摘要

In severe asthma, high doses of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are used in order to achieve clinical and functional control. This study aimed to evaluate lung function in outpatients (children and adolescents) with severe asthma in Brazil, all of whom were treated with high doses of ICS. We evaluated all spirometry tests together and by ICS dose: 800 and >?800?μg/day. This was a 3-year longitudinal study in which we analyzed 384 spirometry tests in 65 severe asthma patients (6–18?years of age), divided into two groups by the dose of ICS (budesonide or equivalent): 800 and >?800?μg/day. At baseline, the forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and the FEV1/forced vital capacity (FVC) ratio were both 800?μg/day group, there were no statistical increases or decreases in FEV1, the FEV1/FVC ratio, or forced expiratory flow between 25 and 75% of the FVC (FEF25–75%), when calculated as percentages of the predicted values. However, the z-score for FEF25–75% showed a statistically significant reduction, in the sample as a whole and in the >?800?μg/day group. Also in the >?800?μg/day group, there was a significant reduction in the post-bronchodilator FEV1% (p?=?0.004). The fact that the spirometric parameters (as percentages of the predicted values) remained constant in the >?800?μg/day group, whereas there was a gain in lung function in the sample as a whole, suggests an early plateau phase in the >?800?μg/day group. However, there was some loss of lung function in the >?800?μg/day group, as evidenced by a decrease in the z-score for FEF25–75%, suggesting irreversible small airway impairment, and by a reduction in the post-bronchodilator FEV1%, suggesting reduced reversibility of airway obstruction. Among children and adolescents with severe asthma, the use of ICS doses higher than those recommended for age does not appear to improve lung function.
