Q

Bronchiolitis pathophysiology

A
  • Proliferation of goblet cells –> excess mucus production
  • Inflammation, bronchiolar constriction
  • Lymphicytes –> submucosal oedema
  • Mucus, oedema and increased cells in bronchioles –> hyperinflation, increased airway resistance, atelectasis and VP mismatch
    bronchioles inaflame, produce mucus, oedema and necrosis cause obstruction
