Asthma awareness asthma management in
This document provides an overview of asthma awareness and management in the workplace. It discusses what asthma is, common symptoms, medications used to treat it including relievers and preventers, how to recognize and treat an asthma attack using the 4 steps of Asthma First Aid, exercise-induced asthma, relevant legislation, and guidelines for maintaining an Asthma Friendly Workplace. The overall goal is to educate attendees on asthma basics and empower them to assist anyone experiencing an asthma attack according to approved first aid procedures.
OTC Medications - Cough
- Coughing is a protective reflex action that aims to clear irritants from the airway. Most coughs are caused by viral upper respiratory tract infections and will improve on their own within a few days.
- Coughs can be classified as productive (with sputum) or unproductive (dry). Productive coughs may indicate bacterial infection. Coughs lasting over 2 weeks should be referred to a doctor.
- Treatment depends on cough type but includes suppressants for dry coughs and expectorants for productive coughs. Demulcents soothe the throat. While evidence for efficacy is limited, cough remedies provide relief for many through placebo effect.
Bronchial asthma with homeopathic management
This document presents a case study of an 18-year-old female student named Mariya D'Souza suffering from severe asthma. Her symptoms include breathlessness that is worsened by cold drinks, cold water, drafts of air, monsoon weather, and getting wet. She has a history of anxiety, fear of death, restlessness, and anger issues. The case analysis identifies constitutional traits like a heavy birth weight, intolerance of contradictions, premarital sexual activity, and attraction to others. She was initially prescribed arsenic album 200 based on her acute totality, and later calcarea flour 200 based on her constitutional totality. Follow ups showed improvement in her symptoms with no new complaints.
Upper Respiratory Infection
Upper respiratory infections (URIs), commonly known as the common cold, are caused by viruses that infect the nasal passages and throat. Symptoms include nasal congestion, sore throat, cough, and fever. While colds are usually self-limiting, antibiotics are not effective as they target bacteria rather than viruses. The document provides guidance on evaluating patients with colds, explaining the viral nature of the illness, and recommending symptomatic treatments like decongestants, antihistamines, and cough suppressants. It advises against unnecessary antibiotics or diagnostic testing for uncomplicated cases.
Asthma presentation 2
This document discusses asthma, including that it is a chronic lung condition characterized by bronchiole constriction and inflammation that causes variable symptoms. Symptoms include coughing, wheezing, chest tightness and shortness of breath. Asthma is managed using medications and by avoiding triggers when possible, though exercise should not be avoided. Medications include rescue inhalers for quick symptom relief and controller medications like corticosteroids to reduce inflammation and prevent symptoms. Proper asthma management requires monitoring symptoms and lung function.

Asthma
Asthma is a chronic disease that affects your airways. Your
airways are tubes that carry air in and out of your lungs. If you have asthma,
the inside walls of your airways become sore and swollen. That makes them very
sensitive, and they may react strongly to things that you are allergic to
or find irritating. When your airways react, they get narrower and your lungs
get less air. This can cause wheezing, coughing, chest tightness and trouble
breathing, especially early in the morning or at night.When your asthma symptoms become worse than usual, it's called
an asthma attack. In a severe asthma attack, the airways can close so much that
your vital organs do not get enough oxygen. People can die from severe asthma
attacks.
Asthma is treated with two kinds of medicines: quick-relief
medicines to stop asthma symptoms and long-term control medicines to prevent
symptoms.
Acute Respiratory Illness(Ari)
1. Acute respiratory illness (ARI) is a major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide, especially in young children under 5 years old. Pneumonia accounts for 90% of ARI deaths and is commonly caused by bacteria.
2. Developing countries have high rates of ARI due to factors like malnutrition, indoor smoke pollution, and overcrowding. Bangladesh, India, Indonesia and Nepal account for 40% of global ARI mortality.
3. Clinical assessment of children with suspected ARI involves checking for symptoms like fast breathing and chest indrawing. Illnesses are classified as very severe, severe pneumonia, pneumonia, or no pneumonia to determine appropriate treatment.
