The respiratory system's primary function is to supply the blood with oxygen and remove carbon dioxide. It does this through breathing, which involves inhaling oxygen and exhaling carbon dioxide through the nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchial tubes, and lungs. Diseases of the respiratory system include asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia, and lung cancer. Antibiotics, antihistamines, and decongestants are common drugs used to treat respiratory infections.

Asthma Presentation by Dr. Arun Kumar
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways characterized by recurrent attacks of breathlessness and wheezing. During an asthma attack, the airways become inflamed and constricted due to bronchospasm and excess mucus production, making breathing difficult. Symptoms vary between individuals and can include coughing, wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. Asthma is typically treated through the use of long-term preventative medications and quick-relief medications to control symptoms and prevent attacks.
Oxygen therapy (the guyton and hall physiology)
Oxygen therapy provides oxygen to patients suffering from hypoxia, but prolonged use can cause toxic effects. If pure oxygen is used for over 8 hours, it can irritate the airways and cause coughing and congestion, while use for 24-48 hours may lead to lung damage like cyst formation and reduce the lungs' ability to fight bacteria. To prevent toxicity, intermittent hyperbaric oxygen with higher atmospheric pressure is recommended instead of continuous pure oxygen. Artificial respiration tools like resuscitators and iron lungs can also be used to deliver oxygen and support breathing and venous return.
Chronic Bronchitis
Chronic bronchitis is an inflammation of the bronchial tubes that causes excess mucus production. It develops after long-term irritation and damage to the airways from repeated exposure to lung irritants like cigarette smoke. The excess mucus clogs the airways and cannot be cleared by cilia. Smoking is the primary cause, and quitting smoking can help improve symptoms. Treatment focuses on reducing irritation and clearing mucus from the lungs.
Ch 7 presentation
This document provides an overview of common respiratory drug prescriptions, including decongestants, corticosteroids, and bronchodilators. Decongestants like Afrin are used to reduce nasal congestion for 12 hours but can cause dependency with prolonged use. Corticosteroids such as Nasonex are used to reduce inflammation and prevent allergy symptoms by reducing swelling in nasal passages. Bronchodilators including Serevent are used to prevent asthma attacks and COPD by relaxing airway muscles to improve breathing, but should not be used during an active asthma attack.
Respiratory Drugs
This document discusses four respiratory drugs: Hycodan which contains hydrocodone as an analgesic and antitussive, Afrin which contains oxymetazoline as a decongestant nasal spray, Cipro which contains ciprofloxacin as an antibiotic to treat respiratory infections and sometimes anthrax, and provides links to photos and references for more information.
systems
The respiratory system has four major functions: pulmonary ventilation, external respiration, transport of respiratory gases, and internal respiration. Pulmonary ventilation is breathing, external respiration is the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the lungs and blood, transport of respiratory gases distributes oxygen and collects carbon dioxide, and internal respiration is the exchange of gases between blood and tissues.
Sinus treatment in homeopathy
Sinusitis is an inflammation of the para nasal sinuses caused by infection, allergies, or irritation. Symptoms include facial pain, congestion, headaches, and loss of smell. Homeopathy offers an effective natural treatment for sinusitis by addressing both the infection and its symptoms holistically. Key homeopathic medicines like Silicea and Kali Bichrome treat sinusitis whether it is acute, chronic, or recurrent by matching the individual symptoms and characteristics of the patient.

Long Description:
If you have nasal congestion, facial pressure, cough, and thick nasal discharge, you may have rhinosinusitis, commonly known as sinusitis.
Your sinuses are hollow cavities in your cheek bones, around your eyes and behind your nose. They contain mucus, which helps to warm, moisturize and filter the air you breathe. When mucus usually prevents anything from drying out, infection can occur.
Acute sinusitis:
Acute sinusitis refers to the symptoms of sinusitis in less than four weeks. In most cases, the cold begins. Symptoms often go from one week to 10 days; But in some people, bacterial infection can develop.
Chronic sinusitis:
Chronic sinusitis, also called chronic rhinosinusitis, is often diagnosed when the symptoms are over 12 weeks, despite medical treatment.
People with allergic rhinitis or asthma are more likely to suffer from chronic sinusitis. When allergic rhinitis or asthma, the airways can become inflamed. Sinusitis infection, a fungus, nasal septum, nasal polyps or, in rare cases, an immune system deficiency.

