7 Epidemiology of asthma Prevalence 5-12% US adult population or >200,000 adults Prevalence increased 74% over 20 yrs Financial impact 11 billion annual costs attributed to asthma 465,000 hospitalizations per year 1.8 million ER visits (20-30% admission rate) 10.4 million MD office visits Pts w/ exacerbations use x health care dollars Mortality 4487 deaths in 2000 (61% increase over past 20 yrs)
8 Health Disparity and Asthma African Americans Hospitalization rates 1.4-4x higher More ED visits for asthma Mortality rates x higher Less likely to use inhaled steroids in MC setting Women Lower quality of life with asthma Hospitalization rate 2.5x higher
9 Why the Disparities SES? General Access to health care? Race specific barriers? Educational Level?
10 Asthma Case #1 45 yo M with new onset SOB, chest tightness, intermittent wheezing. No CP, h/o CAD, reflux symptoms, no prior h/o dx asthma. Non smoker Mild productive cough with wheezing white sputum, no infection. Exam Normal except minimal end expiratory wheezing.
11 Audience Question #1 What would your next diagnostic step be? (choose one) History is sufficient diagnose asthma History and wheezing on exam is sufficient Need to perform Peak Expiratory Flow Rate Need to perform PFTs
12 Clinicians: Accuracy of Hx and PE in Diagnosing Asthma? Disagree about presence or absence of respiratory signs 55-89% of the time Correctly predict PFT findings 50% Correctly diagnose asthma based on Hx and PE 63-74% Ann All Asthma Immunology 1996;76:1.
13 Diagnostic Accuracy of Asthma History SYMPTOM SENSITIVITY Persistent wheeze Chronic cough Chronic Dyspnea 35% 24% 29% Dyspnea + h/o asthma Dyspnea + wheezing PPV 48% 42% NPV 76% 83%
14 Are PFTS Accurate/Useful? Spirometry Reproducible (variation <5%) 1 Accurate (sensitive to airflow obstruction) 2 Response to bronchodilators Consensus as to cutoff for + test => increase by 12%, or >200 ml Methacholine challenge Sensitivity >95%; Specificity?? Peak Expiratory Flow Rate (PEFR) 30% variability between individuals < 10% variability within patient (>5%) 3 Requires pt understanding and cooperation 1 NEJM 1994;331:25 2 Am J Respir Crit Care Med 1995;152: Chest 2003;124:501
15 NAEPP Expert Panel: Diagnostic Testing Recommendations Hx and PE Spirometry with response to bronchodilators Methacholine challenge test if above is neg and suspicion is high

18 Chronic Asthma: Treatment What are the 4 categories of chronic asthma? Mild intermittent Mild persistent Moderate persistent Severe
19 AR question #2 There is good evidence that early administration of inhaled corticosteroids: (check all that apply) Reduces asthma exacerbations Prevents airway remodeling Are cost effective Can be safely reduced in moderate asthma
20 Do Inhaled Corticosteroids reduce exacerbations? a Meta-analysis Asthma Exacerbations Inhaled steroids reduce exacerbations by 55% Sin, D. D. et al. JAMA 2004;292:
21 Do inhaled steroids reduce exacerbations? One study in mild persistent asthma Patients: START Trial pts with mild persistent asthma Design: 3 year, multinational, double blind, placebo RCT Intervention : QD budeniside vs. placebo Outcome >1 Asthma Exacerbation in 3 years EER Budeneside 117/ % CER Placebo 198/ % RRR 46% NNT 45 pts Need to treat 45 pts with mild persistent asthma for 3 years to save one asthma exacerbation Lancet 2003;361:1071
22 Does early administration of inhaled steroids delay airway remodeling? Data is not definitive Most benefit from inhaled steroids accrued in 1 st 3 months ( ml FEV1) Delayed use of inhaled steroids results in prolonged airway hyper-responsiveness even after 6 months of therapy This may result in more remodeling Chest 1996;110:35
23 Are inhaled corticosteroids cost effective? Patients: mild persistent asthma, n=7165 Design: 3 yr, blinded, multi-center international RCT Intervention: Daily inhaled steroid vs usual care Patients Mild Persistent Asthma Budeniside vs Usual care Direct cost effectiveness $9.40/SFD Indirect cost effectiveness $3.40/SFD Direct cost = Health care related costs. Indirect cost = Lost wages, societal cost SFD = Symptom Free Day Second study - $13,500 incremental cost /QALY attributable to inhaled steroids J Allergy Clin Immunol 2003;112:1229 J Allergy Clin Immunol 2003;108:39

29 Are Leukotriene Inhibitors better than Salmeterol as second line therapy? Patients: 1490 chronic (>1 yr) mild to moderate asthma Design: 1yr double blind multi-center RCT Intervention: Inhaled steroids + montelukast or salmeterol Outcomes Asthma Exacerbation EER Steroids + LI s 20% CER Steroids + LABA 19% RRR 5% NNT NS Quality of Life and FEV1 were the same as well.