Asthma
This document discusses facts and myths about asthma. It begins by stating that asthma is not "all in the mind" but emotional triggers can cause flare-ups. It also notes that while asthma symptoms may become inactive in teenage years for some children, it cannot be outgrown. The document emphasizes that asthma cannot be cured but can be controlled with medical treatment and underscores the seriousness of the condition. It confirms several triggers of asthma attacks and notes that medications used to treat asthma are not habit-forming or addictive. Overall, the document provides information to distinguish true and false statements about the nature, causes, and treatment of asthma.
Cold and flu, its diagnosis and treatment for Pharmacist
The document discusses common cold symptoms and treatment options. It provides details on collecting patient information such as age, duration of symptoms, and current medications. Common cold symptoms include runny nose, sneezing, cough, headaches, and sore throat. Fever is not usually present with a cold. Over-the-counter treatments discussed include decongestants, antihistamines, saline drops, steam inhalations, and when to refer to a doctor. The document cautions about potential drug interactions and side effects of various treatments.
Asthma Presentation 2
- Asthma is a chronic lung condition that affects over 3 million Canadians, with no cure but it can be managed. It involves inflammation and narrowing of the airways.
- Symptoms include coughing, shortness of breath, wheezing and chest tightness and are caused by bronchioconstriction in response to triggers.
- Asthma is treated through medications like rescue inhalers for sudden symptoms and controller medications taken daily to prevent symptoms, as well as avoiding triggers like allergens, infections and exercise. Proper management is key to living normally with asthma.
HAAD of Asthma in Children
The document provides guidelines for physicians on diagnosing and managing childhood asthma in children aged 0-11. It was developed by the Health Authority of Abu Dhabi to help primary care physicians successfully treat asthma. The guidelines cover diagnosing asthma, assessing control, developing treatment plans, and managing acute exacerbations. The goals are to achieve control of symptoms and prevent exacerbations through environmental control, education, and medication adherence. Treatment involves a stepwise approach starting with reliever medications and adding controller medications as needed.
What is asthma how can asthma be prevented 1
Homeopathy can effectively treat asthma by addressing the underlying sensitivity and relieving both acute and chronic symptoms. It provides a safe, permanent cure without side effects, especially for children. Asthma causes wheezing, coughing, chest tightness and shortness of breath during attacks, which are often triggered by allergens, irritants, infections or stress. While lifestyle changes and avoiding triggers can help control asthma, homeopathic treatment works by reducing hypersensitivity and managing both acute flare-ups and long-term management.
Asthma
This document provides information on the diagnosis and management of asthma. It defines asthma as a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways characterized by reversible airway narrowing and obstruction. The pathophysiology involves airway inflammation, wall thickening, mucus hypersecretion, and bronchial smooth muscle contraction in response to stimuli. Differential diagnoses include other lung diseases, infections, and restrictive lung disorders. Treatment involves inhaled bronchodilators and corticosteroids. Management is stepped up or down based on asthma control and severity.
Bronchitis
Bronchitis is inflammation of the bronchial tubes caused by viruses, bacteria, or other irritants. It can be acute, lasting a few weeks after a cold or flu, or chronic, characterized by a persistent cough for at least three months per year over two years. Risk factors include smoking, secondhand smoke, air pollution, age, and weak immune system. Symptoms include cough, mucus production, shortness of breath, wheezing and fatigue. Diagnosis involves exams, tests, and imaging. Treatment focuses on antibiotics for bacteria, cough medicine, bronchodilators, and lifestyle changes.

Bronchial asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by airflow obstruction, airway hyperresponsiveness, and inflammation. The signs and symptoms include wheezing, cough, shortness of breath, and chest tightness. Diagnosis involves pulmonary function tests and demonstrating bronchodilator response. Treatment involves a stepwise approach using reliever medications for acute symptoms and controller medications like inhaled corticosteroids to reduce inflammation. Education, environmental control, pharmacologic treatment, and proper inhaler technique are important for long-term asthma management and control.
First aid
This document provides information on first aid measures and principles. It defines first aid as initial assistance given to stabilize a victim before emergency help arrives. The aims of first aid are to preserve life, prevent worsening of conditions, and promote recovery. Key principles include assessing airway, breathing, circulation, and treating shock or other injuries while protecting from further harm. Vital signs like pulse, temperature, respiration are also discussed along with levels of consciousness and blood pressure measurements.