Lungs Presentation
The lungs are located in the chest cavity and are responsible for respiration. They bring oxygen into the body through inhalation and remove carbon dioxide through exhalation. The lungs have several non-respiratory functions as well, such as filtering the blood and protecting the body from harmful substances. Common lung diseases include asthma, COPD, pulmonary fibrosis, infections, lung cancer, and pulmonary embolism. Taking care of lung health through a balanced diet, exercise, and preventing exposure to irritants can help keep the lungs functioning properly.
Respiratory system2
The respiratory system performs external respiration, the exchange of gases between the body and environment, and internal respiration, the transport of oxygen from the lungs to cells and removal of carbon dioxide. Air follows a pathway from the nose through the pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and bronchioles to the alveoli where gas exchange occurs. The respiratory system is susceptible to various diseases and disorders that can be diagnosed through examination, imaging and pulmonary function tests. Treatments include medications, surgery and mechanical devices.

Respiratory diseases
The document discusses various respiratory diseases including obstructive and restrictive diseases, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, pneumonia, bronchiectasis, and ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). It describes the characteristics, causes, clinical features, investigations, and management of these conditions. Key points include that COPD involves chronic bronchitis and emphysema, asthma is characterized by reversible airflow obstruction, and pneumonia can be community-acquired or hospital-acquired such as VAP in ventilated patients.
Cough
This document discusses the treatment of cough. It begins by classifying cough based on duration as acute (less than 3 weeks), subacute (3-8 weeks), or chronic (more than 3 weeks). For acute cough, the most common causes are viral infections, sinusitis, pertussis, COPD exacerbations, and allergies. Post-infectious cough can last 1-2 weeks. Chronic cough is often caused by postnasal drip, asthma, gastroesophageal reflux, or smoking-related chronic bronchitis. The document provides guidance on evaluating and treating cough based on duration and suspected etiology. Emphasis is placed on treating the underlying cause rather than just suppressing cough symptoms.
1. COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)
COPD is a progressive lung disease characterized by obstructed airflow during exhaling. It encompasses emphysema and chronic bronchitis. The main risk factors are smoking, air pollution, and occupational exposures. Patients present with cough, sputum production, and shortness of breath. Diagnosis is confirmed by spirometry showing reduced FEV1 and FEV1/FVC ratio. Treatment involves bronchodilators, antibiotics for exacerbations, oxygen therapy, and chest physiotherapy. Complications include pulmonary hypertension, respiratory failure, and cor pulmonale.
interstitial lung disease
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a broad category of over 100 lung disorders characterized by inflammation and scarring of the lungs. The pathophysiology involves injury to the lungs which causes inflammation, fibrosis, and thickening of the lung tissue. This replaces normal lung structures and impairs gas exchange. Symptoms include breathing difficulties and cough. Diagnosis involves imaging, pulmonary function tests, and sometimes lung biopsy. Treatment depends on the underlying cause but may include medications, oxygen therapy, and sometimes lung transplantation. Prognosis depends on the specific ILD diagnosis.
BRONCHIAL ASTHMA.pptx
Bronchial asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways characterized by airflow obstruction, bronchial hyperactivity, and mucus production. It affects 334 million people worldwide and causes 250,000 deaths per year. The disease has genetic and environmental causes and can be triggered by factors like dust, pollen, smoke, and exercise. It is diagnosed based on symptoms, medical history, and pulmonary function tests. Treatment involves bronchodilators, corticosteroids, and other drugs to relieve symptoms and reduce inflammation.

Function of the respiratory system
- 1. Function of the Respiratory System S U P P LY The primary function of the respiratory system is to supply the blood with oxygen in order for the blood to deliver oxygen to all parts of the body
- 2. Why is the Respiratory System function important to all humans? • Because the respiratory system is the breathing system. When we breathe, we inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. This exchange of gases is the respiratory system's means of getting oxygen to the blood. To ensure that the body receives enough oxygen and to expel waste carbon dioxide.
- 3. The Respiratory System Organs • Nasal Cavity • Pharynx • Larynx • Trachea • Bronchial tubes • Lungs
- 4. Diseases Associated with the Respiratory System • Croup • Atelectasis • Diphtheria • (COPD) • Pertussis • (CF) • Asthma • Emphysema • Bronchiectasis • (SIDS) • Bronchogenic • (TB) carcinoma • (ARDS) • Asbestosis
- 5. Drugs to treat Respiratory Systems Infections • Antibiotic Generic and Brand Names – Kills bacteria causing - ampicillin respiratory infections. - amoxicillin - Amoxil - ciprofloxacin - Cipro
- 6. Drugs to treat Respiratory Systems Infections • Antihistamine • Fexofenadine – Blocks the effects of • Allegra histamine that has been released by the body • Ioratadine during an allergy attack. • Claritan • Diphenhydramine • Benadryl
- 7. Drugs to treat Respiratory System Infections • Decongestant • oxymetazoline – Reduces stuffiness and • Afrin congestion throughout the respiratory system • Dristan • Sinex • pseudoephedrine • Drixoral • Sudafed
