  11. Environmental factors Th-2/Th-1 cytokines – eg IL-13, TNF Environmental factors and Inflammatory products Dendritic cell mucus Initiation B lymphocyte T lymphocyte Airway EffectsBronchospamAcute InflammationPersistent InflammationRemodeling IgE IL-3, IL-5 GM-CSF IL-3, IL-4,IL-13, IL-9 Airway microenvironment Inflammation Amplification TNF (myo) fibroblasts Mast cell Propagation Eosinophil Smooth muscle Blood vessels Neutrophil Persistent inflammation and development of remodeling Acute Inflammation Proinflammatory mediators DRAFT www.nhlbi.nih.gov/guidelines/asthma/epr3/

  12. Complexity of Asthma • Several orders of magnitude more complex • Microbiome, Proteome, Transcriptome, Genome • Tissues, Organs, Whole Body, Brain • Third and Fourth Dimensions

  13. Persistent Asthma: Daily Medication IntermittentAsthma Consult with asthma specialist if Step 4 care or higher is required. Consider consultation at Step 3. Step 6 Preferred:High-dose ICS + LABA + Oral Corticosteroid AND Consider Omalizumab for Patients WhoHave Allergies Step Up If Needed (first, check adherence, environmental control, and comorbid conditions) Step 5 Preferred:High-dose ICS + LABA (B) AND Consider Omalizumabfor PatientsWho HaveAllergies (B) Step 4 Preferred:Medium-dose ICS + LABA (B) Alternative:Medium-dose ICS + eitherLTRA (B), Theophylline (B),or Zileuton (D) Step 3 Preferred: Low-dose ICS + LABA (A)OR Medium-dose ICS (A) Alternative:Low-dose ICS + either LTRA (A), Theophylline (B),or Zileuton (D) Step 2 Preferred:Low-dose ICS (A) Alternative: Cromolyn (A), LTRA (A), Nedocromil (A),orTheophylline (B) Step 1 Preferred:SABA PRN Assess Control Step Down If Possible (and asthma is well controlled at least 3 months) Each Step: Patient education, environmental control, and management of comorbidities Steps 2-4: Consider subcutaneous allergen immunotherapy for patients who have allergic asthma • Quick-Relief Medication for All Patients • SABA as needed for symptoms. Intensity of treatment depends on severity of symptoms: up to 3 treatments at 20-minute intervals as needed. Short course of systemic oral corticosteroids may be needed • Use of SABA >2 days a week for symptom relief (not prevention of EIB) generally indicates inadequate control and the need to step up treatment Stepwise Approach for Managing Asthma in Patients Aged ≥12 Years ICS = inhaled corticosteroids; LABA = long-acting β2-agonist; LTRA = leukotriene receptor antagonist.
