Competence in bronchial thermoplasty [PDF]

Panminerva Medica, 2019
Bronchial thermoplasty (BT) is an innovative non-pharmacological endoscopic treatment for patients with severe persistent asthma based on controlled heat release with a device called Alair™ Catheter (Boston Scientific, Natick, MA, USA). The Alair™ system is the first device that works by delivering radiofrequency or thermal energy to selectively reduce

Bronchial thermoplasty: Redefining its role [PDF]

Respirology, 2020
ABSTRACTIn this review, we trace (i) the origins of bronchial thermoplasty, (ii) the development of a solid evidence base for efficacy and safety, (iii) the emerging understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of action and (iv) the place in therapy today. Future challenges are then discussed.

Bronchiectasis after bronchial thermoplasty [PDF]

Journal of Thoracic Disease, 2018
Bronchial thermoplasty (BT) is used in the treatment of severe refractory asthma. It has been found to be beneficial to long-term improvements in the rate of asthma exacerbation, quality of life questionnaire answers (AQLQ), hospitalization, and emergency room visits.

Bronchial thermoplasty attenuates bronchodilator responsiveness

Respiratory Medicine, 2023
Objective: Bronchial thermoplasty is an effective intervention to improve respiratory symptoms and to reduce the rate of exacerbations in uncontrolled severe asthma. A reduction in airway smooth muscle is arguably the most widely discussed mechanisms accounting for these clinical benefits.
