RESUMO
Post-infectious bronchiolitis obliterans (PIBO) is a lung disease characterized by chronic airflow limitation associated with small airway fibrosis and obliteration, caused by viral infection in the first years of life. According to the current clinical guidelines in our country, the bases of its treatment involve pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies. Among non-pharmacological strategies, pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is the standout, which consists of diagnostic and therapeutic management designed to evaluate and reverse function deterioration, and aimed at improving the quality of life and the prognosis of these patients.The objective of this review is to describe and discuss the components associated with pulmonary rehabilitation of PIBO patients, emphasizing the properties and attributes of the evaluation methods and the main treatment strategies that contribute to improving these patients' functionality
La bronquiolitis obliterante post infecciosa (BOPI) es una enfermedad pulmonar caracterizada por limitación crónica al flujo de aire asociado a fibrosis y obliteración de la vía aérea pequeña, que se produce como consecuencia de un cuadro infeccioso de origen viral durante los primeros años de vida. De acuerdo a la guía clínica vigente en nuestro país, las bases de su tratamiento se sustentan en estrategias farmacológicas y no farmacológicas. Entre las estrategias no farmacológicas destaca la rehabilitación respiratoria (RR), que se estructura a partir de la ejecución de protocolos de intervención con fines diagnósticos y terapéuticos, dirigidos a evaluar y revertir el deterioro funcional, teniendo como propósito central el mejorar la calidad de vida y el pronóstico de estos pacientes. El objetivo de la presente revisión es describir y discutir los componentes asociados a la rehabilitación pulmonar de los pacientes con BOPI, haciendo énfasis en las propiedades y atributos de los métodos de evaluación y en las principales estrategias de tratamiento que contribuyen a mejorar la funcionalidad de estos pacientes

OBJECTIVE: Post-infectious bronchiolitis obliterans (PIBO) is a clinical entity that has been classified as constrictive, fixed obstruction of the lumen by fibrotic tissue. However, recent studies using impulse oscillometry have reported bronchodilator responses in PIBO patients. The objective of this study was to evaluate bronchodilator responses in pediatric PIBO patients, comparing different criteria to define the response. METHODS: We evaluated pediatric patients diagnosed with PIBO and treated at one of two pediatric pulmonology outpatient clinics in the city of Porto Alegre, Brazil. Spirometric parameters were measured in accordance with international recommendations. RESULTS: We included a total of 72 pediatric PIBO patients. The mean pre- and post-bronchodilator values were clearly lower than the reference values for all parameters, especially FEF25-75%. There were post-bronchodilator improvements. When measured as mean percent increases, FEV1 and FEF25-75%, improved by 11% and 20%, respectively. However, when the absolute values were calculated, the mean FEV1 and FEF25-75% both increased by only 0.1 L. We found that age at viral aggression, a family history of asthma, and allergy had no significant effects on bronchodilator responses. CONCLUSIONS: Pediatric patients with PIBO have peripheral airway obstruction that is responsive to treatment but is not completely reversible with a bronchodilator. The concept of PIBO as fixed, irreversible obstruction does not seem to apply to this population. Our data suggest that airway obstruction is variable in PIBO patients, a finding that could have major clinical implications. OBJETIVO: A bronquiolite obliterante pós-infecciosa (BOPI) é uma entidade clínica que tem sido classificada como obstrução fixa e constritiva do lúmen por tecido fibrótico. Entretanto, estudos recentes utilizando oscilometria de impulso relataram resposta ao broncodilatador em pacientes com BOPI. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a resposta broncodilatadora em pacientes pediátricos com BOPI, comparando critérios diferentes para a definição da resposta. MÉTODOS: Foram avaliados pacientes pediátricos com diagnóstico de BOPI tratados em um de dois ambulatórios de pneumologia pediátrica na cidade de Porto Alegre (RS). Parâmetros espirométricos foram medidos de acordo com recomendações internacionais. RESULTADOS: Foram incluídos 72 pacientes pediátricos com BOPI no estudo. As médias dos valores pré- e pós-broncodilatador foram claramente inferiores aos valores de referência para todos os parâmetros, especialmente FEF25-75%. Houve uma melhora pós-broncodilatador. Quando medidos como aumentos percentuais médios, VEF1 e FEF25-75% melhoraram em 11% e 20%, respectivamente. Entretanto, quando os valores absolutos foram calculados, as médias de VEF1 e FEF25-75% aumentaram somente em 0,1 l. Verificamos que a idade da agressão viral, história familiar de asma e alergia não tiveram efeitos significativos na resposta ao broncodilatador. CONCLUSÕES: Pacientes pediátricos com BOPI têm uma obstrução das vias aéreas periféricas que responde ao tratamento, mas não uma reversão completa com o broncodilatador. O conceito de BOPI como obstrução fixa e irreversível parece não se aplicar a essa população. Nossos dados sugerem que a obstrução de vias aéreas em pacientes com BOPI é variável, e esse achado pode ter importantes implicações clínicas.

