Patient Data
A 35-year-old female with a childhood history of asthma, which was previously exercise-induced, now presents with progressively worsening shortness of breath. Physical exam reveals subtle basal crackles and diminished air entry, and a sleep study is pending. Considering her history and current findings, what does the patient data most strongly suggest?
The combination of a longstanding history of asthma with new physical findings such as basal crackles and reduced air entry suggests the possibility of airway remodeling due to chronic inflammation. This could result in irreversible changes affecting her respiratory function.
