AB  - Obstructive  airway  disease  is  the  most  common  chronic  pulmonary  pathology  encountered  in  emergency  medicine.  Its  most  common  etiology,  asthma,  is  characterized  by  bronchoconstriction  and  airway  hyperresponsiveness  to  certain  stimuli.  These  stimuli  trigger  inflammatory  mediators  that  lead  to  airway  inflammation,  mucosal  edema,  and,  ultimately,  reversible  bronchospasm.1
