    Case Presentation of Patient Diagnosed with Bronchial Asthma

    I.Introduction:

    The student nurse of Our Lady of Fatima University picked a case about Bronchial Asthma. As a health care provider, the student nu

    responsibility for planning with the patient and the family the continuation of care with eventual outcome of an optimal state of wellness.

    Creating a plan of care begins with the collection of data or assessment. It consists of subjective and objective data information.

    Asthma is a condition in which the airways narrow usually reversibly in response to stimuli. It is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airwa

    many cells and cellular elements play a role, in a particular, mast cells, eosinophil, T lymphocytes, macrophages, neutrophils, and epithelial cells. In

    individuals this inflammation causes recurrent episodes of wheezing, breathlessness, coughing. There are forms of asthma first is cardiac asthma,

    asthma, it is the reduced of pumping efficiency of the left side of the heart leads to a buildup of fluid in the lungs. This fluids causes airways to narr

    cause wheezing. Cardiac asthma is often indistinguishable from bronchial asthma. The main symptoms are shortness of breath, increase in rapid

    breathing, increase in blood pressure and heart rate and a feeling of apprehension. Second forms of asthma is Bronchial Asthma, for most peop

    asthma is the pattern periodic attacks of wheezing alternating with periods of quite normal breathing. Strong risk of getting Bronchial asthma incl

    person genetically susceptible to asthma and being exposed early in life to indoor allergens, such as dust mites and cockroaches, and having fam

    asthma. Symptoms of bronchial asthma include a feeling of tightness of the chest, difficulty of breathing or shortness of breath, wheezing and coughin

    at night.

    DEVELOPMENTAL DATA

    Erik Erikson believe that people continue to develop throughout life so he described 8 stages of development.

    Eriksons theory proposes that life is a sequence of developmental stages of levels of achievement each stage signals a task that must be ac

    The resolution of the task can be complete, partial or unsuccessful. Erikson believed that the more success an individual has at each developmenta

    healthier the person is. Failure to complete any developmental stage influences the persons ability to progress to the next level. These developmentabe viewed as a series of crises. Successful resolution of these crises supports healthy ego development. Failures to resolve the crises damage the ego

    I. PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT

    Baby X weighs 12 kg with a length of 62 cm. The rate of increase in height and weight is largely influenced by babys size at birth and by nutrition. Hi

    normal function by moving eyes and follows large objects and blinks in response to bright lights. He has an intact hearing because he reacts with a stanoise called Moro reflex. He also understands many words like no, ma. His smell and taste are functional because he was able to recognize the s

    mothers milk and he respond to the smell by turning his head toward to his mother. His sense of touch is well developed because of his response

    reflexes are involuntary responses of nervous system to external and internal stimuli like rooting and sucking reflex. His motor development is also norm

    he can reach and grasp object and transfer from hand to hand.

    II. PSYCHOSOCIAL DEVELOPMENT

    Baby X is still depends to his parents because he is 1 mos. Old that needs attention and care to fulfill his nutrition.

    III. COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT

    Baby X has a concept of both space and time like his experiment to reach a goal such as a toy in a chair.

    IV. MORAL DEVELOPMENT

    Baby X is an infant. He doesnt know how to feed and care himself thats why he needs his parents support and care.

    VI. SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT As an infant, he has not fully developed his sense of spirituality

    ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY OF THE LUNGS

  • 8/7/2019 CALUMPIT FINAL

    Anatomy and Physiology

    About the Lungs and Respiratory System

    Breathing is so vital to life that it happens automatically. Each day, you breathe about 20,000 times, and by the time you're 70 years old, you'll have taken

    million breaths.

    All of this breathing couldn't happen without the respiratory system, which includes the nose, throat, voice box, windpipe, and lungs.

    At the top of the respiratory system, the nostrils (also called nares) act as the air intake, bringing air into the nose, where it's warmed and humidified. Tiny ha

    protect the nasal passageways and other parts of the respiratory tract, filtering out dust and other particles that enter the nose through the breathed air.

    Air can also be taken in through the mouth. These two openings of the airway (the nasal cavity and the mouth) meet at the pharynx, or throat, at the back of

    mouth. The pharynx is part of the digestive system as well as the respiratory system because it carries both food and air. At the bottom of the pharynx,

    divides in two, one for food (the esophagus, which leads to the stomach) and the other for air. The epiglottis, a small flap of tissue, covers the air-only passa

    swallow, keeping food and liquid from going into the lungs.

    The larynx, or voice box, is the uppermost part of the air-only pipe. This short tube contains a pair of vocal cords, which vibrate to make sounds.