Pediatric acute asthma management update
This document provides definitions and classifications for acute asthma attacks and outlines treatment protocols based on severity. It defines mild, moderate, and severe acute asthma and describes recommended treatments including bronchodilators, steroids, magnesium sulfate, and ventilation. It also discusses treatments for status asthmaticus, including various bronchodilators, steroids, and ventilation strategies.
Bronchiolitis in children
Bronchiolitis is a common viral infection that affects infants under 2 years old, usually caused by RSV. It involves inflammation in the small airways of the lungs. Symptoms include cough, wheezing, difficulty breathing, and low oxygen levels. Infants may require admission if their oxygen levels drop below 94%, respiratory rate is over 70, or they have trouble feeding. Treatment focuses on supportive care like oxygen, feeding support, and nebulized saline. Most infants recover in 4-5 days but cough can last 2-4 weeks.
Top 4 homeopathic medicines for asthma
One of the great ways to treat your ASTHMA or breathing difficulties is by using homoeopathy treatment and medicines. The appropriate cure solution can avert an acute stage, while constant treatment will continue to work to clear the condition completely.
Gina - global initiative against asthma
The document describes the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) program, which aims to increase awareness of asthma as a global health problem and provide evidence-based guidelines for diagnosis and management. GINA develops global strategy documents and provides resources to help implement asthma guidelines. The strategy follows a stepwise treatment approach based on asthma control levels to achieve treatment goals of control and prevention of exacerbations using inhaled corticosteroids and other controllers.
Asthma Project
Asthma is a chronic condition that affects the airways in the lungs. When asthma occurs, the airways become inflamed and swollen, making them very sensitive and causing the muscles around the airways to tighten. This causes symptoms like wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and trouble breathing. There are different levels of asthma severity ranging from mild to severe based on symptoms. Medications can help control asthma symptoms and prevent attacks. It is important for dental patients with asthma to take their medications as prescribed and for dental staff to take steps to minimize triggers.
ASTHMA GINA CLASSIFICATION
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways that causes recurring episodes of wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness and coughing. It affects people of all ages and its prevalence is increasing worldwide. Asthma can be diagnosed based on symptoms and medical history and confirmed through lung function tests. Effective asthma management requires a partnership between the patient and doctor to control symptoms, identify and reduce risk factors, treat exacerbations, and monitor the condition.

Bronchitis
Bronchitis is an inflammation of the air passages within the lungs that can be caused by viral or bacterial infections, irritants like dust, or cold weather. There are two main types - acute bronchitis typically lasts up to two weeks while chronic bronchitis can persist for months or years. Common symptoms include cough, wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath as the inflammation affects the lungs. Preventive measures include getting vaccinated against influenza and practicing good hand hygiene.
Introduction of bronchitis
Bronchitis is an inflammation of the air passages between the nose and lungs. Acute bronchitis usually follows a viral infection like a cold and resolves within two weeks, while chronic bronchitis presents symptoms for at least three months per year for two consecutive years, often caused by smoking. Treatment for acute bronchitis focuses on air flow optimization using expectorants, bronchodilators, and sometimes antibiotics or corticosteroids. Treatment for chronic bronchitis emphasizes smoking cessation and uses long-acting bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroids to manage symptoms.

Acute and Chronic Bronchitis and Homeopathy treatment
Bronchitis is inflammation of the bronchi (large and medium-sized airways) of the lungs. Symptoms include coughing up mucus, wheezing, shortness of breath, and chest discomfort.
Bronchitis
Acute bronchitis (brahn-KITE-uss), or chest cold, is a condition that occurs when the bronchial (BRAHN-kee-uhl) tubes in the lungs become inflamed. The bronchial tubes swell and produce mucus, which causes a person to cough. This often occurs after an upper respiratory infection like a cold. Most symptoms of acute bronchitis (chest pain, shortness of breath, etc.) last for up to 2 weeks, but the cough can last for up to 8 weeks in some people.
bronchitis (pathology and treatment)by srota dawn
this presentation contains a detailed description about bronchitis ,its types, pathology,causes, treatment etc.
Bronchitis
Bronchitis is an inflammation of the bronchial tubes caused by viruses or bacteria. It can be acute, lasting a few weeks, or chronic, lasting over 3 months per year. Chronic bronchitis is often caused by long-term exposure to irritants like cigarette smoke. Symptoms include cough, wheezing, fever, and difficulty breathing. Diagnosis involves examining sputum and chest x-rays. Treatment focuses on rest, fluids, breathing moist air, cough suppressants, and antibiotics for bacterial infections. Chronic bronchitis may also be treated with bronchodilators and mucolytics to thin mucus and open airways.
