What is asthma
Asthma is a heterogeneous disease, usually characterized by chronic airway inflammation. It is defined
by the history of respiratory symptoms, such as wheeze, shortness of breath, chest tightness and cough,
that vary over time and in intensity, together with variable expiratory airflow limitation. Airflow
limitation may later become persistent.

How is asthma diagnosed


The diagnosis of asthma is based on the history of characteristic symptom patterns and evidence of
variable expiratory airflow limitation. This should be documented from bronchodilator reversibility
testing or other tests.

What is difficult to treat asthma


asthma that is uncontrolled despite prescribing of medium- or high-dose ICS with a second controller
(usually a LABA) or with maintenance OCS, or that requires high-dose treatment to maintain good
symptom control and reduce the risk of exacerbation. It is associated with poor control due to an
incorrect diagnosis or associated comorbidities, poor medication adherence, psychological or
environmental factors
What is severa asthma
Asthma which requires treatment with high dose inhaled cortico- steroids (ICS) plus a second controller
(and/or systemic cortico- steroid) to prevent it from becoming “uncontrolled” or remains “uncontrolled“
despite this therapy.

ALERGI IMUNOLOGI DKI JAKARTA

Allergic rhinitis
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is considered a major risk factor for asthma onset and uncontrolled or moderate-to-
severe AR can significantly affect asthma control, being associated with more frequent wheeze attacks.
Interactions between the upper and lower respiratory tracts are well known as they share anatomical,
functional, pathogenic and immunological patterns, so that allergic airway disease represents a
continuum of a single inflammatory process
Chronic rhinosinusitis
It has been demonstrated to be associated with impaired asthma control and increased exacerbation
frequency, in a common ground due to a systemic cyclic inflammatory response, which is not only by
contiguity between upper and lower airways, but it is the result of a complex interplay among several
immunological mechanisms both inside and outside the respiratory system

GINA, 2023
UKK CABANG
IPACI
Meeting
ALERGI IMUNOLOGI DKI JAKARTA

Obesity

Obesity is known to be an aggravating factor of many pulmonary conditions, through effects on lung
mechanical function and altered immunological and inflammatory state. This is due to high excessive
ventilator response for metabolic demands and chronic mild inflammation caused by augmented
proinflammatory cytokines such as leptin and reduced anti-inflammatory ones (adipokine) from the
adipose tissue
Gastro esophageal reflux disease
GERD is thought to enhance bronchoconstriction through vagal nerve stimulation and micro aspiration
of small amount of gastric and duodenal contents that irritate and damage the airways leading to
release of inflammatory cells and mediators.
