The document discusses asthma and status asthmaticus. It defines asthma as a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways characterized by airway hyperresponsiveness, mucosal edema, and mucus production. Status asthmaticus is described as a life-threatening emergency that occurs when bronchospasm does not respond to conventional therapy and can lead to worsening hypoxemia. The document covers the clinical manifestations, diagnostic findings, medical management including quick-relief medications and long-acting control medications, nursing management, and complications of both asthma and status asthmaticus.

Asthma
Complications of asthma can be sudden. Consider the case of Bradley Wilson, a young boy who had several medical conditions. He appeared in good health when he went to school, returned home, and ate dinner. However, when he later went outside to play, he came back inside wheezing. An ambulance took him to the hospital where he was pronounced dead (Briscoe, 2012). In another case, 10-year-old Dynasty Reese, who had mild asthma, woke up in the middle of the night and ran to her grandfather’s bedroom to tell him she couldn’t breathe. By the time paramedics arrived, she had passed out and was pronounced dead at the hospital (Glissman, 2012). These situations continue to outline the importance of recognizing symptoms of asthma and providing immediate treatment, as well as distinguishing minor symptoms from serious, life-threatening symptoms. Since these symptoms and attacks are often induced by a trigger, as an advanced practice nurse, you must be able to help patients identify their triggers and recommend appropriate treatment options. For this reason, you need to understand the pathophysiological mechanisms of chronic asthma and acute asthma exacerbation.
To Prepare
Review “Asthma” in Chapter 27 of the Huether and McCance text. Identify the pathophysiological mechanisms of chronic asthma and acute asthma exacerbation. Consider how these disorders are similar and different.
Select one of the following factor: gender, ethnicity, or behavior. Think about how the factor you selected might impact the pathophysiology of both disorders. Reflect on how you would diagnose and prescribe treatment of these disorders for a patient based on the factor you selected.
Construct two mind maps—one for chronic asthma and one for acute asthma exacerbation. Consider the epidemiology and clinical presentation of both chronic asthma and acute asthma exacerbation.
To Complete
Write a 2 pages paper that addresses the following:
Describe the pathophysiological mechanisms of chronic asthma and acute asthma exacerbation. Be sure to explain the changes in the arterial blood gas patterns during an exacerbation.
Explain how the factor you selected might impact the pathophysiology of both disorders. Describe how you would diagnose and prescribe treatment for a patient based on the factor you selected.
Construct two mind maps—one for chronic asthma and one for acute asthma exacerbation. Include the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and clinical presentation, as well as the diagnosis and treatment you explained in your paper.

As a registered nurse working as a case manager within the home health care setting, I have had the opportunity to provide care to patients diagnosed with various respiratory disorders. A majority of the patients I have worked with were diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). COPD is defined as a common preventable and treatable disease characterized by persistent airflow limitation that is usually progressive and associated with an enhanced chronic inflammatory response in the airways and the lung to noxious particles or gases (Huether, 2017). Two important facts regarding this respiratory disorder include the following:
COPD is the third leading cause of death in the United States accounting for 138,080 deaths in 2010.
In 2010, the cost of COPD in the United States was estimated to be nearly $50 billion, including nearly $30 billion in direct health care expenditures.
These figures detail the staggering numbers of patients living with COPD and the significant impact on patients, families, communities and the health care system.
During the time that I worked with COPD patients, one of the respiratory disorders of particular interest was emphysema. I wanted to make sure I understood the disease process so I could provide the most appropriate care and teaching to my patients, families and caregivers. Emphysema is abnormal permanent enlargement of gas-exchange airways (acini) accompanied by destruction of alveolar walls without obvious fibrosis (Huether, 2017). Furthermore, the American Lung Association defined emphysema as the gradual damage of lung tissue, specifically thinning and destruction of the alveoli or air sacs (
www.lung.org
). I often used this definition with patients to help them understand how this respiratory disorder effects the body. The pathophysiology of emphysema includes the following:
Air sacs are destroyed in emphysema, making it progressively difficult to breathe.
Emphysema is usually accompanied by chronic bronchitis, with almost-daily or daily cough and phlegm.
Cigarette smoking is the major cause of emphysema.
People with emphysema experience shortness of breath with activities
It is not curable, but there are treatments that can help you manage the disease (www.lung.org).
Medication management of emphysema varies depending upon severity of the disease. Initial drug therapy selection depends on COPD severity, symptoms, and exacerbation risk. In addition, medication therapy may be based upon Global Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) guidelines which categorized COPD into four groups (A, B, C, D) ranging from low risk, less symptoms to high risk, high symptoms (Arcangelo, 2017). Medications may include the following:
Short-acting beta2 agonists, short-acting anticholinergics, combination of short-acting anticholinergic and short-acting beta2-adrenergic agonists, long-acting beta2-agonists, l ...

This chap.
Asthma is a common chronic disease characterized by respiratory symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. These symptoms are usually associated with airflow limitation due to inflammation and airway constriction. Asthma is a significant global health issue, impacting millions of people and causing considerable morbidity.It is known for its heterogeneity and its pathophysiology involves a complex interplay of genetic, environmental factors, leading to inflammation, airway hyperresponsiveness and airway remodeling. Grasping the severity of asthma is crucial for tailoring treatment strategies effectively. Treatment of asthma aims to achieve symptom control , improve ling function and prevent its worsening. The pharmacologic treatment of asthma typically involves a stepwise approach based on severity and frequency of symptoms. For intermittent asthma , short -acting beta agonists (SABAs) are commonly used for quick relief of symptoms and for persevere asthma , inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are main stay of treatment to reduce airway inflammation and prevent axacerbations. In more severe cases or when ICS alone are not sufficient ,a combination therapy of ICS with long - acting beta agonists (LABAs) is recommended to provide both anti-inflammatory and broncodilator effects.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

4. Facts
The most common chronic disease of childhood,
asthma can occur at any age
Despite the development of knowledge and
treatment, the death rate from the disease
continues to rise.
Allergy is the strongest predisposing factor for
asthma.

11. Prevention
Patient with recurrent asthma should undergo test to
identify the substances that precipitate the
symptoms.
Patients are instructed to avoid the causative agents
whenever possible.
Knowledge is the key of quality asthma care
Evaluation of risk are the key in the control.

13. Medical management
Immediate intervention may be necessary, because
continuing and progressive dyspnea leads to anxiety
which increase the situation.
Pharmacologic therapy
1. Quick- Relief Medication
2. Long – Acting Control Medications

14. 1. Quick- Relief Medications:
A. Short- acting beta2- adrenergic agonists…. Used to
relief acute symptoms and prevention of exerciseInduced asthma. Also to relax the smooth muscles
{ albuterol}
B. Anticholinergics…. Counteract
bronchoconstriction
Inhibit the mascarinic cholinergic receptors ,,,,used for
patient who do not tolerate short acting beta2adrenergic agonists. E.g (ipratropium bromide
(atrovent).

14
Textbook of Medical Surgical Nursing (12th ed.)
15. 2. Long – Acting Control Medications
1. Corticosteroids: most potent and effective
anti inflammatory medication. Improve the
airway function and decrease the peak
flow variability. E.g cromolyn sodium, it
used to stabilize mast cells and works as
prophylactic basis to prevent exercise induced asthma or unavoidable exposure
to known trigger.

16. Long – Acting Control Medications
2. long- acting beta2- adrenergic agonists used
with anti-inflammatoy medications to control
asthma symptoms particularly those occur at
night. E.g theophylline.

17. Management of Exacerbation
Asthma exacerbation are best managed by early
treatment and education.
Quick – acting beta2 adrenergic agonist medication
are used first to relief of airflow obstruction
Systemic corticosteroids may be necessary to
decrease airway inflammation in patient who fail to
respond to inhaled beta-adrenergic medication.
Oxygen supplementation may be required to relieve
hypoxemia.

18. Nursing management
The immediate nursing care of patients with
asthma depends on the severity of symptoms.
Calm approach
The nurse assesses the patient’s respiratory
status by monitoring the severity of
symptoms, breath sounds, peak flow, pulse
oximetery and vital signs.

Ineffective Breathing Pattern r/t
bronchospasm
Anxiety r/t fear of suffocating, difficulty in
breathing, death.

20. Nursing Intervention:
Obtains a history of allergic reactions to
medications before administering medications
Identifies medications the patient is currently
taking
Administers medications as prescribed and
monitors the patients responses to those
medications. These medications may include an
antibiotic if the patient has an underlying
respiratory infection.
Administers fluids if the patient is dehydrated as
prescribed.

Main focus of nursing management is to actively
assess the airway and the patients response to
treatment.
Monitoring the patient for the fist 12 to 24 hours, until
the situation control.
Assess the patient’s skin turgor for signs of
dehydration
( fluid intake is essential to combat dehydration, to
loosen secretions )
Nurse administer IV fluid as prescribed.
Vital signs to be monitored.
Patient room should be free of respiratory irritants.
