2nd Non-acute attack of asthma severity and long-term evaluation of treatment programs
Clinical features of disease classification needed to control symptoms long-term treatment of drug-election
Intermittent Intermittent symptoms <1 time per week, short episodes (hours ~ a few days), nighttime asthma symptoms ≤ 2 times per month, between episodes of asymptomatic, normal lung function, PEF or FEV1 ≥ 80% predicted value, PEF variability<20% of the intermittent use of quick relief medicine on demand: If inhaled short-acting β2-agonist drug strength depends on the severity of symptoms, inhaled corticosteroids may be required as needed inhaled  2-agonists. Or oral  2-agonists, oral low-dose sustained-release theophylline may quantitative daily inhaled corticosteroid dose (<200  g / day) or consider oral leukotriene.
Mild symptoms ≥ 1 time per week but <1 time per day, episodes may affect activity and sleep, nocturnal asthma symptoms “2 times per month, PEF or FEV1 ≥ expected to include 80%, PEF variation from 20 to 30% % with a long-term prevention of drug use: the use of anti-inflammatory drugs can be added to a long-acting bronchodilators (particularly for the control of nocturnal symptoms)
will moderate daily symptoms, attacks activity and sleep, nocturnal asthma symptoms interfere with “1 week, PEF or FEV1> 60% <80% are expected,> PEF variation rates of 30% of the daily application of long-term preventive medications: glucocorticoid If inhaled, daily short-acting β2-agonists and (or) long-acting bronchodilators (particularly for the control of nocturnal symptoms) Quantitative daily inhaled corticosteroids (200 of 600  g / day) inhaled. On-demand inhaled  2-agonists. ineffective when dissecting small dose of oral sustained-release theophylline and / or controlled release oral  2-agonist tablets. Nocturnal asthma can be long acting  2-agonists or inhaled anticholinergic agents was added.
Severe symptoms of frequent attacks, frequent nocturnal asthma attack, heavily influenced by sleep, physical activity limitation, PEF, FEV1 <60% predicted value, PEF variation rates> 30% of the daily use of a variety of long-term prevention of drug use, high-dose inhaled corticosteroids, long-acting bronchodilator drugs and (or) long-term oral high-dose inhaled corticosteroids corticosteroids ( 600  g / day). Act of inhaled  2-agonists, oral administration of  2-agonists may lead to increased release tablets and sustained-release theophylline, if necessary, further inhalation of  2-agonists, anticholinergics combined, and some patients take oral corticosteroids. Can try some new drugs or therapies, such as the combination of leukotriene agent.
Note: A patient can also be the characteristics of different severity levels should be included among the more serious level.
Table 3 Principles of asthma management and clinical treatment strategies
Clear diagnosis and monitoring the effectiveness of the treatment goals for asthma comprehensive treatment of basic clinical treatment strategy measures
1st Early atypical (for example: cough variant asthma), or coexist with other diseases (such as: patients with chronic bronchitis with asthma), should be carried out by the bronchial challenge test or exercise test, bronchial dilation test, PEF monitoring or pulmonary function before and after the treatment series of changes in diagnosis.
2nd Note that the identification of obstructive airway diseases, such as tracheal intima tuberculosis, cancer, etc.. 1st Full control over the symptoms.
fnd To prevent or deter attacks.
3rd Individual lung function close to the best value.
4th Normal activity.
5th To avoid adverse drug effects.
6th Prevent irreversible airway obstruction.
7th Prevention of asthma death. 1st Long-term anti-inflammatory therapy is the basis of the treatment, the preferred inhaled corticosteroid.
2nd Medium of choice for the relief of symptoms inhaled  2-agonists.
3rd Disease-laws after inhaled corticosteroid were not ideal, should not with inhaled long-acting  2-agonists or sustained-release theophylline or leukotriene (combination therapy) are treated, can also opt for increasing the amount of inhaled corticosteroid.
4th Patients with severe asthma, lead to the treatment or long-term recurring, intensive treatment in the preamble. The severe asthma attack, his complete control of symptoms after treatment (high-dose hormone therapy, see table above), lung function and PEF restore optimal volatility normally 2-4 days, gradually reducing the dosage of glucocorticoids. Some patients after intensive treatment phase, control of the ideal condition. 1st Elimination of the causes and factors.
2nd Disease prevention and control in combination, such as: allergic rhinitis, reflux oesophagitis far.
3rd Immunomodulatory treatment.
4th Regular checks of inhaling drugs is correct, and your physician compliance.

Diagnostic criteria of asthma

1st Repeated episodes of wheezing, was the majority of sudden attack. Some kids have the flu before the onset of the precursor of the story, or after the start of training, the history of exposure to allergens or chemical factors that stimulate, or have certain characteristics of a good season or time, often a personal or family history of allergies.
2nd While the children wheeze wheezing attack, shortness of breath, tightness in the chest by hand, or paroxysmal cough, lung. After the vote to reduce symptoms with bronchodilators or mitigate.
3rd Asthmatics> 24 hours, severe dyspnea, hypoxemia, heart failure, “the status asthmaticus”, is a critical illness can, of pulmonary failure and death.
4th Leukocytes was normal or increased, classification shows increased eosinophils. Sputum smear shows eosinophilia. Some increase in serum IgE. X-ray analysis shows that during the development of emphysema and lung cancer markers well.

Improve the clinical management of asthma in principle

To improve the effectiveness of asthma, have the clinical use of drugs, the attention paid to the program. Achievement to long-term stability must be actively treated, so that full control of symptoms, lung function at top form back then gradually decrease the dosage and long-term inhaled anti-inflammatory drugs. Moderate to severe asthma patients need long-term combination therapy (see Table 3). After the treatment for the control of the symptoms is still unsatisfactory, several factors should be considered. 1st Diagnosis: We argue that the diagnosis is correct. 2nd Treatment should be available for compliance and drug use are reviewed, corrected. done in elderly patients with chronic diseases, drug users do not follow doctor’s more than 30%. Inhaled drugs is often not correct the problems. In our study we found that no more than 50% of ambulatory patients with inhalation correctly. Detailed instructions and repeated verification of the correct use of inhalation therapy to provide the key. 3rdAdequate and combined to reduce treatment efficacy and side effects of important measures to improve. To the desired therapeutic effect, it should be observed starting at: ⑴ acute stage or treatment should be intensive phase of treatment, such that recovery of lung function to the best condition and the total control of asthma symptoms, and then the long-term treatment program .⑵ moderate to severe patients in addition to increasing the dose of inhaled anti-inflammatory drugs, the appropriate combination of long acting  2-agonists, theophylline, inhaled agent M-receptor antagonist drugs. can improve significantly when the combination therapy efficacy and reduce the drug dose only, which side effects. Recent clinical study showed that combined long-acting  2 can-agonists or a small dose of theophylline, the anti-inflammatory inhaled corticosteroids improve, but not the exact mechanism of interaction is clear.
