Management of Dyspnea in Patients With Far-Advanced Lung Disease IN MARCH 2001 1 DRS JOHN AND JUDITH LUCE DISCUSSED THE management of dyspnea in the seriously ill, presenting 2 cases. The first patient, Mrs D, was a 74-year-old white woman with dyspnea secondary to emphysema. The second patient, Mrs I, was a 65-year-old white woman diagnosed with limited-stage small-cell lung cancer and a central nervous system (CNS) recurrence of her cancer. The authors described 4 management strategies for dyspnea: reducing ventilatory impedance, reducing ventilatory demand, improving respiratory muscle function, and altering central perception. They also advised physicians to proactivelyencouragepatientsandtheircaregivers todiscuss issues suchasacceptingor forgoing mechanical ventilationandother aggressive therapies, to prepare advance directives, and to participate in a comprehensive plan to manage their dyspnea.
