Overview
Classification
- The clinical presentations of HP depend on:
- Frequency
- Length
- Exposure
- Duration of illness
- Due to a lot of variation in the the presentation HP has been classified according to various schemes.
- Hyperssensitivity pnoeumonitis may be classified into several subtypes based on:
- Classical classification:
- Acute
- Subacute
- Chronic
- Boyd classification:[1]
- Acute progressive
- Severe symptoms occur after exposure to antigen.
- Recurrent exposure leads to symptom progression.
- Clinically patients are pyrexial with bilateral crackles on chest auscultation.
- Patients may require hospitalization due to respiratory compromise.
- Acute intermittent nonprogressive
- Similar to acute progressive disease but less intense.
- Patients feel well in between episodes.
- Subsequent exposure leads to less severe symptoms.
- Patients are clinically stable in the long run.
- Pulmonary inflammatory response deteriorates with recurrent exposure to the antigen.[2]
- Chronic progressive disease
- Occurs after recurrent acute episodes or insidiously.[3]
- Patients are diagnosed in the late stages.
- Only clue for diagnosis is antigen exposure.
- Patients often present with permanent disability in the form of pulmonary fibrosis or respiratory failure.
- Disease is not reversed even after antigen exposure is avoided. [4]
- Subclinical disease
- Patients are immunological sensitized but are asymptomatic.
- Patients with recurrent exposure to antigens may convert to chronic form.
- Acute progressive
- Cormier classification:
- Active
- Residual
- Selman classification:
- Active nonprogressive and intermittent
- Acute progressive and intermittent
- Chronic
- Nonprogressive
- Progressive
- Classical classification:
