Dyspnea Microchapters

Patient Information

Overview

Pathophysiology

Causes

Differentiating Dyspnea from other Diseases

Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1]

Differential Diagnosis

  • Air hunger - the sensation of an urgent need to breathe, sensation that you cannot take in a full breath
  • Tachypnea - breathing rapidly
  • Bradypnea - breathing slowly
  • Eupnea - normal unlabored breathing
  • Orthopnea - dyspnea that occurs with lying flat
  • Trepopnea - an abnormal awareness of one's own breathing that is seen in one lateral position but not in the other
  • Paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea - sudden, severe shortness of breath at night that awakens a person from sleep, often with coughing and wheezing.
