will a person with this wake up when he cant breath? 80.178.195.85 19:31, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Often, he/she will. If you don't wake up, then it really can't be considered a symptom. InvictaHOG 21:03, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think that the fluid enters the interstital spaces of the lungs preventing filling of the aveoli rather than enetering the aveoli directly, hence why it resolves quickly, getting fluid out of the aveoli would be more difficult and take a greater time

It's not call "cardiac asthma". Because of, this symptom is the wheezing sound from congestive heart failure. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.28.181.200 (talk) 14:45, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have not heard of the term cardiac asthma, however PND is something I hear all the time. Shouldn't this article be titled Paroxysmal Nocturnal Dyspnea instead?--Bastilleday uky (talk) 07:32, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to have to agree here, I have NEVER heard of the term "cardiac asthma" and it is certainly not the more common name for the symptom as noted in the edit history. Unless there is an objection, I will be changing the main title back to PND within the next few weeks. Boognish (talk) 19:29, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Upon further reading, cardiac asthma is simply a symptom that can be related to heart failure. Cardiac asthma has nothing at all to do with PND. Mayo Clinic Info For Cardiac Asthma This has been a grossly misleading article for years so this weekend when I have time, I will be moving this article back to Paroxysmal Nocturnal Dyspnea and delete Cardiac Asthma including it's link to PND.

Cardiac asthma → Paroxysmal Nocturnal Dyspnea —

Cardiac asthma is simply a symptom that can be related to heart failure, cardiac asthma has nothing to do with PND. Cited on talk page. 21:17, 7 March 2011 (UTC)Boognish (talk)
Merge both to the article on Dyspnea. There do not seem to be enough sources for an article. --Bejnar (talk) 23:49, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The page is simply incorrect and needs to be corrected and merged with congestive heart failure as that is what this is. A symptoms of CHF.Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 08:12, 3 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Emphasis on differentiating Cardiac Asthma from PND?

Should future edits have some form of emphasis on differentiating alternate respiratory related symptoms of CHF contained within this article? Jrb2022 (talk) 20:10, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Work Plan for Editing Article

My work plan for editing article is as follows. Currently the article is not divided by subsections and headings. I plan to expand the article to include a lead, etiology/characteristic, symptoms, and management sections, as well as update the article to include more direct and concrete explanations of this disease state and its affiliation with congestive heart disease. I believe separating will help with article approachability and readability. I also plan to incorporate additional resources to help elucidate the pathological/physiological mechanisms at work in the presentation. Please provide any feedback that could assist in helping improve the quality of this article.Jrb2022 (talk) 20:16, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
