Bronchospasm and Wheezing
- During general anesthesia, signs of bronchospasm include wheezing, high peak inspiratory pressures, increased intrinsic PEEP, decreased expiratory tidal volumes, and an upsloping capnograph (obstructive pattern).[en.wikipedia.org]
Dry Cough
- Asthma cough is a type of dry cough caused by bronchial spasms. Research shows that asthma cough is caused by excessive immune action against irritants or allergens.[streetdirectory.com]

- Epidemiology [ 1 ] Undoubtedly, asthma is a very common condition and, according to Asthma UK [ 2 ] : 5.4 million people in the UK receive treatment for asthma: 1 in 11 children and 1 in 12 adults.[patient.info]
- Epidemiology of Perioperative Bronchospasm. The occurrence of perioperative bronchospasm has been reported in up to 9% of asthmatic patients given general anesthesia, mainly after endotracheal tube insertion. 17 Smoking also represents a major risk.[anesthesiology.pubs.asahq.org]

- Causes & Pathophysiology of Bronchospasm As mentioned previously, there are 3 main factors which cause Bronchospasm which include inflammation in the airways, spasm of the smooth muscles and excessive production of mucus.[epainassist.com]
- The pathophysiology of asthma generally includes, but is not limited to: (1) bronchial spasm and/or constriction of smooth muscle tissue due to a reduced production of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) resulting in a reduction of airways diameter;[chiro.org]
