| '''Bronchospasm''' is a difficulty in breathing caused by a sudden constriction of the muscles in the walls of the bronchioles.
| | ==[[Bronchospasm overview|Overview]]== |
|
| |
|
| ==Pathophysiology== | | ==[[Bronchospasm historical perspective|Historical Perspective]]== |
| Bronchospasm is caused by the release ([[degranulation]]) of substances from [[mast cells]] or [[basophil]]s under the influence of [[anaphylatoxin]]s. The overactivity of the bronchioles' muscle is a result of exposure to a stimulus which under normal circumstances would cause little or no response. The resulting constriction and inflammation causes a narrowing of the airways and an increase in [[mucus]] production; this reduces the amount of [[oxygen]] that is available to the individual causing breathlessness, coughing and [[hypoxia (medical)|hypoxia]].

| === Pharmacotherapy === | | ==Case Studies== |
| | | [[Bronchospasm case study one|Case#1]] |
| ==== Beta 2 agonists ====
| |
| | |
| Beta 2 [[adrenergic agonist]]s are recommended for bronchospasm.
| |
| *Short acting (SABA)
| |
| **[[Salbutamol]]
| |
| **[[Levosalbutamol]]
| |
| *Long acting (LABA)
| |
| **[[Formoterol]]

| |

| |
| **[[Epinephrine]]
| |
| | |
| ==== Muscarinic Acetylcholine receptor antagonist ====
| |
|
| |
| Since the neurotransmitter, [[acetylcholine]], is known to decrease sympathetic response by slowing the heart rate and constricting the [[smooth muscle tissue]]; ongoing research and successful clinical trials have shown that agents such as [[diphenhydramine]], [[atropine]] and [[Ipratropium bromide]] is known to be effective for treating asthma and COPD-related symptoms.