BACKGROUND: Postinfectious bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) is a chronic respiratory disease that usually follows a severe adenovirus infection. OBJECTIVE: To determine the evolution of pulmonary function and clinical outcome of children with postinfectious BO during childhood. METHODS: The study included patients diagnosed with postinfectious BO in whom at least two spirometries were performed within a minimum interval of 3â months. RESULTS: 46 met the inclusion criteria. The mean (±SD) follow-up period was 12.5 (±3.5) years. 197 spirometries and 41 plethysmographies were performed. Initial (9±3â years old) lung function was as follows (z score, mean±SD): forced vital capacity (FVC) -3.8±1; forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) -4.4±1; FEV1/FVC -2.2±1; forced expiratory flow (FEF)(25-75) -3.7±1; total lung capacity (TLC) 120±26%; residual volume (RV) 309±108%; and RV/TLC 55±13. During childhood, FVC and FEV1 increased by a mean of 11%/year (95% CI 9.3% to 12.6%; p<0.0001) and 9%/year (95% CI 7.7% to 10.2%; p<0.0001), and the FEV1/FVC ratio decreased by 1.9%/year (95% CI 1% to 2.8; p<0.001). The z score for FVC, FEV1 and FEV1/FVC decreased by 0.07 z score/year (95% CI 0.1 to 0.01; p<0.05), 0.09 z score/year (95% CI 0.1 to 0.05; p<0.01) and 0.04 z score/year (95% CI 0.09 to 0.001; p<0.02), respectively. During the follow-up period, 69% of patients required at least one hospital readmission and five required mechanical ventilation. Nine patients developed a thoracic deformity, and seven whose bronchiectasis did not respond to clinical treatment underwent a lobectomy. CONCLUSIONS: After a 12 year follow-up period, pulmonary function remained severely impaired, showing an obstructive pattern with air trapping that slowly improved during childhood. An unequal growth of lung parenchyma over the airways suggests dysinaptic growth. Patients required frequent readmission due to recurrent respiratory infections, and hypoxaemia improved slowly over time.

