QUESTION 1
Due to presence of Asthma in individual, there can be risk of triggering, which may include
the swollen of airways from inside. This has the potential to narrow the space for the air to move
in along with out of lungs. In this there are some of the physiological changes which may include
the change in muscle wrap which can observed around the airways which get tighten and make
breathing even harder. During the asthma attack there are some of the changes in the respiratory
system which may include the contraction of muscle wall along with lining of the airways which
may get swollen and inflamed. These can lead to make some changes in the airway and narrows
the path that further aggravate by increase in the secretions from the mucus membrane and lead
to block it by getting smaller (Chen et. al., (2022)).
When asthma is not managed effectively then, there can be risk of getting airway
remodelling which refers to serious condition which can be there in individual when asthma get
untreated or poorly managed. In this, lungs become scarred where asthma medicine does not
work it get difficult to move air through the airways. Here, Allira is facing difficulty in breathing
which also include the shortness of breath. She is not getting better while taking and struggle for
getting breath. Allira may face also some respiratory changes which can lead to create high
impact on the delivery of better and effective response which includes lungs and airway. Allira
airways may get highly effected due to getting asthma and narrowing of airway due to swollen of
the airways which create minimise the air passage which restrict to pass air in large amount and
create difficulty in breathing to get sufficient oxygen. It can also be observed through measuring
the oxygen level which has shown decrease in the oxygen level.
Here, asthma refers to the condition which leads to narrow the airways, swell and produce
extra mucus which can lead to affect the breathing and make it difficulty. It also triggers the
coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath. There are some of the clinical sign of asthma which
can show a changes in the respiratory changes of Allira that may include the bronchospasm,
mucus production, inflammation which can lead to cause the sign and symptoms like wheezing,
shortness of breath, trouble breathing (Nilsen et. al., (2019)).
QUESTION 2
Salbutamol is one of the medication which are effective for any individual with Asthma.
This is the one which are given through the nebuliser to treat the severe asthma attacks. Here,
