*The article was translated into English using automatic translation. The editors are working on its improvement.
During diseases such as bronchial asthma or obstructive bronchitis, a severe and dangerous condition that requires emergency care - reflex bronchospasm - periodically occurs.
This is a pathological narrowing of the lumen of small caliber bronchi and bronchioles, causing shortness of breath and respiratory failure. As a result of this process, a small amount of oxygen enters the tissues and the body is oversaturated with carbon dioxide. The patient experiences a feeling of suffocation, breathing becomes heavy, and exhalation is accompanied by shortness of breath.
Reflex bronchospasm refers to emergency human conditions that require assistance immediately, here and now.
