoil ability ○ \_\_\_\_ (the CXR) § Lost alveolar structure § Lost integrity § From chronic \_\_\_\_
• Bronchitis ○ Wet lung, but not in the lung, but in the tubing of the lung § Not pulmonary edema ○ Ton of \_\_\_\_ in lung ○ Chronic irritation and inflammation of lung > \_\_\_\_, and inflammation of the lung > happens in \_\_\_\_ airway > trachea and bronchi; or \_\_\_\_ airway which are the bronchioles § A lot of mucus in lungs ○ Little elasticity because it's so expanded • Obstructive processes
elasticity
deflates
hyperexpansion
smoking
secretions
hypersecretion
