Q

Pathophysio

Asthma:
* Allergen from an environmental trigger picked up by what?
* What do the cells present them to?
* What is released after that?

A
  • Allergen from an environmental trigger picked up by dendritic cells
  • Dendritic cells present them to TH2 cells
  • TH2 cells release cytokines causing inflammation-> Cytokines (IL4 and IL5)

Q

Pathophysio

What does IL4 and IL5 cause?

A

IL4
* Stimulates B-cells to produce IgE which binds to Fc€RI receptors on mast cells
* Mast cells use phospholipase A2 to produce arachidonic acid (AA)
* AA metabolized by:
* COX to prostaglandins
* 5-LOX to leukotrienes

IL5
* Activates eosinophils
* Promotes immune response by releasing more cytokines and leukotrienes

Q

ASTHMA – GOALS OF TREATMENT
* Reduce impairment: Prevent what, require what, normal what?

A
  • Prevent chronic symptoms (if no txt: damage)
  • Require minimal use of reliever (ex: SABA)

Q

Medication definitions
* What is a reliever?
* What is a controller? Use with what?
* What is maintenance treatment?

A

Reliever
* For symptom relief or before exercise or allergen exposure

Controller (kinda like a mix of reliever and maintence)
* For symptom control and exacerbation risk
* Used with ICS-containing treatment

Maintenance treatment
* Used daily to prevent symptoms and exacerbations (e.g., twice a day)
