Asthma is estimated to affect up to 4% of pregnancies. Management of asthma during pregnancy follows the same approach as in the general population. Aggressive treatment should be entertained because asthma under poor control during pregnancy can lead to poor outcomes for the mother and child. The foundations of management are environmental avoidance procedures, proper pharmacologic agents, and specific allergen immunotherapy. For pregnant women with persistent asthma, the use of inhaled cromolyn or inhaled budesonide should be considered as first-line agents. Short-acting beta-agonists can be used as needed in all asthma categories. Other agents such as salmeterol, leukotriene modifiers, newer inhaled corticosteroids, and omalizumab may be considered in women who showed a good response to these agents before pregnancy.  相似文献

Asthma, one of the most common serious medical problems to complicate pregnancy, affects 3-8% of pregnancies in the United States. The goals of therapy in the pregnant asthmatic patient do not differ from those in non-pregnant patients. Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are preferred in the management of all levels of persistent asthma in pregnant patients, because these agents have been shown to reduce asthma exacerbations during pregnancy. Asthma in pregnancy is often undertreated due to physician and patient concerns over the effects of asthma medications on the fetus. However, undertreatment leads to loss of asthma control and increases in maternal morbidity, perinatal mortality, preeclampsia, preterm birth, and low birth weight infants. Recent prospective clinical cohort studies with active asthma management by NAEPP guidelines show no evidence of increased maternal or fetal morbidity or mortality. Therefore, it is critical for the mother to understand that failure to control asthma during pregnancy may lead to poor outcomes. A case study follows to highlight clinical pearls and pitfalls in the management of asthma in the pregnant patient.  相似文献

Asthma is a common chronic condition that might seriously complicate pregnancy and fetal development. This article provides a comprehensive review of the existing literature regarding the effect on fetal growth of maternal asthma and common asthma medications used during pregnancy, including short-and long-acting β 2-agonists, inhaled and oral corticosteroids, chromones, leukotriene receptor agonists, and theophylline. Evaluated outcomes of fetal growth include low birth weight, mean birth weight, small for gestational age, birth length and head circumference, and measures of asymmetrical growth retardation. Methodological and practical considerations related to safety of asthma medications in pregnancy and management of gestational asthma are discussed.  相似文献

Data support an increase in adverse outcomes in the pregnant woman with asthma, particularly those who are poorly controlled. Additionally, pregnancy is recognized to influence the course of asthma. Hormonal and physiologic changes are felt to direct the eventual course and outcome, but their roles are incompletely understood. Because of the potential for life-threatening consequences to mother and fetus, aggressive asthma management, as in the nongravid female, is recommended. Therapy may include controller agents such as cromolyn, beclomethasone, and the newer inhaled steroids. The newer antileukotriene agents may have a role in some patients. Reliever therapy with short-acting B2 agonists and, if needed, oral corticosteroids are indicated for acute exacerbations. Because of the potential for maternal and fetal harm, close monitoring of mother and child is essential.  相似文献

Although about 1% of pregnant women have asthma, it is often underrecognized and suboptimally treated. The course of asthma during pregnancy varies; it improves, remains stable, or worsens in similar proportions of women. The risk of an asthma exacerbation is high immediately postpartum, but the severity of asthma usually returns to the preconception level after delivery and often follows a similar course during subsequent pregnancies. Changes in beta(2)-adrenoceptor responsiveness and changes in airway inflammation induced by high levels of circulating progesterone have been proposed as possible explanations for the effects of pregnancy on asthma. Good control of asthma is essential for maternal and fetal well-being. Acute asthmatic attacks can result in dangerously low fetal oxygenation. Chronically poor control is associated with pregnancy-induced hypertension, preeclampsia, and uterine hemorrhage, as well as greater rates of cesarian section, preterm delivery, intrauterine growth retardation, low birth weight, and congenital malformation. Women with well-controlled asthma during pregnancy, however, have outcomes as good as those in their nonasthmatic counterparts. Inhaled therapies remain the cornerstone of treatment; most appear to be safe in pregnancy.  相似文献

Asthma in adolescent pregnancies is not rare and may make patient management difficult, especially since mortality from asthma is of particular concern in the adolescent age group. We present a series of 21 pregnant adolescents with severe asthma. During 28 pregnancies, there were 56 exacerbations of asthma, including 22 hospitalizations and 20 emergency room visits. For 18 (64%) of the 28 pregnancies, outpatient systemic corticosteroids were administered, and inhaled corticosteroids were prescribed for 8 (29%). Factors associated with exacerbations included respiratory tract infections (59%) and noncompliance with medical regimens (27%). There were no maternal or fetal deaths or evidence for intrauterine growth retardation. Two infants were premature, with one experiencing acute respiratory distress syndrome. Aggressive treatment of asthma and associated respiratory tract infections, as well as careful ambulatory care, to encourage patient compliance are advisable to achieve a favorable maternal-fetal outcome.  相似文献

