2 Definition of Asthma (GINA 2015) Asthma is a common and potentially serious chronic disease that imposes a substantial burden on patients, their families and the community. It causes respiratory symptoms, limitation of activity, and flare-ups (attacks) that sometimes require urgent health care and may be fatal Asthma causes symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and cough that vary over time in their occurrence, frequency and intensity Definition of COPD (GOLD 2015) COPD, a common preventable and treatable disease, is characterized by persistent airflow limitation that is usually progressive and associated with an enhanced chronic inflammatory response in the airways and the lung to noxious particles or gases Exacerbations and comorbidities contribute to the overall severity in individual patients
3 ACOS? Asthma-COPD overlap syndrome (ACOS) [a description] Asthma-COPD overlap syndrome (ACOS) is characterized by persistent airflow limitation with several features usually associated with asthma and several features usually associated with COPD. ACOS is therefore identified by the features that it shares with both asthma and COPD. GINA Updated 2014; GOLD Updated 2014

6 Differential Diagnosis ASTHMA Onset early in life (often childhood) Symptoms vary from day to day Symptoms worse at night/early morning COPD Onset in mid-life Symptoms slowly progressive Long smoking history Allergy, rhinitis, and/or eczema also present Family history of asthma Adaptation from GOLD 2015
7 Spirometry Spirometric variable Asthma COPD ACOS Normal FEV 1 /FVC pre - or post - BD Compatible with asthma Not compatible with diagnosis (GOLD) Not compatible unless other evidence of chronic airflow limitation Post - BD FEV 1 /FVC <0.7 Indicates airflow limitation; may improve Required for diagnosis by GOLD criteria Usual in ACOS FEV 1 =80% predicted Compatible with asthma (good control, or interval between symptoms) C ompatible with GOLD category A or B if post - BD FEV 1 /FVC <0.7 Compatible with mild ACOS FEV 1 <80% predicted Compatible with asthma. A risk factor for exacerbations Indicates severity of airflow limitation and risk of exacerbations and mortality Indicates severity of airflow limitation and risk of exacerbations and mortality Post - BD increase in FEV 1 >12% and 200mL from baseline (reversible airflow limitation) Usual at some time in course of asthma; not always present Common in COPD and more likely when FEV 1 is low, but consider ACOS Common in ACOS, and more likely when FEV 1 is low Post - BD increase in FEV 1 >12% and 400mL from baseline High probability of asthma Unusual in COPD. Consider ACOS Compatible with diagnosis of ACOS GINA Updated 2015; GOLD Updated 2015 GINA Updated 2014

9 Acute Exacerbation Flare Up Asthma 2015 COPD 2015 A flare-up or exacerbation is an acute or subacute worsening of symptoms and lung function compared with the patient s usual status Terminology - Flare-up is the preferred term for discussion with patients - Exacerbation is a difficult term for patients - Attack has highly variable meanings for patients and clinicians - Episode does not convey clinical urgency Consider management of worsening asthma as a continuum - Self-management with a written asthma action plan - Management in primary care - Management in the emergency department and hospital - Follow-up after any exacerbation An exacerbation of COPD is: an acute event characterized by a worsening of the patient s respiratory symptoms that is beyond normal day-to-day variations and leads to a change in medication.

22 Global Strategy for Diagnosis, Management and Prevention of COPD Manage Exacerbations: Assessments Arterial blood gas measurements (in hospital) : PaO 2 < 8.0 kpa with or without PaCO 2 > 6.7 kpa when breathing room air indicates respiratory failure. Chest radiographs: useful to exclude alternative diagnoses. ECG: may aid in the diagnosis of coexisting cardiac problems. Whole blood count: identify polycythemia, anemia or bleeding. Purulent sputum during an exacerbation: indication to begin empirical antibiotic treatment. Ambroxol Biochemical tests: detect electrolyte disturbances, diabetes, and poor nutrition. Spirometric tests: not recommended during an exacerbation. GINA Updated Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease
23 Global Strategy for Diagnosis, Management and Prevention of COPD Manage Exacerbations: Treatment Options Oxygen: titrate to improve the patient s hypoxemia with a target saturation of 88-92% Bronchodilators: Short-acting inhaled beta 2 -agonists with or without shortacting anticholinergics are preferred Atrovent Combivent UDV Berotec Systemic Corticosteroids: Shorten recovery time, improve lung function (FEV 1 ) and arterial hypoxemia (PaO 2 ), and reduce the risk of early relapse, treatment failure, and length of hospital stay. A dose of 40 mg prednisone per day for 5 days is recommended GOLD Updated 2015
24 Global Strategy for Diagnosis, Management and Prevention of COPD Manage Exacerbations: Treatment Options Antibiotics should be given to patients with: Three cardinal symptoms: increased dyspnea, increased sputum volume, and increased sputum purulence. Who require mechanical ventilation. GINA Updated Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease
25 Global Strategy for Diagnosis, Management and Prevention of COPD Manage Exacerbations: Treatment Options Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) for patients hospitalized for acute exacerbations of COPD: Improves respiratory acidosis, decreases respiratory rate, severity of dyspnea, complications and length of hospital stay. Decreases mortality and needs for intubation. GOLD Updated Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease
