2. Diseases Related to
Respiratory System and
Circulatory System

3. Respiratory system
• Infectious diseases of the respiratory tract
• Common cold
• Influenza
• Pneumonia
• Tuberculosis
• Respiratory disorders
• Asthma
• Bronchitis
• Emphysema
• COPD
• Lung cancer

4. Infectious diseases of the respiratory tract
• Common cold
• The common cold is a viral infection of
your nose and throat (upper respiratory
tract). It's usually harmless. Many types
of viruses can cause a common cold
• Most people recover from a common
cold in a week or 10 days. Symptoms
might last longer in people who smoke.
Generally, you don't need medical
attention for a common cold. However, if
symptoms don't improve or if they get
worse, see your doctor.
• rhinovirus

5. Infectious diseases of the respiratory tract
• Influenza
• Influenza is a viral infection that attacks
your respiratory system — your nose,
throat and lungs. Influenza is commonly
called the flu, but it's not the same as
stomach "flu" viruses that cause
diarrhea and vomiting.
• Influenza viruses travel through the air in
droplets when someone with the
infection coughs, sneezes or talks.

6. Infectious diseases of the respiratory tract
• Tuberculosis
• Tuberculosis (TB) is a potentially serious
infectious disease that mainly affects the
lungs. The bacteria that cause
tuberculosis are spread from person to
person through tiny droplets released
into the air via coughs and sneezes.
• Although tuberculosis is contagious, it's
not easy to catch. You're much more
likely to get tuberculosis from someone
you live or work with than from a
stranger.
• HIV and TB
• Drug – resistant TB

7. Infectious diseases of the respiratory tract
• Pneumonia
• Pneumonia is an infection that inflames
the air sacs in one or both lungs. The air
sacs may fill with fluid or pus (purulent
material), causing cough with phlegm or
pus, fever, chills, and difficulty breathing.
A variety of organisms, including
bacteria, viruses and fungi, can cause
pneumonia.

8. Respiratory diseases
• Asthma
• Asthma is a condition in which your
airways narrow and swell and may
produce extra mucus. This can make
breathing difficult and trigger coughing,
a whistling sound (wheezing) when you
breathe out and shortness of breath.

9. Respiratory diseases
• Bronchitis
• Bronchitis is an inflammation of the
lining of your bronchial tubes, which
carry air to and from your lungs. People
who have bronchitis often cough up
thickened mucus, which can be
discolored. Bronchitis may be either
acute or chronic.
• The most common cause of chronic
bronchitis is cigarette smoking. Air
pollution and dust or toxic gases in the
environment or workplace also can
contribute to the condition.

10. Respiratory diseases
• Emphysema
• Emphysema is a lung condition that
causes shortness of breath. In people
with emphysema, the air sacs in the
lungs (alveoli) are damaged. Over time,
the inner walls of the air sacs weaken
and rupture — creating larger air spaces
instead of many small ones. This reduces
the surface area of the lungs and, in
turn, the amount of oxygen that reaches
your bloodstream.

11. Circulatory system
• Disorders of the blood vessels
• Atherosclerosis
• stroke
• Diseases of the heart
• Coronary heart disease
• Hypertension
• Disorders of the blood
• Haemophilia
• Anaemia
• leukaemia

12. Disorders of the Blood vessels
• Emphysema
• Atherosclerosis
• Atherosclerosis is the buildup of fats,
cholesterol and other substances in and
on your artery walls. This buildup is
called plaque. The plaque can cause your
arteries to narrow, blocking blood flow.
The plaque can also burst, leading to a
blood clot.
• atherosclerosis is often considered a
heart problem, it can affect arteries
anywhere in your body. Atherosclerosis
can be treated. Healthy lifestyle habits
can help prevent atherosclerosis.

13. Disorders of the Blood vessels
• Emphysema
• Stroke
• A stroke occurs when the blood supply
to part of your brain is interrupted or
reduced, preventing brain tissue from
getting oxygen and nutrients. Brain cells
begin to die in minutes.
• Trouble speaking and understanding
what others are saying
• Paralysis or numbness of the face, arm
or leg
• Problems seeing in one or both eyes.
• Headache.
• Trouble walking.

14. Diseases of the Heart
• Emphysema
• Coronary heart disease
• Hypertension

15. Disorders of the blood
• Emphysema
• Hemophilia
• Hemophilia is a rare disorder in which
your blood doesn't clot normally
because it lacks sufficient blood-
clotting proteins (clotting factors). If
you have hemophilia, you may bleed
for a longer time after an injury than
you would if your blood clotted
normally.

16. Disorders of the blood
• Emphysema
• Anemia
• Anemia is a condition in which you lack
enough healthy red blood cells to carry
adequate oxygen to your body's
tissues. Having anemia can make you
feel tired and weak.
• There are many forms of anemia, each
with its own cause. Anemia can be
temporary or long term, and it can
range from mild to severe.

17. Disorders of the blood
• Emphysema
• Leukemia
• Leukemia is cancer of the body's
blood-forming tissues, including the
bone marrow and the lymphatic
system.
• Leukemia usually involves the white
blood cells. Your white blood cells are
potent infection fighters — they
normally grow and divide in an orderly
way, as your body needs them. But in
people with leukemia, the bone
marrow produces an excessive amount
of abnormal white blood cells, which
don't function properly.

18. Generalization:
• The leading causes of death around the
world are diseases affecting the
respiratory and circulatory systems.
However, they can be prevented simply
by have a lifestyle that promotes
wellness. Circulatory and respiratory
diseases begin to develop with
unhealthy living. Symptoms of these
illnesses must not be neglected and
appropriate cure must be given
immediately. Do the next activity to
further broaden your learning.

19. Performance task:
• do the activity 3 of the lesson 1.3 “Prevention is better than cure.”
• Create a poster illustrating how diseases of circulatory and respiratory
system are detected, prevented and treated
• Create a poster showing various ways of preventing diseases that affect the
respiratory and circulatory systems. You must also show the importance of keeping
our bodies healthy and free from illnesses.