Introduction: Adenovirus infection is an important cause of pneumonia in Chilean children. Postinfectious Bronchiolitis Obliterans (PIBO) is the most important complication. There are few studies assessing pulmonary function and quality of life in PIBO patients. Objective: The aim of this study is to assess the pulmonary function and the quality of life of patients with PIBO and the correlation between both variables. Methods: 14 children with PIBO in follow up at the pediatric pulmonology outpatient clinic of a public children hospital were included in this study. Study period: April 2009 - April 2010. Pulmonary function was assessed in a medical visit by spirometry, flow/volume curve and intrathoracic gas volume measurement. The following indices were analyzed FVC, FEV1, FEV25-75, FEV1/FVC, RV, TLC, RV and RV/TLC. A survey of a self-administered Quality of Life (PedsQL, version 4.0, Spanish for Chile) was applied at the visit to investigate their global, physical and psychosocial quality of life. The Pearson linear correlation between quality of life and the pulmonary function test parameters was assessed, in the statistical analysis ap value < 0.05 was considered significant. Results: The mean age of our patients was 12.4 (range: 9-19 years-old). The functional alterations were characteristics of an obstructive respiratory disorder in 64.3 percent of the patients. Average pulmonary function test indices showed decreases in FEV1 (75 percent), FEV25-75 (48.8 percent), FEV1/FVC (67.6 percent) with normal value of FVC (93,7 percent) as well as pronounced increases in RV (333.5 percent), TLC (156 percent) and RV/TLC (51.8 percent). Mean change of FEV1 and FEV25-75post-bronchodilator was 11.3 percent and 26.4 percent respectively. Only 14.3 percent of our patients showed normal pulmonary function. The quality of life parameters were in average 58.2 percent of overall quality of life, 58.6 percent of physical quality of life and 57.9 percent of psychosocial ...
Introducción: La infección por adenovirus es una causa importante de neumonía en niños chilenos. La bronquiolitis obliterante (BOPI) es la complicación más importante. Existen pocos estudios donde evalúen la función pulmonar y la calidad de vida de los pacientes con BOPI. Objetivo: Evaluar la función pulmonar y la calidad de vida de los pacientes con BOPI y la correlación entre ambas variables. Métodos: Se incluyeron 14 niños con BOPI en el policlínico de la unidad de broncopulmonar de un hospital público de niños. Período de estudio: abril de 2009-abril de 2010. La función pulmonar se evaluó en una visita médica por espirometría, curva flujo / volumen y la determinación de volumen de gas intratorácico. Los índices analizados fueron los siguientes CVF, VEF1, FEV25-75, VEF1/CVF, VR,CPT, VR y VR / CPT. En la misma visita se realizó una encuesta auto-administrada de Calidad de Vida (PedsQL, versión 4.0, español de Chile) para investigar la calidad de vida global, física y psi-cosocial. Se aplicó la correlación lineal de Pearson entre calidad de vida y los parámetros de función pulmonar. Se consideró estadísticamente significativo unp <0,05. Resultados: La edad media de nuestros pacientes fue de 12,4 (rango: 9-19 años). La alteración funcional característica fue la obstructiva en el 64,3 por ciento de los pacientes. El promedio de los índices de pruebas de función pulmonar mostraron una disminución en VEF1 (75 por ciento), FEV25-75 (48,8 por ciento), VEF1/CVF (67,6 por ciento) con un valor normal de la CVF (93,7 por ciento), así como aumentos pronunciados en VR (333,5 por ciento), CPT (156 por ciento) y VR/CPT (51,8 por ciento). La media del cambio del VEF1 y FEV25-75post-broncodilatador fue 11,3 por ciento y 26,4 por ciento respectivamente. Sólo el 14,3 por ciento mostró una función pulmonar normal. Los parámetros de calidad de vida fueron en promedio 58,2 por ciento de calidad de vida general, 58,6 por ciento de calidad de vida física y el 57,9 por ciento...

AIM: Postinfectious bronchiolitis obliterans (PIBO) is an infrequent yet potentially severe disorder following acute lower pulmonary infection (ALRI) in children. In infants and young children PIBO have been strongly associated with Adenovirus (Ad). The purpose of this study was to analyze the clinical features and pulmonary function findings in children with PIBO. Cases caused by Ad were compared with cases in which no viral agent was identified. METHODS: Fifty-eight children with PIBO were prospectively studied. Clinical data and pulmonary function tests (spirometry and plethysmography) were evaluated. Patients were divided in two groups according to the identification of the causal agent. Group 1 (G1): Adenovirus (+) Group 2: No etiologic agent identified. RESULTS: Fifty-eight patients (male/female ratio 3.4:1); median age 8 years; mean age at initial injury 11 months; median time of hospitalization at acute stage of disease 60 days. Spirometry: FVC 68 ± 13%, FEV1 40.5 ± 11%, FMMF(25-75%) 16.7 ± 7.5%. Pletysmography: TLC 136 ± 22%, FRC 208 ± 50%, RV 343 ± 102%, RV/TLC 59 ± 10, SGaw 0.05 ± 0.02. When clinical, spirometric and plethysmographic data were compared, no statistically significant difference was found between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS: PIBO is an extremely crippling lung disease with significant obstructive pattern in PFT. Both analyzed groups shared similar characteristics in the acute phase of the disease and in the severity of the sequelar pulmonary disease.

Bronchiolitis obliterans is an uncommon and severe form of chronic obstructive lung disease that results from an insult to the lower respiratory tract. The bronchiolitis obliterans was described as a complication of graft versus host disease in bone marrow or lung transplant recipients. Bronchiolitis obliterans is most commonly seen in children after severe viral lower respiratory tract infections. The understanding of pathology, pathogenesis and molecular pathology, as well as the best treatment in bronchiolitis obliterans remain the subject of ongoing investigations. This review discusses our current knowledge on the different areas of bronchiolitis obliterans associated to infectious disease.

