Journal Title: Journal of Evolution of Medical and Dental Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 21
Abstract
Bronchial asthma is such a common disease that, nearly 10-12% of total population is suffering at some stage of life with this disease. We can quantitate the severity of airway obstruction also by electrocardiographic techniques. Patients with acute severe asthma will manifest electrocardiographic changes ranging from sinus tachycardia, P and ST & T wave changes etc. These changes were reverted to normal after therapy.
