As we continue to learn more about the underlying inflammatory pathways in asthma, we now have more novel tools and treatments to help us achieve control, remission, and better outcomes for our patients. But in order to achieve those goals, we must first detect severe asthma early enough to take full advantage of the latest advancements. Learn more about the importance of early detection and intervention in severe asthma care through the lens of a real-world patient case with Drs. Tom Corbridge, De De Gardner, Diego Maselli, and Praveen Akuthota.

This is a non-promotional, non-CME disease state disease education podcast series brought to you by American College of CHEST Physicians in collaboration with and paid for by GSK.

When it comes to managing acute asthma symptoms and reducing risk for patients, our focus is now on relieving bronchoconstriction and inflammation. Given this fundamental change, it’s important to ensure that our patients understand this shift. Find out how taking a shared decision-making approach can help patients embrace this change in addition to improving their adherence and outcomes with Drs. Demondes Haynes, Njira Lugogo, and Neil Skolnik.

Expert opinions from NAEPP and GINA recommend treating both symptoms and inflammation in asthma patients concomitantly. Joining Dr. Demondes Haynes to talk about these updates and therapies for asthma like short-acting beta agonists and inhaled corticosteroids are Drs. Njira Lugogo and Neil Skolnik.

According to data from the CDC, over half of patients in the United States are not considered well controlled, and there hasn’t been much improvement in exacerbations as measured by ER visits or by deaths per year in the last 30 years or so. But fortunately, the use of single maintenance and reliever therapy (SMART) has been shown to help address inflammation and decrease exacerbations. Drs. Demondes Haynes, Njira Lugogo, and Neil Skolnik discuss this approach and other combination treatment for asthma.

It’s estimated that respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is responsible for up to 30 percent of viral respiratory infections in the stem cell transplant population. So how can we help RSV patients achieve their best outcomes? Learn more with Dr. Ryan Maves as he speaks with Dr. Kelly Pennington, Assistant Professor of Medicine at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.

Bronchiectasis is a complex syndrome that can lead to an interconnected cascade of airway dysfunction and inflammation. How has our understanding of this syndrome evolved with Cole’s vicious cycle hypothesis? Dr. Ashwin Basavaraj and Dr. Christopher Lippincott take a closer look at this hypothesis and the clinical mechanisms behind bronchiectasis.