    The trachea, or windpipe, extends downward from the base of the larynx. It lies partly in the neck and partly in the chest cavity. The walls of the trachea are s

    by stiff rings of cartilage to keep it open. The trachea is also lined with cilia, which sweep fluids and foreign particles out of the airway so that they stay out of

    Trachea and Bronchi

    extent 'overbuilt' and have a tremendous reserve volume as compared to the oxygen exchange requirements when at rest. Such excess capacity is one of

    that individuals can smoke for years without having a noticeable decrease in lung function while still or moving slowly; in situations like these only a small p

    lungs are actually perfused with blood for gas exchange. As oxygen requirements increase due to exercise, a greater volume of the lungs is perfused, allow

    to match its CO2/O2 exchange requirements. Additionally, due to the excess capacity, it is possible for humans to live with only one lung, with the other com

    its loss.

    The environment of the lung is very moist, which makes it hospitable for bacteria. Many respiratory illnesses are the result of bacterial or viralinfection

    Inflammation of the lungs is known as pneumonia; inflammation of the pleura surrounding the lungs is known as pleurisy.

    Vital capacity is the maximum volume of air that a person can exhale after maximum inhalation; it can be measured with a spirometer. In combinatio

    physiological measurements, the vital capacity can help make a diagnosis of underlying lung disease.

    The lung parenchyma is strictly used to refer solely to alveolar tissue with respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts and terminal bronchioles.[4]

    However, it o

    any form of lung tissue, also including bronchioles, bronchi, blood vessels and lung interstitium.

    What the Lungs and Respiratory System Do

    The air we breathe is made up of several gases. Oxygen is the most important for keeping us alive because body cells need it for energy and growth. Withou

    body's cells would die.

    Carbon dioxide is the waste gas produced when carbon is combined with oxygen as part of the energy-making processes of the body. The lungs and respir

    allow oxygen in the air to be taken into the body, while also enabling the body to get rid of carbon dioxide in the air breathed out.

    Step 4 - Maintenance treatment with oral corticosteroids. This is given if adequate control is not achieved in step 3. Preparation with short prednisolone is preferred, esp. in alternate day regimen to minimise suppression of adrenal pituitary hypothalamic axis.

    Step 5 - High dose of inhaled bronchodilators with nebuliser with special solution of salbutamol (5 mg) terbutaline (10 mg) 3-4 times/day. The usewithout proper evaluation is not advisable. Before considering giving nebuliser bronchodilator, increased bronchodilator, increasedbronchodilaunacceptable side effect should be demonstrated.

    Step 6 - High dose of inhaled bronchodilators with nebuliser, steroids BDP or BUD should be increased to a maximum daily dose of 2 mg. A large vodevice is recommended to reduce oropharyngeal candidiasis and systemic absorption. Internationally this is advocated at step 3 but because of therapy it is not practical in India.

    Step 5 and 6 should be considered depending upon patients economic background.

    Step 7 - Treatment with short course of oral steroids : 1. Symptoms and PEFR gets progressively worse each day, 2. Sleep is disturbed by asthmasymptoms persist until midday, 4. Emergency nebuliser or injectable bronchodilators are needed. Give prednisolone 2 to 40 mg daily until two drecovery, when the drug may be stopped or the dose tapered.

    Step down - The patients requirement for treatment should be reviewed from time to time. If asthma is well controlled, (asymptomatic, optimum PEFR

    reduction in the medication must be planned. In chronic asthma a 6 month period of stability should be shown before stopping anti inflammatory drugs.

    OTHER TREATMENT

    Anti histaminics including ketotifen have proved disappointing in clinical practice. There is anecdotal evidence that some patients have benefitted froacupuncture, ayurvedic and homoeopathic treatment but so far there are no controlled clinical trials to justify the same. Hyponsensitization / desensitiznot accepted because of uncertainty about the result, cost and availability of better treatment.

    5. Give sufficient doses to maintain best lung function

    This is possible with regular monitoring of PEFR at home. If normal PEFR cant be achieved, the best PEFR readings can be maintained.

    6. Investigate trigger factor

  • 8/7/2019 CALUMPIT FINAL

    This requires taking a careful history and performing skin test (pollens, fungi, animal dander, mite, dust, etc.) and in some cases provocationaoccupational ingested agents. Where it is practical, these trigger factors should be removed.

    7. Treat aggravating conditions

    Asthma is worsened by smoking, rhinitis, gastric reflux, and excessive snoring. Smoking should cease. The other conditions should be investigated and

    8. Write a crisis plan

    A patient has to be briefed about the symptoms of exacerbation and medicines to be taken in emergency. They should be taught diaphragmatic

    minimise sense of breathlessness.

    9. See the patient regularly
