Asthma is a disease affecting the airways that carry air to and from your lungs. People who suffer from this chronic condition (long-lasting or recurrent) are said to be asthmatic. The inside walls of an asthmatic's airways are swollen or inflamed.
To diagnose a severe asthma attack as status asthmaticus, your doctor will note physical findings such as your consciousness, fatigue, and the use of accessory muscles of breathing. Your doctor will note your respiration rate, wheezing during both inhalation and exhalation, and your pulse rate.
