    What are predictors of adult asthma? (3)

  • atopic dermatitis, asthma, allergic rhinitis

    Which conditions are a part of the allergic triad?

  • genetic predisposition + environmental interaction

    Etiology of Asthma =

  • >= 6 months

    Annual flu vaccine is recommended in all patients ______ of age.

  • infections, allergic rhinitis, GERD, obesity, OSA, mental illness

    Comorbid conditions of Asthma? (6)

  • f; no single diagnostic test

    Asthma diagnosis only requires one test. T/F?

  • obstruction; reversible

    Diagnosis of asthma requires expiratory airflow _____ that is at least partially _______.

  • c

    Measures nitric oxide in exhaled breath; used to indicate level of airway

    inflammation.

    a) FVC

    b) FEV1

    c) FeNO

    d) PEFR

  • d

    Used in initial diagnosis to test for variability in expiratory airway flow

    limitation.

    a) FVC

    b) FEV1

    c) FeNO

    d) PEFR

  • FeNO; PEFR

    _______ & _______ should be measured at baseline and after use of SABA to

    test for reversibility.

  • Spirometery, PFTs

    Asthma diagnosis is confirmed by what tests? (2)

  • >=5 yo

    At what age can patients be assessed with a FVC test?

  • a

    Total volume of air that can be exhaled after deep inhalation.

    a) FVC

    b) FEV1

    c) FeNO

    d) PEFR

    b) FEV1

    c) FeNO

    d) PEFR

  • > 80%

    What is a normal FVC reading?

  • percentage of total air capacity that can be exhaled in one second

    What does FEV1/FVC ratio tell us?

  • initial assessment, after therapy initiation/ PEF have normalized, every year at follow up

    How often do we conduct FEV1/FVC tests? (3)

  • increase in FEV1 of > 200 ml; >= 12% from baseline after inhalation of SABA
