Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During the initial stage of an asthma attack, the resistance to airflow (R) is increased due to bronchoconstriction and inflammation of the airways. This increased resistance leads to difficulty in breathing and other symptoms of asthma. ΔP (pressure difference) may or may not be changed during the initial stage. The flow rate may be affected depending on the degree of R and ΔP changes, but it cannot be concluded that it remains unchanged during an asthma attack.
