过去两年,奥克兰因急性哮喘突然死亡的年轻人明显增加。审查了 22 例死亡病例。新西兰哮喘治疗的处方习惯一直在改变,口服茶碱药物的使用大幅增加,特别是缓释制剂,在许多患者中已经取代了吸入类固醇和色甘酸。有人建议,茶碱和高剂量吸入β2受体激动剂之间可能存在叠加毒性,导致心脏骤停。此外,当用支气管扩张剂定期对症治疗取代吸入类固醇或色甘酸时,患者对哮喘危象的感知可能会延迟。
An apparent increase in young people dying suddenly from acute asthma has been noted in the past 2 years in Auckland. 22 fatal cases were reviewed. Prescribing habits for asthma therapy have been changing in New Zealand, with a considerable increase in the use of oral theophylline drugs, particularly sustained-release preparations, which in many patients have replaced inhaled steroids and cromoglycate. It is suggested that there may be an additive toxicity between theophylline and inhaled β2-agonists at high doses which produces cardiac arrest. Also when regular symptomatic treatment with bronchodilators replaces inhaled steroids or cromoglycate the patient's perception of an asthma crisis may be delayed.