Bronchitis
Bronchitis is inflammation of the bronchial tubes caused by viruses, bacteria, or other irritants. It can be acute, lasting a few weeks, or chronic, characterized by a long-term productive cough. Symptoms include cough, mucus production, shortness of breath, wheezing, and chest discomfort. Treatment depends on the cause but may include antibiotics, cough medicine, bronchodilators, mucolytics, or steroids. Lifestyle changes like quitting smoking and avoiding pollution can help prevent bronchitis.
Chronic bronchitis
Chronic bronchitis is defined as a persistent cough with mucus production for at least three months in a year for two consecutive years. It is primarily caused by long-term irritation and inflammation of the airways due to cigarette smoke or other inhaled chemicals. Chronic bronchitis can progress to more severe lung diseases like COPD or lung cancer and, if left untreated, may result in heart failure or respiratory infections. The pathology involves damage to the airways, thickening of the mucus membranes, and increased mucus production.
Bronchitis
Bronchitis is inflammation of the bronchi. Acute bronchitis causes cough and mucus production, often during a cold or flu. Chronic bronchitis is long-term cough and mucus production, usually caused by smoking or pollution. Acute bronchitis is usually viral but can be bacterial, while chronic bronchitis is caused by long-term airway irritation. Symptoms include cough, fatigue, and sore throat.
Bronchitis ppt
Bronchitis is an inflammation of the bronchial tubes that carry air to and from the lungs. There are two main types: acute and chronic. Risk factors include smoking, air pollution, and respiratory infections. Symptoms include cough, wheezing, shortness of breath, and mucus production. Homeopathy can help relieve cough, control recurring infections, improve immunity, reduce severity and duration of bronchitis, and help both allergic and infectious cases. Specific homeopathic remedies target productive coughing, lower recurrence risk, boost immunity, clear infections, reduce inflammation and make breathing easier. The document encourages those suffering from bronchitis to seek homeopathic treatment.

Physical Examination Presentation prepared by AAMBC Student
The document discusses various aspects of performing a physical examination, including:
1. Preparing patients by escorting them, taking medical history, and measuring vital signs.
2. Abdominal examinations are peculiar in that palpation and percussion can alter bowel sounds, so auscultation is done before those steps.
3. For patients with chronic cough, questions should determine timing/triggers of cough and physical exam techniques like auscultation can help reach a diagnosis.
chest infection (clinical case)2
Pneumonia is an infection of the lungs that can be caused by viruses, bacteria, or fungi. It causes inflammation in the small air sacs of the lungs called alveoli, making breathing difficult. Common symptoms include cough, fever, chills, and difficulty breathing. Risk factors include old age, smoking, medical conditions weakening the immune system. Diagnosis involves physical exam, chest x-rays, and tests of sputum or blood. Treatment depends on the cause but often involves antibiotics, rest, and following up until fully recovered. Vaccines can help prevent bacterial types of pneumonia.
Mycoplasma pneumonia
Mycoplasma pneumonia is caused by contact with the sneezing and coughing of infected individuals. It commonly affects people under 40 and those living in crowded areas. Symptoms include chest pain, cough, fever and headache and can range from mild to severe. Diagnosis involves exams, blood tests, imaging and sputum cultures. Treatment involves antibiotics taken orally or intravenously for 2 weeks or more to completion. Complications can include ear infections, anemia or severe pneumonia. Prevention focuses on hand washing, avoiding crowds when immune is weak, not smoking, getting flu and pneumonia vaccines.
Smoking Cessation
The document discusses COPD, its causes and symptoms. COPD is a lung disease that makes it difficult to breathe by damaging the airways and air sacs in the lungs. The most common cause of COPD is cigarette smoking. Smoking exposes the lungs to over 600 chemicals, many of which are linked to cancer and other chronic diseases. Quitting smoking provides significant health benefits, such as improved lung function and reduced cancer risks within a few years of stopping. The document reviews methods and resources to help patients quit smoking and better manage COPD.
