1. Definition of asthma
Asthma is a chronic disease caused by inflammation in the respiratory tract. This
inflammation makes the respiratory tract swollen and very sensitive. As a result, the
respiratory tract narrows, causing a lack of air flowing into the lungs.
2. Causes of asthma
 Allergens from dust, animal dander, drugs, food and drinks
 Irritants like cigarette smoke, air pollution, chemicals or dust in the workplace,
compounds in home decoration products, and sprays (like hairspray)
 Upper respiratory viral infections, such as a cold
 Physical activity, including exercise that is too heavy
3. Pathophysiology of Asthma
When the process of breathing experiences interference during asthma often begins with
trigger factors, such as an allergen, when this happens the body will respond with a
strong inflammatory cell reaction to fight. Then, the tissue lining the airway becomes
swollen and the air cannot move quickly, mucus production increases to protect damaged
tissue, but it will save the airway, and reduce the ability of the lungs to absorb oxygen
which causes difficulty breathing, the result is symptoms typical of asthma, namely
wheezing, shortness of breath, coughing up phlegm, and chest tightness.
4. Sign and symptomps of asthma
a) changes in breath patterns,
b) sneezing,
c) cough,
d) insomnia,
e) out of breath,
f) short breath
5. Prevention of asthma
 Pay attention to the time or activity before getting attacked
 Wash pillowcases, sheets, curtains more often
 Stay away from cigarette smoke
  Use warm clothing when the weather is cold
 Avoid activities that can make the body tired
6. Asthma management
a) Non-pharmacologically (asthma management not with drugs)
 Education for sufferers regarding the disease so that they can respond to the
disease well
 Avoiding the cause / trigger of an attack (allergen) and control of his environment
 Relaxation exercises, control of emotions and doing gymnastics or sports that are
beneficial to strengthen breathing muscles, such as swimming
 Physiotherapy, so the mucus is easy to come out
b) Pharmacologically (treatment with drugs):
 Using inhaler

Consume the medicine:

 Relief of attacks / loosening of the airways, for example Salbutamol,

Aminophylline
 Repeated prevention of attacks, such as Prednisone, Dexamethasone
 Mucus thinners, for example Bromhexin, Ambroxol
7. Attack asthma management
 Calm sufferers
 Help sufferers to sit and rest
 Help sufferers get or find medicine
 Let the patient use his own inhaler medication
 As much as possible avoid patients from allergic sources
 If it is the first attack or looks prolonged, immediately bring medical services
 If not aware, immediately take it to medical services
 Do not force the sufferer to sleep on his back because the sufferer is more
comfortable sitting
 Do not ask many sufferers, because usually it is difficult to speak
