Definition of Asthma

A chronic inflammatory disorder of the
airways

Many cells and cellular elements play a role

Chronic inflammation is associated with
airway hyperresponsiveness that leads to
recurrent episodes of wheezing,
breathlessness, chest tightness, and
coughing

Widespread, variable, and often reversible
airflow limitation

Burden of Asthma

Asthma is one of the most common chronic
diseases worldwide with an estimated 300
million affected individuals

Prevalence increasing in many countries,
especially in children

A major cause of school/work absence
Burden of Asthma

Health care expenditures very high

Developed economies might expect to
spend 1-2 percent of total health care
expenditures on asthma. Developing
economies likely to face increased demand

Poorly controlled asthma is expensive;
investment in prevention medication likely
to yield cost savings in emergency care

Risk Factors for Asthma

Host factors: predispose individuals to,
or protect them from, developing
asthma

Environmental factors: influence
susceptibility to development of asthma
in predisposed individuals, precipitate
asthma exacerbations, and/or cause
symptoms to persist
Factors that Exacerbate Asthma






Allergens
Respiratory infections
Exercise and hyperventilation
Weather changes
Sulfur dioxide

Asthma Management and Prevention Program
Component 2: Identify and Reduce
Exposure to Risk Factors
 Measures to prevent the development of asthma,
and asthma exacerbations by avoiding or reducing
exposure to risk factors should be implemented
wherever possible.
 Asthma exacerbations may be caused by a variety
of risk factors – allergens, viral infections,
pollutants and drugs.
 Reducing exposure to some categories of risk
factors improves the control of asthma and
reduces medications needs.
Asthma Management and Prevention Program
Component 2: Identify and Reduce
Exposure to Risk Factors

Reduce exposure to indoor allergens

Avoid tobacco smoke

Avoid vehicle emission

Identify irritants in the workplace

Explore role of infections on asthma
development, especially in children and
young infants
Asthma Management and Prevention Program
Component 3: Assess,
Treat and Monitor Asthma
The goal of asthma treatment, to
achieve and maintain clinical
control, can be achieved in a
majority of patients with a
pharmacologic intervention strategy
developed in partnership between
the patient/family and the health
care professional
Asthma Management and Prevention Program
Component 3: Assess,
Treat and Monitor Asthma
 Depending on level of asthma control,
the patient is assigned to one of five
treatment steps
 Treatment is adjusted in a continuous
cycle driven by changes in asthma
control status. The cycle involves:
- Assessing Asthma Control
- Treating to Achieve Control
- Monitoring to Maintain Control

Allergen-specific Immunotherapy

Greatest benefit of specific immunotherapy
using allergen extracts has been obtained in
the treatment of allergic rhinitis

The role of specific immunotherapy in asthma is
limited

Specific immunotherapy should be considered
only after strict environmental avoidance and
pharmacologic intervention, including inhaled
glucocorticosteroids, have failed to control
asthma

