OSA recommended only for patients with unexplained daytime sleepinessDr. Lisa Marie Cannon
The American College of Physicians (ACP) now recommends that sleep studies to look for obstructive sleep apnea should be reserved for patients with unexplained cases of daytime sleepiness, and that home testing will do for most patients.
Pneumonia is a medical condition where bacteria infect the lungs. This causes difficulty in breathing, and in some cases, severe chills, fever, and headaches. Pneumonia is a serious condition and medical professionals recommend immediate intervention once initial symptoms appear.
Diet can also affect a person’s respiratory health. Eating nutritious foods can improve how the body reacts to pollutants and allergens. It can also boost immunity, especially for those with preexisting respiratory conditions. Lisa M. Cannon, M.D., shares the top foods for better lung health.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention or the CDC recommends every individual, both sick and healthy, to wear a mask to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Many types of face coverings exist, and each one of them has different levels of effectiveness.

Millions of people snore when they sleep. Genetic factors could cause snoring, as well as one’s sleeping position or underlying health condition. According to sleep medicine specialist Lisa M. Cannon, M.D., the sound is caused by a heavy flow of air that blocks the breathing pathways. This can cause vibration in areas such as the soft palate, uvula, tongue, and others. The space in the airways diminishes as muscles in the neck and throat relax along with the rest of the body.
Millions of people suffer from sleep disorders, with insomnia being the most common. To remain fit and healthy, it’s also important to develop the right sleeping habits. For those who are having difficulties with getting good shuteye, Lisa M. Cannon, M.D., suggests simple breathing exercises. Here are some methods worth trying.
Study: Frequent Religious Service Attendance Linked To Reduced Death Risk In ...Dr. Lisa Marie Cannon
Much have been said about how faith and spirituality can lower stress levels and improve mental health. It makes sense considering that there are people who rely on faith at some point to get them through the hard times. Now, a new study adds to the growing body of evidence citing the connection between faith and mortality.
The cases of asthma attacks have increased dramatically over the past decade. In fact, the American Academy of Allergy Asthma and Immunology estimates that 300 million people worldwide suffer from asthma, a figure that leads to 250 deaths yearly.
Researchers from the University of Michigan found that obese patients had higher survival rates from sepsis than normal weight patients. A study of over 1,400 Medicare patients found heavier patients who got sepsis were more likely to survive. While many doctors believe obese patients will do worse with conditions like sepsis, this study found they actually have lower mortality and similar functional outcomes as normal weight patients. However, maintaining a normal weight still has many health benefits overall. Understanding how body weight impacts responses to critical illnesses can help improve care for sepsis and other conditions.
New study links cancer-related incidental pulmonary embolism to VTEDr. Lisa Marie Cannon
A recent article discussed the relationship between cancer and incidental pulmonary embolism (IPE). In the study, it was found that cancer patients who have this comorbid condition should ask their specialist for a long-term anticoagulant treatment. Analysts found that the risk of developing symptomatic recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) doubled among patients who did not receive an anticoagulant treatment
Sleepwalking, also known as somnambulism, affects around 1.5% of adults and 5% of children, where individuals engage in activities like walking or sitting while appearing awake but having no memory and occurring during slow-wave sleep. While usually harmless, there have been reports of dangerous behaviors resulting in injuries. There are no proven interventions to stop occurrences, but risks can be minimized through sufficient sleep, avoiding triggers, and creating a relaxing routine. Sleepwalking is often outgrown, but persistent cases should be checked by a sleep specialist.
It has long been established that cigarette smoking puts one at risk of many health problems. Practiced by more than one billion people in the world, tobacco smoking is a popular attachment in the society. Some smokers who desire to be fit and healthy incorporate exercise in their daily routine. How can smoking affect physical fitness?
Children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) exhibit hyperactivity, inattentiveness, or impulsivity.

Valley fever: Recognizing the causes and symptoms of coccidioidomycosisDr. Lisa Marie Cannon
Coccidioidomycosis or cocci is a fungal infection endemic in arid regions, such as the southwestern United States, northern Mexico, and parts of South and Central America.
Lung cancer causes more deaths than any other type of cancer. Timely screening can help doctors diagnose early the beginning stages of the disease, even before the appearance of symptoms.
Respiratory medicine still faces many challenges that are brought on by modern lifestyles. The population is aging, many individuals are still unable to quit smoking, and environmental factors, like air pollution, remain largely unsolved. With these, the global burden of respiratory disease has been predicted to continue increasing in the years to come.

The facial nerve, also known as cranial nerve VII, is one of the 12 cranial nerves originating from the brain. It's a mixed nerve, meaning it contains both sensory and motor fibres, and it plays a crucial role in controlling various facial muscles, as well as conveying sensory information from the taste buds on the anterior two-thirds of the tongue.
nursing management of patient with Empyema pptblessyjannu21

Empyema is a disease of respiratory system It is defines as the accumulation of thick, purulent fluid within the pleural space, often with fibrin development.
Empyema is also called pyothorax or purulent pleuritis.
It’s a condition in which pus gathers in the area between the lungs and the inner surface of the chest wall. This area is known as the pleural space.
Pus is a fluid that’s filled with immune cells, dead cells, and bacteria.
Pus in the pleural space can’t be coughed out. Instead, it needs to be drained by a needle or surgery.
Empyema usually develops after pneumonia, which is an infection of the lung tissue. it is mainly caused due in infectious micro-organisms. It can be treated with medications and other measures.

India Home Healthcare Market: Driving Forces and Disruptive Trends [2029]Kumar Satyam
According to the TechSci Research report titled "India Home Healthcare Market - By Region, Competition, Forecast and Opportunities, 2029," the India home healthcare market is anticipated to grow at an impressive rate during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to several factors, including the rising demand for managing health issues such as chronic diseases, post-operative care, elderly care, palliative care, and mental health. The growing preference for personalized healthcare among people is also a significant driver. Additionally, rapid advancements in science and technology, increasing healthcare costs, changes in food laws affecting label and product claims, a burgeoning aging population, and a rising interest in attaining wellness through diet are expected to escalate the growth of the India home healthcare market in the coming years.

This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is a summary of Pneumothorax:
Pneumothorax, also known as a collapsed lung, is a condition that occurs when air leaks into the space between the lung and chest wall. This air buildup puts pressure on the lung, preventing it from expanding fully when you breathe. A pneumothorax can cause a complete or partial collapse of the lung.