Epidemiological studies showed that bronchial asthma is one of the most common diseases which can complicate pregnancy (1-7%). In about 0.05-2% of the cases, asthma occurs as a life-threatening event. In the common medical practice a waiting strategy or, even, the complete refusal for drug therapies are frequently observed. This is justified by the fear of the possible adverse effects of drugs on developing fetus. On the contrary, several studies have demonstrated that severe and uncontrolled asthma may produce serious maternal and fetal complications, such as gestational hypertension and eclampsia, fetal hypoxemia and an increased risk of perinatal death. Therefore, all pregnant women suffering from bronchial asthma should be considered as potentially at high risk of complications and adequately treated. Since asthma is a chronic disease with acute exacerbations, a continuous treatment is mandatory to control symptoms, to prevent acute episodes and to reduce the degree of airway inflammation. The global strategy for asthma management in pregnancy includes five main topics: (1) objective evaluation of maternal/ fetal clinical conditions; (2) avoidance/control of triggering factors; (3) pharmacological treatment; (4) educational support; (5) psychological support. As far as drug therapy is concerned, the International Guidelines and Recommendations suggest that the general strategy does not differ significantly from management outside pregnancy. We herein review and discuss the available data and the criteria for the management of asthma in pregnant patients.  相似文献

Asthma during pregnancy: mechanisms and treatment implications.   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Asthma is becoming increasingly prevalent worldwide. Numerous historical and prospective cohort studies have investigated the effects of maternal asthma on pregnancy outcome; however, the data has been conflicting and many studies have not used standard classifications for asthma severity. Overall, the literature suggests that asthmatic females are more at risk of low birth weight neonates, pre-term delivery and complications such as pre-eclampsia, especially in the absence of actively managed asthma treated with inhaled corticosteroids. Pregnancy with a female foetus may particularly increase the risk of these outcomes. In addition, pregnancy has an effect on the course of asthma. The risk of an exacerbation requiring medical intervention may be as high as 50% in females with severe asthma and this may further increase the risk of poor outcomes, particularly low birth weight and pre-term delivery. The mechanisms responsible for changes in asthma with pregnancy, or alterations in pregnancy outcomes due to asthma have not been thoroughly explored. Maternal inflammatory pathways may contribute to reduced foetal growth through alterations in placental function. Asthma treatment, by reducing maternal inflammation and preventing exacerbations, is safe for use in pregnant females and contributes to improved outcomes for both mother and foetus.  相似文献

Maternal asthma is associated with reduced female fetal growth   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
Asthma during pregnancy is associated with a low birth weight, although the mechanisms contributing to this outcome remain unknown. The relationship between maternal asthma and its treatment, placental function, fetal sex, and low birth weight was examined to establish the effect of asthma on fetal growth. Glucocorticoid intake by women with asthma was assessed throughout pregnancy. The placenta was collected after delivery, and 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (11beta-HSD2) activity was measured. Fetal cortisol and estriol were measured in the umbilical vein plasma at delivery. Those with asthma were compared with a nonasthmatic control group. In women with asthma who did not use inhaled steroids and were pregnant with a female fetus, we observed significantly reduced birth weights, whereas male birth weights were unaffected. The presence of a female fetus was associated with significantly increased maternal circulating monocytes, significantly reduced placental 11beta-HSD2 activity and fetal estriol, and a trend toward elevated fetal plasma cortisol. This study provides evidence that in pregnancies complicated by asthma there is a fetal sex-specific effect on the maternal immune system with adverse effects on placental function and female fetal growth.  相似文献

BackgroundThe incidence of asthma is high, especially in young people, a population group that in-cludes women of reproductive age. We reviewed recent publications on asthma control during pregnancy to avoid undesired effects on both the mother and fetus. The prevalence of rhinoconjunctivitis is also high, although this disease is often under-treated by physicians. The use of β2-agonists, corticoids (systemic/inhaled/nebulized), epinephrine and specific allergen immunotherapy is discussed.MethodsWe reviewed recent publications on asthma during pregnancy as well as other articles of interest. Articles providing data on drug therapy, overall strategies and patient education were selected. Sufficient drugs are available for the management of this disease and under-treatment cannot be justifiedConclusionsPregnancy is not a disease, but constitutesa period when special care must be taken with underlying diseases. The aim of asthma treatment during pregnancy is to prevent fetal complications due to the effects of medication and asthma crises by keeping the mother symptom free and preventing possible exacerbations. Almost all authors agree that asthma crises in pregnant women should be treated no differently from those in non-pregnant women. Treatment of rhinoconjunctivitis should not be stopped during pregnancy since a wide variety of FDA category B drugs is available. Specific allergen immunotherapy should not be suspended during pregnancy as it is not contraindicated. However, this therapy should not be initiated during pregnancy.  相似文献

