I wish I would have reviewed this before my pharmacology test-I had all the guidelines to follow but without a clear explanation I was completely lost!! I now know and understand asthma treatment!!!
I’m an RN wanting to understand how medicine works so that I’m able to better care for my patients. You lectures are easy to understand! You have helped me so much.
+Dan Hamond There are a few tips for relieving asthma quickly Know Your Triggers. Use HEPA Filters. Clear the Smoke. (I learned these and the reasons they work from Laken chest remedy website )
+D Star hey ,if anyone else needs to find out about asthma cure try Knewreck Asthma Eradicator Guide (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate got cool results with it.
This is so clear and precise! I have a learning disability, so just listening to my professor lecture doesn't help! Your calm voice and diagrams really help! Thank you!!!

SO MANY LECTURERS MAKE MEDICAL AND NURSING SCHOOL HARDER THAN IT HAS TO BE. THIS LECTURE HAS TO BE THE MOST STRAIGHFORWAD AND CLEAR LECTURE ON ASTHMA THAT I'VE HEARD.
Thanks dr I need to listen to you All the time my condition is getting Complicated progressively I am in good hands with good drs I am so sick and tired of coughing some times I go depressed I am taking good care of myself Thanks dr you are a blessing to me. Baljit
I am so glad and thankful I came across this channel! Im in nursing school and these helps me understand everything so much better!! I have a test on respiratory tomorrow!!!
I have asthma, and this helped me a lot. One issue I have is thrush with the inhaled corticosteroids, despite rinsing my mouth. It really puzzles the PCMs I've had.
Great videos, I am not a doctor, but I see many patients with asthma, COPD, ear infections and sinusitis. I opened a Salt therapy business eight years ago and I’ve watched thousands of people avoid harmful medications, surgeries(especially adenoid, removal, and tubes in the ears). When will the medical community recommend real, effective treatments like ours BEFORE they give potentially harmful steroids, etc. Please keep educating people about truly non-invasive effective therapies like you do with red light therapy 🙏🏽💪🏽❤
I am preparing usmle step 1 and I find these videos amazing. please do some more because they are so helpful. love the way you explain all this stuff. you make it look easier 😊
Thank you for this lecture series. I found these lectures to be concise, highlighting on key areas in a short amount of time. This is exactly what I needed to know in reviewing material. Thank you for helping out this PA student.
Thanks, carry on what you are doing and never think to be materialistic. For such good things you will get rewards from where, even you don,t know. Prepare more videos and help the students and general people.
I had very bad asthma during until I left home at nineteen. I also had attacks in other places but mostly in the house I grew up. When I visited my parents I experienced flare ups until one last almost lethal attack when I was twenty four. Then my parents moved to a new home and I have never experienced asthma again, visiting them or else. Sometimes I ask myself if yeast at the old place caused this or something else that triggered it. The doctor had said it was an allergy for dust mites.
Great explanation but just to clarify on some errors I noticed. 1) For SABA, I would recommend albuterol and not levalbuterol that is the R-enantiomer of albuterol. There has been no benefit of using this medication (brand xopenex) and is more costly to the patient. They found in animal studies that the S-enantiomer caused side effects but when they did human trials they did not find any significant side effects. 2) MDI vs. nebulizer and stating that there is no difference between the two is a HUGE misconception. You should ALWAYS prefer to give your patients MDIs as quite a few studies have shown that MDIs were able to give more of the drug into the airways of patients especially children. Using nebulizers on children causes tachycardia so especially in this patient population you would always want to use MDIs. They are more effective, don't require electricity, and are more efficient (nebulizers take at least 15-20 minutes to administer). Source: I'm a pharmacy student
excellent lecture as always. Please do consider not using dark blue colour when writing on the videos as it really affects visibility of the crucial information being shared
Thank you very much for the explanation. Salman Khan was spot on about the improved learning from short videos with concise explanations and VISUALS that can be replayed. You explained your criteria for going from step 1 to 2 and 2 to 3, but what about after that? Is 2+ SABA uses/week still the defining factor for going up further steps? Thank you very much.
Excellent lecture, thank you!! Request for COPD w/ treatment per GOLD criteria. Also perhaps how to distinguish between COPD and asthma w/ PFT findings. Thx!
When I was about 3 or 4, we moved into a house that had roaches (my mom was a single mom and couldn't afford much). A few months after living there, I started having some pretty bad asthma attacks. Once we moved out, the attacks stopped. In fact, by high school, I was able to out run everyone. I was fast, but not the fastest, but I could run for much, much longer than the other kids. About a year ago, a friend of mine moved into an apartment that had roaches. The first couple times I went there, I was fine. Then, things started to progressively get worse each time I stopped by. First a mild cough with sputum, then slight wheezing, and finally a full on asthma attack. Needless to say, I haven't been back since, and he's not allowed in my house (lol).
I'm at 4 or 5 normally, been to 6 many times. Never was told any of this. Told COPD but wonder at that. How can I encourage my doctor to educate himself?
Hello Medcram, you alluded that anti-muscarinic medication may also have a role in Asthma Tx but you haven't mentioned it in your treatment stages. Curious to know why. Thanks for the video, its very helpful.
I know this is a very old video, but I have a question: what about medications who have both ICS and LABA (Relvar has fluticasone AND vilanterol). Is it safe to start with something like this, and Ventolin 0.2 when needed? Thank you very much!
I only have one inhaler, even though I can use my inhaler up to 5 times a week. Well I exercise up to 5 times a week. I know, I'm lazy. Thank you for this (and the other) video! My understanding of asthma is better now!
+Skylynxify Reborn, I'm sorry I was not more clear. I, too, have had chronic asthma for close to 50 years. My brother died of it after 33 years. Also, I was, at one time, a respiratory therapist. My concern is that "asthma is reversible" continues the mistaken idea that asthma is only the attacks, and nothing else.
Hy your videos are amazing, if you had time could you please do one on skin integrity, such as the skin anatomy, pressure sores and skin injuries, thank you
I think you're confusing exacerbation/flare-up with symtoms. Exacerbation is caracterized by increased symptoms or air flow limitation or use of SABA which require use of systemic corticosteroid for a short duration. Symptoms are shortness of breath, cough, limitation of activity etc which resolve after use of SABA in the intermittent asthma. Intermittent asthma have a risk of less than two exacrebation per year. Correct me if i'm wrong.
I wish I would have reviewed this before my pharmacology test-I had all the guidelines to follow but without a clear explanation I was completely lost!! I now know and understand asthma treatment!!!
Thanks Dr Seheult! Your lectures are so simple. It was as if I was listening in my native Yoruba language. More grace!
best videos on youtube. i am an engineer by training and i understand these two videos, which have helped me understand my mild asthma better.
As an intermittent, I found these lectures most informative! And somewhat comforting.
I’m an RN wanting to understand how medicine works so that I’m able to better care for my patients. You lectures are easy to understand! You have helped me so much.
Genuinely the best lecturer on youtube
+Dan Hamond Thank you!
+Dan Hamond indeed
+Dan Hamond There are a few tips for relieving asthma quickly
Know Your Triggers.
Use HEPA Filters.
Clear the Smoke.
(I learned these and the reasons they work from Laken chest remedy website )
I've been researching best natural remedy for asthma and found an awesome resource at Laken chest remedy (google it if you're interested)

