The role of breathing training in asthma management

Abstract: Current evidence suggests that breathing training programmes can be effective in improving patient-reported outcomes such as symptoms, quality of life and psychological impact; and may reduce the use of rescue bronchodilator medication. There is little evidence that airways physiology, hyper-responsiveness or inflammation is affected by such training. The optimal way of providing breathing training within the context of routine asthma care is still uncertain.

“…These inhalers are said to be similar in efficacy, but no trials have made direct comparisons between them. A reliever inhaler (such as Salbutamol) is usually prescribed as well, as in the patient's case, to give immediate on-the-spot relief from asthma symptoms (Asthma UK, 2016) Discussion BR for asthma has been associated with improvements in several patient centered endpoints, such as symptoms, health status and psychological well-being (Bruton and Thomas, 2011), but studies related to the mechanisms of the intervention have lagged behind those documenting clinical effectiveness. Although one of the intuitively logical theories is that BR works through altering breathing pattern, no published trials of asthma BR have included detailed objective measures of breathing pattern in their outcome measures.…”

“…Non-respiratory components may include advice on nutrition and use of medication, asthma education, aerobic exercise prescription, and psychological support to address the associated anxiety and depression that can accompany asthma 2,16. In clinical practice, instruction is usually delivered individually by an appropriately trained therapist.…”

“…La technique Buteyko, utilisée chez des patients asthmatiques adultes peu sévères, montrait dans un essai contrôlé randomisé, une amélioration dans le contrôle de leur asthme six mois après le traitement [29]. Il est rapporté dans la plupart des études une amélioration de la qualité de vie, mais avec la nécessité de conforter les résultats dans des études fortes méthodologiquement [30,31]. Sa connaissance de la mécanique ventilatoire et de la physiologie respiratoire font du MK l'acteur principal dans la mise en place, le suivi et l'évaluation de ces techniques de ventilation (rôle spécifique).…”
