Transcription de la présentation

  1. ALLERGIC RHINITIS

  2. Allergic Reactions • Allergy • An inappropriate, often harmful response of the immune system to normally harmless substances • Hypersensitive reaction to an allergen initiated by immunological mechanisms that is usually mediated by IgE antibodies • Allergen: the substance that causes the allergic response

  3. Related Anatomic StructuresCompromised by Allergic Rhinitis

  4. Useful classification of allergic rhinitis • Intermittent. Occurs less than 4 days/week or for less than 4 weeks • Persistent. Occurs more than 4 days/week and for more than 4 weeks • Mild. One or more of the following – normal sleep; normal daily activities, sport, leisure; normal work and school; symptoms not troublesome • Moderate. One or more of the following – abnormal sleep; impairment of daily activities, sport, leisure; problems caused at work or school; troublesome symptoms

  5. ALLERGENS SEASONAL Occupational • Pollens Bakery,Dust • Fungi Washing powder • Grass Latex,Drugs Perennial Food • House dust mite Tartazine,Sulphate,Cheese • Cattle field Fish,Nuts,Eggs • Cockroaches Citrus fruits

  6. Allergic RhinitisFirst exposure – Phase of sensitizationOn re-exposure- Mast cell degranulation Exposure of genetically predisposed individuals to allergens (pollen, animal dander, fur) Activation of T-lymphocytes Stimulates IgE production by B-lymphocytes IgE coat mast cells [on re-exposure mast cell degranulation]

  7. Allergic Rhinitis: Inflammatory mediators Released by inflammatory cells (mast cells, eosinophils, lymphocytes) • Leukotrienes • hypersecretion of mucus • oedema (Increased vascular permeability) • Histamine • itching, rhinorrhea (Allergic rhinitis) • Cytokines • Interleukins (IL) • IL-4 (IgE production) • IL-3 and IL-5 (eosinophil, mast cell recruitment / activation)

  8. MUST KNOW: • Age - Baby, child, adult • Duration • Symptoms • Rhinorrhoea (runny nose) • Nasal congestion • Nasal itching • Watery eyes • Irritant eyes • Discharge from the eyes • Sneezing • Previous history • Associated conditions • Asthma • Medication

  9. Treatment Options: Allergic Rhinitis • Antihistamines • Oral: Most common form of Treatment. (Drowsiness / Dryness of mouth / Urinary retention / Blurred vision / appetite +).Cetrizine, • Nasal Spray : Azelastine. Potent H1 blocker with immediate effect • Decongestants/ Corticosteroids • Nasal Sprays: Most effective treatment of AR / certain types of perennial rhinitis (Beclomethasone / Budesonide / Fluticasone / Mometasone. • Reduce swelling & secretions in nasal mucosa (anti-inflammatory) • Oral Corticosteroids: Short term

  10. Further advice • 1 Car windows and air vents should be kept closed while driving. Otherwise a high pollen concentration inside the car can result. • 2 Where house dust mite is identified as a problem, regular cleaning of the house to maintain dust levels at a minimum can help.
