  • Title: [Acute dyspnoea].
    Author: Wagner U, Vogelmeier C.
    Journal: Internist (Berl); 2005 Sep; 46(9):965-73. PubMed ID: 16041506.
    Abstract:
    Asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, interstitial lung diseases and myocardial dysfunction are the leading diagnoses of patients with dyspnoea. Acute dyspnoea appears suddenly or within a few hours and is caused by a relatively limited number of conditions some of which can be life-threatening. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to identify the cause of dyspnoea immediately. Once found, the disorder is treated according to the guidelines for the underlying disease.
