Effort Dyspnea, if it is not Asthma? An Omega Epiglottis Case Report
Abstract
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways which is characterized by recurrent episodes of airway
obstruction, associated with airway hyper responsiveness that leads to symptoms of dyspnea, wheezing, chest
tightness, and/or coughing. Omega shaped epiglottis is a type of laryngomalacia which is a result of curling on itself
of the epiglottis because of shortened aryepiglottic folds.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a case report, done in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.
