Inducible Laryngeal Obstruction (ILO) – eine dramatische Atemnot

Bei Patienten mit einer Inducible Laryngeal Obstruction (ILO) stellt der plötzliche Symptombeginn mit Stridor und Atemnot klinisch immer noch eine Herausforderung dar. Eine ausführliche Anamnese mit Ausschluss möglicher Ursachen und eine kontinuierliche flexible Laryngoskopie (CFE) gelten als Goldstandard zur Diagnostik. Gezielte Patientenaufklärung und Therapie mit Schwerpunkt funktionelle Atemtechnik führen oft zu einer deutlichen Verbesserung der Symptome.

Abstract

The sudden symptom onset with partially severe stridor or dyspnea in patients with induced laryngeal obstruction (ILO) still represents a diagnostic challenge in clinical practice. In addition to a targeted anamnesis with exclusion of possible causes, continuous flexible laryngoscopy (CFE) is considered as gold standard for the diagnosis of exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO). Disease specific patient education and speech therapy focusing on respiratory techniques often lead to a significant improvement in symptoms. Current explanatory models emphasize neurogenic, functional, and aerodynamic causes. Further studies on underlying causes may reveal which treatment methods are most effective.
