Definitions • Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways associated with airway hyperresponsiveness and airflow obstruction that is often reversible either spontaneously or with treatment WAO. White Book on Allergy, 2011
Epidemiology • World Health Organisationestimate 300 million individuals have asthma worldwide • Current rising trends this will reach 400 million by 2025 • Approximately 250,000 people die prematurely each year from asthma • Prevalence in the 13-14 year olds ranging from 2.1% to 32.2% • Prevalence in the 6-7 year olds was similar to those in the older children with prevalence of wheezing varying from 4.1%-32.1% • Indonesia: 2.6% - 17.4% WAO.

Hypothetical yearly prevalence for recurrent wheezing phenotypes in childhood Leung DM. Pediatric Allergy 2nd Ed, 2010
Modified Asthma Predictive Index for children (Tucson Children's Respiratory Study, Tucson, Arizona). Through a statistically optimized model for 2- to 3-year-old children with frequent wheezing in the past year, one major criterion or two minor criteria provided 77% positive predictive value and 97% specificity for persistent asthma in later childhood Leung DM.

Entry point of asthma diagnosis: Recurrent Wheezing and/or Chronic Recurrent Cough PedomanNasionalAsmaAnak, 2004
Diagnosis Cough and/or Wheeze Clinical history Physical examination Mantoux test • Indeterminate features or suggestive • of alternative diagnosis • Neonatal onset • Failure to thrive • Chronic infection • Vomiting/choking • Focal lung or CVS signs • Suggestive of asthma: • Episodic • Nocturnal • Seasonal • Exertional • Atopic • If possible frequent peak flow • measurements : • Reversibility (20%) • Variability (20%) • Consider • Chest and sinus x rays • Lung function • Bronchial challenge and/or • Bronchodilator response
….. Consider : • Sweat test • Immune function • Ciliary & Reflux studies Bronchodilator response No response Response WD/ Asthma - ve + ve Assess severity and etiology Chest x ray if more than mild episodic disease Alternative diagnosis and treatment Trial of antiasthma treatment Consider asthma as an associated problem Not asthma Review diagnosis and compliance if poor response to treatment PedomanNasionalAsmaAnak, 2004

Acute asthma algorithm Clinic/ER Asses attack severity • 1st management • nebulitation-agonis 3x, 20 min interval • 3rd nebulitation + anticholinergic • Mild attack • (nebulization 1x, • complete response) • persist 1-2 hr: • discharge • symptom reappear: • Moderate attack • Moderate attack • (nebulization 2-3x, • partial response) • give O2 • asses: Moderate – • ODC • IV line • Severe attack • (nebulization 3x, • no response) • O2 from the start • IV line • asses: Severe - hospitalized • CXR
Discharge • give -agonist • (inhaled/oral) • routine drugs • viral infection: • oral steroid • Outpatient clinic in • 24-48 hours • One Day Care (ODC) • Oxygen therapy • Oral steroid • Nebulized / 2 hour • Observe 8-12 hours, • if stable discharge • Poor response in 12h, • admission • Admission room • Oxygen therapy • Treat dehydration and • acidosis • Steroid IV / 6-8 hours • Nebulized / 1-2 hours • Initial aminophylline IV, • then maintenance • Nebulized 4-6x • good response per 4-6 h • If stable in 24 hours • discharge • Poor response ICU • Notes: • In severe attack, directly use -agonist + anticholinergic • If nebulizers not available, use adrenalin SC 0.01 ml/kg/timeswith maximal dose 0.3 ml/times • Oxygen therapy 2-4 l/min should be early treatment in moderate • and severe attack PedomanNasionalAsmaAnak, 2004
Non responsive • Dehydration: • inadequate intake, the longer the more • evaluate: clinically, laboratory; overcome • Acidosis:correction • Atelectasis & mucus plug: CXR mandatory; physiotherapy
Non responsive • Excessive use of ß-agonist down regulation of ß-agonist receptors tachyphylaxis, subsensitivity Systemic steroid • reduce the edema • up regulates more ß-agonist receptors sensitive again to ß-agonist drugs
Choosing an Inhaler Device A pressurized metered-dose inhaler (MDI) with a valved spacer (with or without a face mask, depending on the child’s age) is the preferred delivery system GINA, 2009
