DYSPNEA

Menaldi Rasmin
Department of Pulmonology and Respiratory Medicine,
Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia
Persahabatan Hospital, Jakarta
Diagnosis
Dyspnea:
Discomfort feeling in breathing
Subjective and difficult to measure
Etiology : lung, heart, endocrine, kidney,
neurology, hematology, rheumatology and
psichology
Prevalence of dyspnea no accurate data
INTRODUCTION
1
Diagnosis
VENTILATORY REGULATION
located in the medulla of the brainstem
composed of several subcenters, that interact to
produce rhytmical breathing
output is transmitted to phrenic nerves to diaphragm
and respiratory muscles
affected by
Higher cortical centers
Mechanical
Chemical stimuli
Ventilatory Central Centre
Diagnosis
Cortical Centers
input to the ventilatory center
result; breathing partially under voluntary control
Mechanical reflexes
emanate from skeletal muscle spindle
pulmonary vessels and tissue
Diagnosis
Dyspnea
breathlessness
shortness of breath
uncomfortable or unpleasant
respiratory-related sensation

not tachypnea, not hyperpnea and not hyperventilation
but; difficult, labored, uncomfortable breathing; it is
unpleasant type of breathing though not painful in the
usual sense of the word.
It is subjective and, like pain, it involves both perception
of the sensation by the patient and his reaction to the
sensation
Comroe (1966)
Diagnosis
an uncomfortable awareness of breathing
or an increased respiratory effort that is
unpleasant and regarded as in appropriate
(Mahler et al 1984)
DEFINITION OF DYSPNEA
The American Thoracic Society (ATS):


the term of discomfort perception subjective in
breathing that consist of sensation with different
intensity as a results of interaction of various
physiologic, social and environtmental factors.

MEASUREMENT OF DYSPNEA
Aim : to differentiate the severity and to
evaluate the nature of dyspnea
Technique of measurement :
visual analogue scale
Borg scale
Medical Research Council (MRC) Dyspnea
Scale
American Thoracic Sosiety (ATS) Dyspnea
Scale
Baseline Dyspnea Index (BDI)
Transitional Dyspnea Index (TDI)
Diagnosis
ATS dyspnea index
Grade 1 : No dyspnea except severe
exercise activity
Grade 2 : Dyspnea when climb the step
in hurry or climb a small hill

Grade 3 : Walk slower compared to
common people
Grade 4 : Must stop for breathing after
100 yard walk
Grade 5 : Dyspnea while put on / off
the clothes
