1 Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary disease : 2006/05/25

2 Definition of COPD COPD is a disease state characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible. The airflow limitation is usually both progressive and associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lungs to noxious particles or gases GOLD

3 Asthma & COPD

4 Risk Factor for COPD Host factor Exposures Genes (eg( : alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency) Airway hyperresponsiveness Lung growth Tobacco smoke Occupational Dusts And Chemicals Indoor and Outdoor Air pollution Infections Socioeconomic states

5 Diagnosis of COPD SYMPTOMS cough sputum dyspnea EXPOSURE TO RISK FACTORS tobacco occupation indoor/outdoor pollution SPIROMETRY

6 Spirometry Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) and Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1) Calculate the FEV1/FVC ratio. Appropriate normal values for the person's sex, age,and height. Normal adults: FEV1/FVC is between 70%-80% ; less than 70% indicates airflow limitation and the possibility of COPD

7 Stages of COPD

8 Goal of therapy Prevent disease progression Relieve symptoms Improve exercise tolerance Improve health status Prevent and treat complications Prevent and treat exacerbations Reduce mortality Prevent or minimize side effects from treatment

9 Management of COPD Assess and Monitor Disease Reduce Risk Factors Manage Stable COPD Manage Exacerbations

10 Management of COPD Mild to Moderate COPD (Stages I and II) Involves the avoidance of risk factors to prevent disease progression and pharmacotherapy as needed to control symptoms. Severe (Stage III) and very Severe ( (Stage IV) ) : Often require the integration of several different disciplines, a variety of treatment approaches, and a commitment of the clinician to the continued support of the patient as the illness progresses.

11 Assess and Monitor Disease-1 Initial Diagnosis : Chronic cough Chronic sputum Dyspnea history of exposure to risk factors Medical history : Asthma Allergy ;sinusitis or nasal polypus Respiratory infections in childhood Other respiratory diseases Physical Examination : Considerations in Performing Spirometry

12 Differential diagnosis of COPD Diagnosis COPD Asthma Suggestive Features Onset in mid-life Symptoms slowly progressive Long smoking history Dyspnea during exercise Largely irreversible airflow limitation Onset early in life (often childhood) Symptoms vary from day to day Symptoms at night/early morning Allergy,rhinitis,and/or eczema also present Family history of asthma largely reversible airflow limitation

13 Differential diagnosis of COPD Tuberculosis Bronchiectasis Congestive Heart Failure Onset all ages Chest X-rayX shows ling infiltrate or nodular lesions Microbiological confirmation.high local prevalence of tuberculosis Large volumes of purulent sputum Commonly associated with bacterial infection Coarse crackles/clubbing on auscultation Chest X-ray/CTX shows bronchial dilation,bronchial wall thickening Fine basilar crackies on auscultation Chest X-rayX shows dilated heart,pulmonary edema pulmonary function tests indicate volume restriction, not airflow limitation

14 Reduce risk factor-2 Smoking cessation is the single most effective and cost effective way in most people to reduce the risk of developing COPD and stop its progression.

15 Reduce risk factor-2

16 Manage Stable COPD-3 Patient education Pharmacologic therapy Bronchodilator Corticosteroids : FEV1<50% predicated and repeated exacerbations Vaccines : Influenza vaccines reduce serious illness and death in COPD patients by 50% Antibiotics : not recommended Mucolytic agents,water : not recommended Antitussives : contraindicated to regularly in stable COPD Respiratory stimulants agents : not recommended for regular use

17

18 Bronchodilator

19 Bronchodilator Bronchodilator medications are central to symptom management in COPD Inhaled therapy is preferred The choice between ß2-agonist anticholinergic anticholinergic theophyllin combination therapy depends on availability and individual response in terms of symptom relief and side effects Bronchodilators are prescribed on an as-needed or on a regular basis to prevent or reduce symptoms Long-acting inhaled bronchodilators are more effective and convenient, but more expensive

20 Bronchodilator Combining bronchodilators may improve efficacy and decrease the risk of side effects compared to increasing the dose of a single bronchodilator The bronchodilating effect of short-acting inhaled anticholinergics lasts longer than that of short- acting β2-agonists, with some bronchodilator effect generally apparent up to 8 hours after administration Efficacy of theophylline in COPD were done with slow-release preparations. Theophylline is effective in COPD but, due to its potential toxicity, inhaled bronchodilators are preferred when available

21 2-agonists The principal action of agonists is to relax airway smooth muscle by stimulating 2-- adrenergic receptors, which increases cyclic AMP and produces functional antagonism to bronchoconstriction. Oral therapy is slower in onset and has more side effects than inhaled treatment.

22 2-agonists Adverse effects : resting sinus tachycardia (rare event with inhaled therapy) exaggerated somatic tremor hypokalemia ( especially when combined with thiazide diuretics and oxygen consumption )

41 Combination bronchodilator therapy Combining bronchodilators with different mechanisms and durations of action may increase the degree of bronchodilation for equivalent or lesser side effects. A combination of a short-acting β2-agonist and an anticholinergic produces greater and more sustained improvements in FEV1 than either drug alone and does not produce evidence of tachyphylaxis over 90 days of treatment.

45 Methylxanthines Controversy remains about the exact effects of xanthine derivatives. They may act as nonselective phosphodiesterase inhibitors but have also been reported to have a range of non-bronchodilator actions the significance of which is disputed Xanthine preparations are lacking in COPD. Changes in inspiratory muscle function have been reported in patients treated with theophylline but whether this reflects changes in dynamic lung volumes or a primary effect on the muscle is not clear Efficacy of theophylline in COPD were done with slow- release preparations Theophylline is effective in COPD but due to its potential toxicity inhaled bronchodilators are preferred when available
