INTRODUCTION ASTHMA Asthma, originally a Greek word, means to breathe with mouth open. It attacks all age groups but often starts in childhood. It is a common chronic inflammatory disease of the airways characterized by variable and recurring symptoms, reversible airflow obstruction, and bronchospasm. It varies in frequency from person to person. Chronic inflammation leads to an increase in airway or bronchial hyper responsiveness with recurrent episodes of wheezing, coughing and shortness of breath (night) widespread, Variable and often reversible airflow limitation bronchoconstriction, mucus plugs, swelling of airway walls. Asthma is a chronic ailment in which inflammation of the airways, or bronchi, affects the way air enters and leaves the lungs, thereby disrupting breathing. When allergens or irritants come into with the inflamed airways, the already sensitive airways tighten and narrow, making it difficult for the person to breathe. Progressively severe symptoms can lead to an asthma attack. In asthma attacks, the overproduction of mucus lining the airways further narrow the airways, limiting oxygen intake and making it more difficult to breathe. Asthma affects 5 million children in the United States and 15 million people total. Currently, there is no cure, but there are medications and lifestyle changes that can
help alleviate the symptoms so that one can lead a productive life. Medications that provide long-term relief include corticosteroids, beta agonists, leukotriene modifiers, Cromolyn, and Nedocromil. Depending on the symptoms, doctors may prescribe various dosages to help control asthma symptoms. Asthma is a commonly occurring condition which can be serious and life threatening if not dealt properly. Life need not stop if doctor determines that a person has asthma. With the correct medications, lifestyle accommodations, and proper treatment, a person can live a healthy and active life.
SYMPTOMS The symptoms associated with asthma differ from person to person. Common symptoms of asthma include
Wheezing Shortness of breath Chest tightness Coughing use of accessory muscles
Symptoms are often worse at night or in the early morning, or in response to exercise or cold air. Some people with asthma only rarely experience symptoms, usually in response to triggers, whereas other may have marked persistent airflow obstruction.
CLASSIFICATION
Asthma is clinically classified according to the frequency of symptoms, forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), and peak expiratory flow rate. Asthma may also be classified as atopic (extrinsic) or non-atopic (intrinsic), based on whether symptoms are precipitated by allergens (atopic) or not (non-atopic).
CAUSES
Asthma is caused by environmental and genetic factors. The early exposure to allergens or irritants is thought to be an important cause of asthma. Heredity also plays a role in predisposing certain groups of the population to the chronic condition. The allergens that can trigger an asthma attack include animal allergy, pollen, mold and dust. Irritants like cigarette smoke, air spray products and perfumes, and changes in the weather can also trigger attacks. Sulphur dioxide, respiratory infections, exercise and hyperventilation are some other triggers of asthma. The best way to minimize the attacks is to avoid the triggers. Changing bed and pillow covers frequently, avoiding mold, staying away from pets, and avoiding the outdoors during windy days are some of the lifestyle changes a person can make to eliminate the triggers.
Types of asthma patients
Intermittent Mild persistent Moderate persistant Severe persistant
HOW COMMON IS ASTHMA
The prevalence of asthma has increased significantly since the 1970’S. 300 million people were affected worldwide In 2009 asthma caused 250,000 deaths globally. It is estimated that asthma has a 7-10% prevalence worldwide.
HOW IS ASTHMA DIAGNOSED
There is currently not a precise physiologic, immunologic, histologic test for diagnosing asthma. The diagnosis is usually made based on the pattern of symptoms (airways obstruction and hyper responsiveness) and/or response to therapy (partial or complete reversibility) over time. The main ways used to diagnose asthma are
1.History - Family history - Persistent dyspnea - Unexplained cough - Wheezing
2. Investigation - Chest x-ray - Sputum and blood eosinophilia - Skin tests 3. Pulmonary function test A) Spirometry
B) Peak expiratory flow rate
A) Spirometry measures the amount and rate of air a person breathes in order to diagnose illness or determine progress in treatment. -It is used to measure FEV1 and FVC values. - FVC (Forced Vital Capacity) is the total air expired after maximal inspiration (4600 ml). - FEV 1 (Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second) is the volume of air expelled in 1 second after maximal inspiration. - FEV1/ FVC ratio is reduced in obstructive airway disease. - Severity of asthma is graded by FEV1 and PEFR values.