I'm so glad you've clearly explained it, because my doctor's have always just given med's, but never explained anything.
Thanks dr I need to listen to you

Thank you for the 2 videos on asthma.

+Bartek Lipko Thanks for the comment
I'm at 4 or 5 normally, been to 6 many times. Never was told any of this. Told COPD but wonder at that. How can I encourage my doctor to educate himself?
excellent presentation! thank you
Hello Medcram, you alluded that anti-muscarinic medication may also have a role in Asthma Tx but you haven't mentioned it in your treatment stages. Curious to know why. Thanks for the video, its very helpful.
Love these videos!! how about one on Respiratory failure and Acute Respiratory distress syndrome?
very clear explanations thank you very much
I know this is a very old video, but I have a question: what about medications who have both ICS and LABA (Relvar has fluticasone AND vilanterol). Is it safe to start with something like this, and Ventolin 0.2 when needed? Thank you very much!
I only have one inhaler, even though I can use my inhaler up to 5 times a week. Well I exercise up to 5 times a week. I know, I'm lazy.
Thank you for this (and the other) video! My understanding of asthma is better now!
These were great videos, but they didn't go into what happens with people who have severe, persistent asthma, and how much "reversibility" is reduced.
+Skylynxify Reborn, I'm sorry I was not more clear. I, too, have had chronic asthma for close to 50 years. My brother died of it after 33 years. Also, I was, at one time, a respiratory therapist.
My concern is that "asthma is reversible" continues the mistaken idea that asthma is only the attacks, and nothing else.
Love your videos and voice. 😀
thank u so much sir...please keep adding more nd more😊
What if after the challenge test, the abuterol does NOT help or form that "V?"
I love these videos!
Question: how do you actually confirm asthma? How do you confirm your patient is having asthma. Triad of symptoms? Do you need to do a PFT?
What about Methylxanthine? Is it often use in clinical practice?
Is adding lignocaine in neb alongwith duolin good for chronic cough...please reply

Keesha Kaplan You're welcome, thanks for the comment
Can you use anti histamine to reduce histamine which is causing the inflammation
I think you're confusing exacerbation/flare-up with symtoms. Exacerbation is caracterized by increased symptoms or air flow limitation or use of SABA which require use of systemic corticosteroid for a short duration.
Symptoms are shortness of breath, cough, limitation of activity etc which resolve after use of SABA in the intermittent asthma. Intermittent asthma have a risk of less than two exacrebation per year. Correct me if i'm wrong.

Amazing,THANKS!! :)
brillliant! Like this a lot :)
