symptomatic patients, the consensus is to
start at step 3, with low doses of a fixeddose ICS+LABA combination inhaler.

Single inhaler maintenance and relief
therapy strategy

If a combination inhaler containing formoterol
and budesonide is selected, it may be used for
both rescue and maintenance.
P

This approach has been shown to result in :
 Reductions in exacerbations
 Improvements in asthma control in adults and
adolescents at relatively low doses of treatment
(Evidence A)
PCCP Council on Asthma
Treating to Achieve Asthma Control
Additional Step 3 Options for Adolescents
and Adults :
 Increase to medium-dose inhaled glucocorticosteroid (Evidence A)P
 Low-dose inhaled glucocorticosteroid
combined with leukotriene modifiers
(Evidence A)
 Low-dose sustained-release theophylline (Evidence B)
PCCP Council on Asthma
Treating to Achieve Asthma Control

Asthma control should be monitored by the
health care professional & by the patient.

Improvement begins within days of initiating
controller treatment but the full benefit may only
be evident after 3 to 4 months
P

When control as been achieved, ongoing
monitoring is essential to:
- maintain control
- establish lowest step/dose treatment

PCCP Council on Asthma
Stepping Up Treatment in Response
to Loss of Control

Treatment has to be adjusted periodically in
response to worsening control which may be
recognized by the minor recurrence or worsening
of symptoms
P

Treatment options :
 Rapid-onset, short-acting or long-acting
bronchodilators : repeated dosing provides
temporary relief
 A four-fold or greater increase in inhaled glucocorticosteroids

Asthma Exacerbations

Episodes of progressive worsening of SOB, cough,
wheezing or chest tightness or some combination of
these symptoms

Significant decreases in PEFP or FEV1 which are more
reliable indicators of severity of airflow obstruction than
degree of symptoms

Range from mild to life-threatening deterioration usually
progresses over hours or days, or precipitously over
some minutes

Features of Patients at high-risk for
Asthma-Related Death







Current use of or recent withdrawal from systemic
corticosteroids
ER visit for asthma in the past year
History of near-fatal asthma requiring intubation or
mechanical intubation
P
Not currently using inhaled steroids
Overdependence on rapid acting inhaled 2 agonists, esp. those
with more than one canister monthly
Psychiatric disease or psychosocial problems, incl. the use of
sedatives
Noncompliance with asthma medication plan
PCCP Council on Asthma
Management of Asthma Exacerbations

Primary therapies for exacerbations:
 Repetitive administration of rapid-acting
inhaled β2-agonist
 Early introduction of Psystemic
glucocorticosteroids
 Oxygen supplementation

Closely monitor response to treatment
with serial measures of lung function
PCCP Council on Asthma
Criteria for hospitalization
Inadequate response to therapy within 1-2 hours
 Persistent PEF <50% after 1 hour of treatment
 Presence of risk factors
 Prolonged symptoms prior to ER consult
P
 Inadequate access to medical
care and
medications
 Difficult home condition
 Difficulty in obtaining transport to hospital in
event of further deterioration

PCCP Council on Asthma
Asthma Exacerbations &
Hospitalization
• Despite appropriate therapy, ~ 10 to 25 % of ER
patients with acute asthma will require
hospitalization.
P
• Response to initial treatment
in the ER is a better
predictor of the need for hospitalization than is
severity on presentation
• FEV1 or PEF appears to be more useful in adults
for categorizing severity of exacerbation &
response to treatment.