Post infectious obliterans bronchiolitis (OB) causes persistent pulmonary function impairment and could affect patient ability to perform exercise. Six minute-walk test (6MWT) is a useful tool to study these aspects. Objective: Children with OB were evaluated with spirometry and 6MWT and the relationship between spirometrics measurements and 6MWT were determined. Twenty-seven children with OB were studied with a base line spirometry and 6MWT. Correlation between spirometry and 6MWT: covered distance, Borg index (BI), oxygen saturation (0(2)S) and heart rate (HR), were carried out using Rho of Spearman with SPSS 11.5. There was not relation between the covered distance and spirometrics values; only FVC correlates with final 0(2)S (rho = 0.4; p = 0.02). The other spirometrics variables correlates with BI, 0(2)S andHR; Interestingly FEV1correlates with: BI (rho = -0.7; p < 0.01), 0(2)S (rho = 0.5; p < 0.01) and HR (rho = -0.5; p < 0.01). BI was significant related to FEV1/FVC (rho = -0.7; p < 0.01) and FEF25-75 (rho = -0.8; p < 0.01). Airflow obstruction, especifically a low FEV1 is related with a high BI and HR; and also with a lower 0(2)S at the end of6MWT Increase ofBI is the change most related with airflow obstruction.
La Bronquiolitis Obliterante (BO) postviral produce alteraciones en la función pulmonar que pueden repercutir en la capacidad para realizar ejercicio, la cual se puede evaluar con el test de marcha de 6 minutos (TM6). Objetivo: Estudiar con esta prueba a niños con BO postviral y determinar la relación entre variables espirométricas y los resultados del TM6. Veintisiete pacientes, se estudiaron con espirometría basal y TM6. Se relacionaron variables espirométricas con resultados del TM6: distancia caminada, índice de Borg (IB), saturación de oxígeno (Sa0(2)) y frecuencia cardíaca (FC), mediante Rho de Spearman utilizando SPSS 11,5. No hubo correlación entre la distancia caminada y ninguna variable espirométrica; la CVF sólo se correlacionó con Sa0(2) final (rho = 0,4; p = 0,02). El resto de las variables espirométricas se correlacionaron con IB, Sa0(2) y FC; destacando VEF1 con: IB (rho = -0,7; p < 0,01), Sa0(2) (rho = 0,5; p < 0,01) y FC (rho = -0,5; p < 0,01). El IB también se correlacionó significativamente con FEV1/CVF (rho = -0,7; p < 0,01) y FEF25-75 (rho = -0,8; p < 0,01). La obstrucción al flujo aéreo, en especial un menor FEV1, se relaciona con altos IB y FC; además con una menor Sa0(2) al final del TM6. El aumento del IB es la variable que más se relacionó con obstrucción al flujo aéreo.

Bronquiolitis Obliterante (BO) en niños es una entidad nosológica pulmonar poco frecuente y de escaso entendimiento fisiológico. Sin embargo, para el kinesiólogo es fundamental conocerla a fondo, pues cuenta con un importante papel en la prevención, reconocimiento y tratamiento, tanto en la etapa aguda como secuelar. En este artículo se da a conocer el estado del arte de esta patología con énfasis en la BO post viral que en nuestro país es la más importante. El desarrollar estrategias terapéuticas innovadoras en ésta y otras patologías crónicas debe ser nuestro desafío en el futuro próximo.

BACKGROUND: Post-infectious bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) is a chronic obstructive airway disease associated with inflammation and fibrosis of the small airways; it is more common in children who have had acute viral bronchiolitis. No previous studies have reported the immune response of BO. Unbalanced Th1/Th2 immune response might be one of the risk factors for developing this illness. AIM: To compare the production of interferon (IFN)-gamma, interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-10 in peripheral blood mononuclear cell cultures in children with BO and in healthy children. METHODS: From March 2003 to October 2003, children with BO and healthy children were selected from the paediatric outpatient clinics in our centre. Peripheral blood was collected and mononuclear cells were separated and cultured (96 hours) with 1% phytohaemagglutinin stimulation. The supernatant was stored and cytokine levels were measured through ELISA. RESULTS: IFN-gamma, IL-4 and IL-10 levels were not significantly different between the groups studied. Family history of atopy was significantly associated with subjects with BO (p=0.02). CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that unbalanced peripheral blood Th1/Th2 immune response of children with post-infectious BO might not be associated with its pathophysiology. Further studies are required to better understand the role of risk factors, including viral genotype, viral load or tissue repair abnormalities in the development of post-infectious BO.