Perform only by trained physician

Treating to Achieve Asthma Control
Step 1 – As-needed reliever medication
 Patients with occasional daytime symptoms of
short duration
 A rapid-acting inhaled β2-agonist is the
recommended reliever treatment (Evidence A)
 When symptoms are more frequent, and/or
worsen periodically, patients require regular
controller treatment (step 2 or higher)
Treating to Achieve Asthma Control
Step 2 – Reliever medication plus a single
controller
 A low-dose inhaled glucocorticosteroid is
recommended as the initial controller
treatment for patients of all ages (Evidence A)
 Alternative controller medications include
leukotriene modifiers (Evidence A)
appropriate for patients unable/unwilling to
use inhaled glucocorticosteroids
Treating to Achieve Asthma Control
Step 3 – Reliever medication plus one or two
controllers
 For adults and adolescents, combine a low-dose
inhaled glucocorticosteroid with an inhaled longacting β2-agonist either in a combination inhaler
device or as separate components (Evidence A)
 Inhaled long-acting β2-agonist must not be used
as monotherapy
 For children, increase to a medium-dose inhaled
glucocorticosteroid (Evidence A)
Treating to Achieve Asthma Control
Additional Step 3 Options for Adolescents and Adults
 Increase to medium-dose inhaled
glucocorticosteroid (Evidence A)
 Low-dose inhaled glucocorticosteroid
combined with leukotriene modifiers
(Evidence A)
 Low-dose sustained-release theophylline
(Evidence B)
Treating to Achieve Asthma Control
Step 4 – Reliever medication plus two or more controllers
 Medium- or high-dose inhaled glucocorticosteroid
combined with a long-acting inhaled β2-agonist
(Evidence A)
 Medium- or high-dose inhaled glucocorticosteroid
combined with leukotriene modifiers (Evidence A)
 Low-dose sustained-release theophylline added
to medium- or high-dose inhaled
glucocorticosteroid combined with a long-acting
inhaled β2-agonist (Evidence B)
Treating to Achieve Asthma Control
Step 5 – Reliever medication plus additional controller options
 Addition of oral glucocorticosteroids to other
controller medications may be effective
(Evidence D) but is associated with severe
side effects (Evidence A)
 Addition of anti-IgE treatment to other
controller medications improves control of
allergic asthma when control has not been
achieved on other medications (Evidence A)
Treating to Maintain Asthma Control
 When control as been achieved,
ongoing monitoring is essential to:
- maintain control
- establish lowest step/dose treatment
 Asthma control should be monitored
by the health care professional and
by the patient
Treating to Maintain Asthma Control
Stepping down treatment when asthma is
controlled
 When controlled on medium- to high-dose
inhaled glucocorticosteroids: 50% dose
reduction at 3 month intervals (Evidence
B)
 When controlled on low-dose inhaled
glucocorticosteroids: switch to once-daily
dosing (Evidence A)
Treating to Maintain Asthma Control
Stepping down treatment when asthma is
controlled
 When controlled on combination inhaled
glucocorticosteroids and long-acting
inhaled β2-agonist, reduce dose of inhaled
glucocorticosteroid by 50% while
continuing the long-acting β2-agonist
(Evidence B)
 If control is maintained, reduce to lowdose inhaled glucocorticosteroids and
stop long-acting β2-agonist (Evidence D)
Treating to Maintain Asthma Control
Stepping up treatment in response to loss of
control
 Rapid-onset, short-acting or longacting inhaled β2-agonist
bronchodilators provide temporary
relief.
 Need for repeated dosing over more
than one/two days signals need for
possible increase in controller therapy

Treating to Maintain Asthma Control
Stepping up treatment in response to loss of
control
 Use of a combination rapid and long-acting
inhaled β2-agonist (e.g., formoterol) and an
inhaled glucocorticosteroid (e.g., budesonide)
in a single inhaler both as a controller and
reliever is effecting in maintaining a high level
of asthma control and reduces exacerbations
(Evidence A)
 Doubling the dose of inhaled glucocorticosteroids is not effective, and is not
recommended (Evidence A)

Asthma Management and Prevention Program
Component 4: Manage Asthma
Exacerbations
 Exacerbations of asthma are episodes of
progressive increase in shortness of breath,
cough, wheezing, or chest tightness
 Exacerbations are characterized by decreases
in expiratory airflow that can be quantified and
monitored by measurement of lung function
(FEV1 or PEF)
 Severe exacerbations are potentially lifethreatening and treatment requires close
supervision
Asthma Management and Prevention Program
Component 4: Manage Asthma
Exacerbations
Treatment of exacerbations depends on:
 The patient
 Experience of the health care professional
 Availability of medications
 Emergency facilities
Asthma Management and Prevention Program
Component 4: Manage Asthma
Exacerbations
Primary therapies for exacerbations:
• Repetitive administration of rapid-acting inhaled
β2-agonist
• Early introduction of systemic
glucocorticosteroids
• Oxygen supplementation
Closely monitor response to treatment with serial
measures of lung function

Asthma Management and Prevention Program
Special Considerations
Special considerations are required to
manage asthma in relation to:
 Pregnancy
 Surgery
 Rhinitis, sinusitis, and nasal polyps
 Occupational asthma
 Respiratory infections
 Gastroesophageal reflux
 Aspirin-induced asthma
 Anaphylaxis and Asthma
Asthma Management and
Prevention Program: Summary

Asthma can be effectively controlled in most
patients by intervening to suppress and
reverse inflammation as well as treating
bronchoconstriction and related symptoms

Although there is no cure for asthma,
appropriate management that includes a
partnership between the physician and the
patient/family most often results in the
achievement of control
Asthma Management and
Prevention Program: Summary
 A stepwise approach to pharmacologic
therapy is recommended. The aim is to
accomplish the goals of therapy with the
least possible medication
 The availability of varying forms of
treatment, cultural preferences, and
differing health care systems need to be
considered
