   During general anesthesia, signs of bronchospasm include wheezing, high peak inspiratory pressures, increased intrinsic PEEP, decreased expiratory tidal volumes, and an upsloping capnograph (obstructive pattern).

4. Asthma - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asthma

   Asthma is clinically classified according to the frequency of symptoms, forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV 1), and peak expiratory flow rate. [11] Asthma may also be classified as atopic (extrinsic) or non-atopic (intrinsic), based on whether symptoms are precipitated by allergens (atopic) or not (non-atopic). [12] While asthma is ...

   Wheezes, describing a continuous musical sound on expiration or inspiration. A wheeze is the result of narrowed airways. Common causes include asthma and emphysema.