Approach patient with cough
This document provides an overview of cough, including its definition, mechanism, causes, management, and classification. It begins by defining cough and describing its four step mechanism: 1) inspiratory gasp, 2) valsalva maneuver, 3) expiratory blast, and 4) post-tussive inspiration. Cough can be triggered by stimuli in various structures in the lungs, airways, and chest. Acute cough is classified as lasting less than 3 weeks, sub-acute 3-8 weeks, and chronic over 8 weeks. Common causes of chronic cough include lung diseases like asthma, GERD, post-nasal drip, and medications like ACE inhibitors. Investigation of chronic cough involves ruling out structural
Sore throat, diagnosis and management for Pharmacist
This document provides guidance for pharmacists on diagnosing and treating sore throats. It outlines that most sore throats are viral and self-limiting, though some information should be collected from patients to identify possible bacterial infections or conditions requiring referral. Treatment typically involves over-the-counter mouthwashes, sprays, lozenges and pastilles containing antiseptics, anti-inflammatories or local anesthetics. Referral is recommended if symptoms persist after 5 days or if hoarseness, difficulty swallowing or certain throat appearances are present.

Best Cough Syrup in India for Kids, Adults, & Pregnancy.pdf
Selecting the ideal cough syrup is always challenging for everyone.
Anyone has a cough, and it is very common to have a cough and cold as the weather changes.
Although, all the coughs are not the same. So, it is evident that even cough syrups are not the same.
This post will review the best cough syrup for kids, adults, & pregnancy.
As we know, cough is a common symptom of lung infection. You need to understand the cause of the cough.
If your cough is persisting more than 8 weeks, you should not treat the cough yourself. It may be a lung infection or chronic lung disease. You must consult your doctor.
Your doctor may assess your cough based on intensity, severity, frequency, and sensitivity.
Suppose your cough is bothering you in daily routine activity or if it is an acute cough. In that case, you can take symptomatic relief or over-the-counter (OTC) cough and cold medications.
There are two types of cough syrups in the market –
-Expectorant, and
-Antitussives
These kinds of cough syrups are usually available in a combination of antihistaminic drugs, nasal decongestants, or bronchodilators like –
-Expectorant + bronchodilator
-Expectorant + antihistaminic drug
-Antitussives + antihistaminic drug
-Antitussives + antihistaminic drug + nasal decongestant
You need to understand – which type of cough do you have? We usually need clarification while selecting the best cough syrup.
If you have a productive cough, you should choose expectorant cough syrup, while for dry cough, you need to take antitussive cough syrup.
Choosing the best cough syrup for kids is also challenging because there are safety concerns.
As per FDA, if your child has a cough due to a cold or upper respiratory cough infection, it does not need treatment.
Still, if you want to give cough syrup to your children, then you may go with OTC medicines but don’t give any cough syrup to children under 2 years.
Here, I am reviewing the safest and best cough syrup for kids.
Diphenhydramine and dexchlorpheniramine are the safest and best cough relief medicine for pregnant women.
It would be best to consult your doctor before taking any cough syrup, especially in kids and pregnancy.
Pharyngitis
Pharyngitis, commonly known as a sore throat, is inflammation of the pharynx usually caused by viral infections like the common cold. Symptoms include soreness, difficulty swallowing, and fever. While most cases are viral and self-limiting, bacterial infections like strep throat require antibiotics. Proper diagnosis involves examination of the throat and potential testing. Treatment focuses on relieving symptoms for viral cases and antibiotics for bacterial infections. Maintaining good hygiene can help prevent pharyngitis.

The second dialogue involves a patient experiencing frequent thirst, tiredness and unexplained weight loss, which could indicate diabetes. Tests are ordered to confirm. The third dialogue is about back pain experienced after long periods of sitting. The doctor recommends tests and advises regular breaks from sitting and light stretching exercises.
Diphtheria
Diphtheria is a serious bacterial infection of the throat and respiratory system caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae. Symptoms include sore throat, fever, swollen glands, and a gray membrane in the throat that can cause breathing difficulties. Without treatment, diphtheria can damage the heart, kidneys and nervous system, and it is fatal in 10% of cases. Today, diphtheria is rare in developed countries due to widespread vaccination programs. Vaccination is the most effective way to prevent diphtheria.

There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
