Overview
Bronchiectasis is normally diagnosed after months or years of symptoms. Patients have respiratory complications, infection, and hemoptysis. Death can be caused by cardiac and respiratory failure. Bronchiectasis shows a higher mortality with males, advanced age, poor functional status, severe disease based on radiographic findings, and evidence of hypoxemia and hypercapnia.
Natural History
- There is often a delay between the onset of symptoms and diagnosis
- The classic symptoms are cough, daily mucopurulent sputum production, and dyspnea
- These symptoms are usually present for months to years
- The symptoms are manifestations of the lung being repeatedly damaged due to any number of causes
- Over the years the patient can develop recurrent infections, massive hemoptysis, and pulmonary hypertension
- In about 8-10 years, there is a high mortality rate due to cor pulmonale or respiratory failure
Complications
- Recurrent infection
- Increased sputum production
- Dyspnea
- Massive hemoptysis
- Pulmonary hypertension
Prognosis
- Bronchiectasis has been shown to contribute to early mortality[1]
- Early mortality is associated with
- Infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, severe exacerbations, and systemic inflammation are associated with disease advancement
- Up to 10% of adults die within 5-8 years of diagnosis (majority being respiratory related)[6]
