Dangerous lies about asthma

Hello! I work as a doctor for 21 years. My name is George O. Sapego. This article will talk about how you slip dangerous lies about asthma.

There was such a popular article about asthma. Also without quotes not dispense:

... Every patient with asthma must be an inhaler, spacer, nebulizer or inhaler. drugs found in these devices ...

This is a good example of Semi-Medical bredyatiny, from which not only the teeth ache, but it will have to explain the whole page text. Ready? Muster, please be patient! I very much want you to read up.

I start. Inhaler - it is some kind of inhaler. That is, to carry inhaleram and nebulizer and inhaler itself, and even any other inhaler. oil oil out.

Further. spacer. This attachment to the metered dose inhaler. The spacer is a volume almost liter. How to take it with you? The spacer is really a cure, but only a few seconds, when there is injected from the inhaler. That is to take with a spacer - it means to take an empty plastic jar. What for?

Okay. A nebulizer also take with them? I confirm - even in my house there is a pocket

mesh nebulizer on batteries. So what? It is necessary to bring him to always carry in your pocket and additionally to keep a bottle of medicine? No, dear readers! With a take-dose inhaler that does not require effort and time to activate, and can occasionally be life saving.

Move on. Again quote:

... When an asthma attack to take a comfortable position sitting or standing, leaning on hands. We need to make uniform breaths ...

I will say briefly - such tactics will lead to the grave. The main task during an asthma attack - is not trying to deal with an attack by meditation and austerity inhalers. Not. The main task - to prevent the worsening of the attack, from which one can die. To do this, use the inhaler. Immediately. Then again, if you do not help. And so do many times. No one is meditating in a stable posture. Because you can die, without waiting for the ambulance.

I still have my suspicions about this "comfortable posture." The guidelines for the treatment of bronchial asthma is usually inserted into the patient's picture with this position when he rests his hands. This is called "fixes the shoulder girdle." And that's bad. This is a sign of severe attack of breathlessness. I think that our author has mixed asthma attack symptoms to the method of treatment of an asthma attack. Looks like it?)

What else happened? And there were glucocorticoids. Sorry, the quote again. I can not reproduce the author's style:

... glucocorticoids quickly act on the bronchial mucosa. If you take a deep breath a glucocorticoid, the lumen of the bronchi becomes more and catch my breath ...

You, dear readers, it should be clear... Yes, it is almost meaningless set of words.

Glucocorticoids not work faster than ever. In the evening (to put it mildly), they will act. Here, in my opinion, really gugloperevod machine. Because breathing is really restored when the bronchi clearance becomes greater. And this gap may be more under the influence of glucocorticoids. A glucocorticoids are slow and must be guaranteed to get to the right place. That is, they really need to take a deep breath. It turns out not once. Asthmatics will do a few hours, days or weeks, while glucocorticoids will not have its effect. Something like that... It was clear? My brain boils only attempts to explain delirium of this publication. In my opinion, enough already about it.

Thank you for reading!