B) Peak Expiratory Flow rate(PEFR) -It is easiest and most commonly preferred. -Maximum speed at which air can move through the airways during a forced expiration after maximum inhalation. -Measured speed at which air can move through the airways during a forced expiration after maximum inhalation. -Measured with help of a peak flow meter.
-Normal peak flow rates, for males is 600 to 800L/min -Normal peak flow rates for females is 400 to 600L/min -Peak flow should be measured twice a day. -Peak flow varies according to age, sex, and height. -Diurnal peak flow variation of a patient with asthma is more than 20%
Asthma Management
-A specific, customized plan for proactively monitoring and managing symptoms should be created. -Prevent exposure to allergens, testing to assess the severity of symptoms, and the usage of medications. -The treatment plan should be written down and adjusted according to changes in symptoms. -The most effective treatment for asthma is identifying triggers, such as cigarette smoke, pets, or aspirin, and eliminating exposure to them. If trigger avoidance is insufficient, medical treatment is recommended. -Avoid adverse effects from asthma medications. -Prevent development of irreversible airflow limitation. -Prevent asthma mortality.
CONTROL OF ASTHMA
Experts are struggling to understand why the rate world-wide is, on an average , rising by 50% every decade and baffled by isolated incidents involving hundreds of people who suffer from allergies such as high fever but who had never had asthma, suddenly being struck down by asthma attacks so severe they needed emergency hospital treatment. Although asthma cannot be cured, it can be controlled. Various ways to control asthma are-
Lifestyle modification
Avoidance of triggers is a key component of improving control and preventing attacks. The most common triggers include allergens, smoke (tobacco and other), air pollution, nonselective beta-blockers, and sulfite-containing foods. Cigarette smoking and second hand smoke (ive smoke) in regard to people with asthma causes problems in effectiveness of management medications such as steroid/corticosteroid therapies.
Medications Medications used to treat asthma are divided into two general classes: quick-relief medications used to treat acute symptoms;
and long-term control medications used to prevent further exacerbation.
Glucocorticoids are the most effective treatment available for long term control. Inhaled forms are usually used except in the case of severe persistent disease, in which oral steroids may be needed. Inhaled formulations may be used once or twice daily, depending on the severity of symptoms.
The most effective management of asthma is preventing airway inflammation.
ASTHMA TREATMENT
Steroid and salbutamol inhalers that ensure quick action, least side effects are commonly used by patients. Some new drugs and something called immune therapy are also being prescribed by physicians. Anti IgE therapy is a big breakthrough, while an anti CD4 therapy has been also proved effective. But the latest is gene therapy. Inhalers are, however, expensive and involve some complicated methods. Unless a patient knows how to use them, things will be worse.
-Inhaled steroids are potent anti-inflammatory drugs are the Most preferred preventers. -Proper use of inhaled drugs (both “relievers’’ and “preventers’’) can lead to effective control of asthma. -A patient needs regular “preventer therapy”, if he needs to take his reliever on a daily basis. -The emphasis in asthma treatment is on long term preventive therapy to reduce the inflammation.

THE MAJOR FINDINGS/ RESULTS OF THE SURVEY
From an analysis of the data pertaining to the questionnaire, the report arrived at the following conclusion-
1) According to the analysis of the questionnaire and the survey sheet CIPLA can be considered as the most preferred brand prescribed by the doctors. 2) DOCTORS’ CHOICE FOR ANTI ASTHMA RANGE LUPIN- 29% CIPLA- 60.8% MACLEOD- 8% GERMAN REMEDIES- 2.2%
RECOMMENDATION
On the basis of the analysis, following suggestions are recommended. It is observed from the market research that the brand awareness of Lupin is better in urban areas than in rural areas. Therefore attempts should be made to make the rural population aware of asthma and antiasthma products. It is observed that there are many well-known doctors in different locations of Trans Gomti.
