Abstract:

The global prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is high and rising. Patients and families living with advanced disease often experience biopsychosocial symptom burdens over a long trajectory, leaving them housebound when they require support the most. Current models of care, by placing a disproportionate focus on the provision of acute and facility-based services, do little to address the complex needs of those vulnerable patients and families who struggle to easily access primary care services. This chapter provides an overview of conventional COPD treatments and highlights some newer understandings and management approaches for patients living with high symptom burden despite optimized conventional treatments, including the use of opioids. It provides some concrete examples of models of care that employ interventions and holistic approaches to care that can improve patient and family outcomes. The move towards an integrated care approach to COPD will help patients and their families reach informed decisions about their care throughout the trajectory of COPD.

Abstract:

Acute breathlessness or dyspnoea is the new onset of an unpleasant awareness of breathing, at rest or at a level of exercise, which did not previously cause symptoms. It is often associated with other symptoms—including wheeze, cough, chest pain, and palpitation—which, together with the patient’s comorbidities, help shape the differential diagnosis. Five disorders—decompensated heart failure, exacerbations of asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pneumonia, and pulmonary embolism—account for 80% of diagnoses. In older patients, acute breathlessness often results from multiple interrelated pathologies (e.g. pneumonia on a background of COPD, triggering acute atrial fibrillation). This chapter describes the clinical approach to the patient presenting with acute breathlessness.

Abstract:

Exacerbations of asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) can be life-threatening emergencies, and require careful management to minimize the risks of morbidity and mortality. Prompt, full bronchodilator therapy, careful observation and appropriate mechanical ventilation technique is required. Dynamic hyperinflation of the lungs occurs in all patients, and must be careful assessed and regulated. Excessive dynamic hyperinflation can result in respiratory tamponade, hypotension, circulatory failure, pneumothoraces and, in severe cases, cardiac arrest. Intravenous or continuous nebulized salbutamol commonly causes lactic acidosis that should be detected and managed. Prolonged paralysis during difficult mechanical ventilation can result in severe necrotizing myopathy. Pneumothoraces in ventilated patients with asthma are usually under tension, redistribute ventilation to the contralateral lung, and risk a second tension pneumothorax. Patients surviving mechanical ventilation for asthma and COPD have an increased risk of recurrence and death. All these problems require awareness, avoidance or detection and management

Abstract:

Airflow disruption can be triggered through multiple mechanisms. The obstruction can stem from within the airway lumen, airway walls, or the tissues surrounding it. This section focuses on airflow disruption initiated by bronchospasm, obstructive lung disease, asthma and status asthmaticus. Bronchospasm presents with increased airway resistance secondary to airway hyperreactivity or anaphylaxis. Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are obstructive and inflammatory lung pathologies. Airflow disruption in asthma is reversible between exacerbations. The airway obstruction in COPD is not fully reversible. Status asthmaticus is the most severe presentation of asthma and can be life threatening. Poorly controlled obstructive lung disease can result in perioperative complications. Patients should therefore be medically optimized before undergoing operative procedures.

Abstract:

The Global Initiative for Chronic Lung Disease (GOLD) states that ‘chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a common preventable and treatable disease, is characterised by persistent airflow limitation that is usually progressive and is associated with an enhanced chronic inflammatory response in the airways and the lung to noxious particles and gases. Exacerbations and comorbidities contribute to the overall severity in individual patients.’

Abstract:

Many critically ill patients undergo a period of immobilization with detrimental effects on skeletal muscle, effects which seem most pronounced in the first days of critical illness. Diagnosis of intensive care unit muscle weakness (ICUAW) is often made after discontinuation of sedation when significant nerve and/or muscle damage may already have occurred. Recently, there has been interest in early mobilization during the acute phase of critical illness, with the goal of preventing ICUAW. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NEMS) is an alternative form of exercise that has been successfully used in patients with advanced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and chronic heart failure. NEMS is a rehabilitation tool that can be used in critically ill, sedated patients, does not require patient cooperation, and is therefore a promising intervention to prevent muscle dysfunction in the critically ill. When applied early during the course of critical illness, NEMS can preserve muscle morphology and function. Available evidence suggests that NEMS may have a preventive role in the development of ICUAW and could even contribute to a shorter duration of weaning from mechanical ventilation. Studies are needed to evaluate the long-term effect of NEMS and to explore NEMS settings and delivery characteristics most appropriate for different subgroups of critically ill patients.
