7. Chronic dilatation of peripheral airways, localised or widespread, with loss of ciliated epithelium Occurs from destruction of muscular and elastic components of the bronchial walls Stationary mucus acts as a breeding environment for bacteria to grow and which is the source of recurrent infections Lorraine Ozerovitch 2012 - INGID

9. Common – Pseudomonas aeruginosa – Haemophilus influenzae Less common – Staphylococcus aureus – Streptococcus pneumoniae – Moraxella catarrhalis – Stenotrophamonas maltophilia – Klebsiella pneumoniae Lorraine Ozerovitch 2012 - INGID

10. Cole (1986): The Vicious Cycle GOAL: Halt the bacterial process which in turn will impact on the inflammatory process The clinical course is variable Lorraine Ozerovitch 2012 - INGID Microbial Infection (e.g.Haemophilus influenzae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa) Impaired Lung Defences (e.g. Antibody Deficiency, Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia, Cystic Fibrosis) Tissue Damage (To epithelial cells and the structure of the airway wall leading to increased mucus production which is poorly cleared) Inflammation (Neutrophilic inflammation causes damage to the tissue through proteolytic enzymes and oxidative stress) A VICIOUS CYCLE OF INFECTION AND INFLAMMATION

11. UK: 1:1000 hosp beds have a Bx pt (Sita-Lumsden and Wilson 2009) US /NZ: 3.7-4.2: 100, 000 higher in the elderly ≥ 75yrs (Weycher et al 2005; Twiss et al 2005) 1000 die a year, 3% increase yr on yr (Roberts and Hubbard 2010) BTS guideline (2010) may assist clinicians’ awareness in early detection and management Lorraine Ozerovitch 2012 - INGID

12. Modern bronchiectasis is the end result of a number of different pathologies Lorraine Ozerovitch 2012 - INGID Innate weakness in the lung’s defenses (e.g. PCD) or deficiency in the body’s ability to fight infection (e.g. CVID) Born with normal host defenses then catches a severe chest infection (e.g. tuberculosis) or experience some other insult to the airway (e.g. smoke inhalation) Acquire an excessive immune response e.g. allergic broncho- pulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) Idiopathic – research suggest an upset in the immune response causing an exaggerated inflammatory response Bronchiectasis

14. CVID is a heterogeneous group of conditions characterised by: Antibody deficiency, Autoimmune disorders and Granulomatous disease Commonest cause of primary antibody deficiency (PID) ESID criteria of CVID is “marked decrease in IgG and a reduction of a least one isotypes; IgM or IgA” Average time between onset of symptoms and diagnosis is 7 years in the UK Lorraine Ozerovitch 2012 - INGID

15. Prevalence 1 in 25, 000 individuals (Parks et al 2008) ESID database identifies 20.7% with PID has CVID (Gathmann et al 2009) Mean age of CVID diagnosis is early 30’s RBH bx study identified 2% had CVID, 4% had other immune deficiencies (Ozerovitch et al 2006) Lorraine Ozerovitch 2012 - INGID

16. Symptoms of cough and phlegm did not impact on patients’ activity or confidence levels (Ozerovitch et al 2010) CRP and Total WCC are systemic markers of inflammation that correlate with quality of life (Wilson et al 1998) Dyspnoea, FEV 1 and sputum production are the strongest factors of HRQL in stable bronchiectasis patients (Martinez-Garcia et al 2005) Improved quality of life scores on follow-up compared to time of referral (Ozerovitch et al 2004) Lorraine Ozerovitch 2012 - INGID

17. ↑HRQoL in patients with PID on IVIG – based on self-reported measures of physical functioning (Hedderick et al 1986) Patients reported on QoL, function and self-rated health status with IgG therapy (Gardulf et al 1993) Studies remark of medical and clinical measures of success measures (Gardulf et al 2006) Positive outcome in days off sick 6.1 compared to 23.3 (Eades-Perner et al 2007) Lorraine Ozerovitch 2012 - INGID

18. To assess QoL and functional ability in adult stable patients with Bx due to CVID, compared with historical controls with idiopathic bronchiectasis (Ozerovitch et al 2004) (Note: stable patients – no acute infective event requiring additional antibiotics in the preceding month) Lorraine Ozerovitch 2012 - INGID
