What is the harm of asthma to the body

summary

After the body is invaded by asthma, we should find the problem in time, because not paying much attention will cause a lot of trouble. Of course, we should also know the impact of asthma on the body, and we should treat it well after a comprehensive understanding. So, what is the harm of asthma to the body? Here is a detailed answer for you.

What is the harm of asthma to the body

(1) Respiratory arrest and respiratory failure. Respiratory arrest is the sudden occurrence of respiratory arrest. Before the occurrence of this serious complication, the patient's condition is not too serious, and there is no warning. Most of it occurs when the patient coughs or eats food, or after slight activity. Most of it occurs at home, so the family members should give timely treatment. It lasts for 2-3 minutes and has not recovered, The cause of respiratory arrest may be related to the nerve reflex.

(2) Pneumothorax and mediastinal emphysema. When the human body exhales, the pressure in the alveoli is slightly higher than the atmospheric pressure outside. When the asthma attacks, the pressure in the alveoli becomes very high due to the obstruction of small air ducts and coughing. At this time, some weak alveoli will burst under the impact of the pressure in the alveoli. The broken alveoli can be connected together to form the pulmonary bullae, alveoli or the gas in the pulmonary bullae, The pneumothorax is formed when the gas enters the pleural cavity outside the lung, which compresses the lung and causes alveolar compression.

(3) Cardiac arrest and shock. Severe asthma attacks * themselves cause arrhythmia and shock due to hypoxia and carbon dioxide retention, but antiasthmatic drugs, especially aminophylline and isoproterenol, can cause these side effects if excessive dosage or injection rate is too fast, even if the current selective beta 2 stimulants are administered intravenously. On the basis of the fact that asthma patients have been dehydrated and their blood volume is relatively insufficient, it is easy to cause hypovolemic shock and even death.

matters needing attention

Through the above, that is, the harm of suffering from asthma, we should do a correct analysis, and people should pay attention to the emergence of the disease. Once we find that the body is affected by asthma, we should choose better methods for prevention and treatment, so as to ensure our health. Finally, we wish the patients recover as soon as possible.
