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: a new therapeutic option for the treatment of severe, uncontrolled asthma in adults [PDF]

European Respiratory Review, 2014
Bronchial thermoplasty is a young yet promising treatment for severe asthma whose benefit for long-term asthma control outweighs the short-term risk of deterioration and hospitalisation in the days following the treatment.

Safety and efficacy of bronchial thermoplasty in Australia 5 years post‐procedure

Respirology, Volume 28, Issue 11, Page 1053-1059, November 2023., 2023
In an Australian cohort of very severe asthmatics treated with bronchial thermoplasty, maintenance of effect was seen at 5 years with sustained reductions in ACQ score and exacerbation frequency. When compared with baseline CT imaging, some cases demonstrated bronchial dilatation, without clinical features of bronchiectasis.

In vitro, in silico and in vivo study challenges the impact of bronchial thermoplasty on acute airway smooth muscle mass loss. [PDF]

, 2018
Bronchial thermoplasty is a treatment for asthma. It is currently unclear whether its histopathological impact is sufficiently explained by the proportion of airway wall that is exposed to temperatures necessary to affect cell survival.Airway smooth ...

Targeting Airway Remodeling in Severe Asthma: Is There a Window of Opportunity for Biologic Therapy Predicting Effects Using Causal Artificial Intelligence?

Allergy, Volume 81, Issue 9, Page 3157-3170, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Airway remodeling is increasingly recognized as a major determinant of asthma progression, fixed airflow limitation, and long‐term morbidity, particularly in severe disease. Although biologic therapies have transformed outcomes by reducing exacerbations and systemic corticosteroid exposure, their potential to modify structural airway ...