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Asthma is the most common potentially serious medical problem to complicate pregnancy. Asthmatic women have been shown to be at an increased risk of complications during pregnancy. Managing asthma during pregnancy is unique because the effects of both the illness and the treatment on the developing fetus and the patient must be considered. RECENT FINDINGS: This review summarizes the recent studies addressing the interrelationships between asthma and pregnancy and general aspects of pharmacologic therapy of gestational asthma. SUMMARY: The prevalence of asthma in pregnant women appears to be increasing. Recent evidence supports that pregnant asthmatic women with moderate to severe asthma may have an increased risk of adverse perinatal outcomes. The goal of asthma management during pregnancy is to optimize maternal and fetal health.  相似文献

Most gravidas with asthma can be managed with an inhaled beta-adrenergic agonist (terbutaline or epinephrine) and beclomethasone dipropionate. The administration of prednisone to control exacerbation of asthma is appropriate and should not be withheld if current medications are inadequate. The outcome of pregnancy in gravidas with asthma can approach that of the general population if asthma is controlled effectively. There may be an increased incidence of preterm deliveries or preeclampsia in women with asthma during pregnancy.  相似文献

The number of women of childbearing age with cardiovascular disease (CVD) is growing because of increased survival of children with congenital heart disease. More women are also becoming pregnant at an older age, which is associated with increased rates of comorbidities including hypertension, diabetes, and acquired CVD. Over the past decade the field of cardio-obstetrics has significantly advanced with the development of multidisciplinary cardio-obstetric programs (COPs) to address the increasing burden of CVD in pregnancy. With the introduction of formal COPs, pregnancy outcomes in women with heart disease have improved. COPs provide preconception counselling, antenatal and postpartum cardiac surveillance, and labor and delivery planning. Prepregnancy counselling in a COP should be offered to women with suspected CVD who are of childbearing age. In women who present while pregnant, counselling should be performed in a COP as early as possible in pregnancy. The purpose of counselling is to reduce the risk of pregnancy to the mother and fetus whenever possible. This is done through accurate maternal and fetal risk stratification, optimizing cardiac lesions, reviewing safety of medications in pregnancy, and making a detailed plan for the pregnancy, labor, and delivery. This Clinical Practice Update highlights the COP approach to prepregnancy counselling, risk stratification, and management of commonly encountered cardiac conditions through pregnancy. We highlight “red flags” that should trigger a more timely assessment in a COP. We also describe the approach to some of the cardiac emergencies that the care provider might encounter in a pregnant woman.  相似文献

Periodic exacerbations of disease severity, which may lead to hospitalization, are a characteristic feature of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), becoming more prevalent as disease severity increases. Oral corticosteroids increase the rate of resolution of these episodes in both diseases. Inhaled corticosteroids are much less effective at conventional doses and are not recommended as a primary treatment for exacerbations of either disease. Maintenance therapy with inhaled corticosteroids significantly reduces the chance that a further exacerbation will occur in asthma. In general, increasing doses of inhaled corticosteroids are more effective than placebo therapy in preventing exacerbations, at least until patients become persistently symptomatic and regular users of inhaled corticosteroid therapy. Thereafter, the gains from doubling the dose of inhaled corticosteroid maintenance therapy are modest and generally inferior to those that result from adding other antiinflammatory or bronchodilator agents to the treatment regime. The reduction in the incidence of exacerbations with inhaled corticosteroids, compared with placebo, ranges from 15 to 20% in COPD versus almost 50% in severe asthma. However, given the impact of exacerbations on overall quality of life in COPD, even this modest reduction is likely to be clinically important.  相似文献

Asthma exacerbations are responsible for many emergency medical interventions and account for a significant proportion of the health costs of the disease. Increased airway inflammation is a key feature of exacerbations in asthma and therefore inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are considered as first-line therapy for long-term asthma control. ICS have been demonstrated to reduce the risk of asthma exacerbations, as well as improving lung function. Oral leukotriene receptor antagonists also reduce the incidence of asthma exacerbations but are less effective than ICS. In patients with inadequately controlled persistent asthma despite low-dose ICS, the addition of a long-acting inhaled beta-agonist (LABA) should be considered. LABA should not be given alone and should always be associated with ICS in asthma. The anti-immunoglobulin E antibody, omalizumab, reduces severe exacerbations and emergency visits in patients with severe allergic asthma. In clinical trials measurement of the inflammatory response in induced sputum could provide information concerning appropriate drug therapy. Asthma-associated comorbidities should be investigated and treated, particularly in severe asthma. Despite a high prevalence of both gastro-oesophageal reflux and allergic rhinitis among patients with asthma, treatment with proton-pump inhibitors or nasal corticosteroids does not reduce the rate of asthma exacerbations.  相似文献
