Chronic disease due to bronchoconstriction and an
Asthma
excessive inflammatory response in the bronchioles

coughing
wheezing
What are 5 s/s of asthma shortness of breath
rapid breathing
chest tightness

-airway inflammation, bronchial hyper-reactivity and
smooth muscle spasm
Pathophysiology of -excess mucus production and accumulation
asthma (5) -hypertrophy of bronchial smooth muscle
-airflow obstruction
-decreased alveolar ventilation

smaller passageways that originate from the bronchi
Bronchioles
that become the alveoli

innermost layer
3 layers of the bronchioles middle layer - lamina propria
outermost layer

lamina propria the middle layer of the bronchioles

structure of the lamina embedded with connective tissue cells and immune
propria cells

purpose of the lamina white blood cells are present to help protect the
propria airways

How does the lamina the WBCs protective feature goes into overdrive
propria effect the lungs in causing an inflammatory response that damages host
regards to asthma tissue

, What does the innermost columnar epithelial ells and mucus producing goblet
layer of the bronchioles cells
contain

What does the outermost smooth muscle cells
layer of the bronchioles
contain

what does the outermost control the airways ability to constrict and dilate
layer of the bronchioles
do

When air is unable to move out of the alveolar like it
alveolar hyperinflation should due to bronchial walls collapsing around
possible mucus plug thus trapping air inside

the ongoing inflammatory process of asthma
how does hyperinflation
produces mucus and pus plug that the bronchial walls
occur?
collapse around

Effect of hyperinflation of -expanded thorax and hypercapnia (retention of CO2)
the alveolar - respiratory acidosis

What are two tiotropium and ipratropium
anticholinergic drugs used
for asthma

These drugs block the effects of the parasympathetic
What do anticholinergics
nervous system
do in the lungs?
- increasing bronchodilation

the parasympathetic system is stimulated by the vagal
nerve to release acetylcholine which binds to the
cholinergic receptors of the respiratory tract to cause
MOA of anticholinergic bronchial constriction = decreased airflow
drugs for asthma
- blocking the cholinergic receptors prevents
acetylcholine binding preventing the bronchial
constriction

bronchitis inflammation of the bronchial tubes
