Bronchial asthma is characterised by hyper responsiveness of tracheo-bronchial smooth muscle to a variety of stimuli, resulting in narrowing of air tubes, often accompanied by increased secretion and mucosal edema.
Extrinsic asthma : It is mostly episodic, less prone to status asthmaticus. In others, a variety of trigger factors (infections, irritants, pollution, exercise, exposure to cold air, psychogenic) may be involved.
Intrinsic asthma : It tends to be perennial, status asthmaticus is more common.
Most cells present in lungs release mediators (histamine, SRS-A etc) leading to constriction of bronchial smooth muscle, cause mucosal edema and viscid secretion resulting in reversible airway obstruction.
