This document discusses hemoptysis (coughing up blood). It defines hemoptysis and outlines its severity based on blood loss. The most common causes are tuberculosis, bronchiectasis, and lung cancers. A diagnostic evaluation involves history, physical exam, chest imaging like x-ray and CT, and bronchoscopy. Management depends on the severity, ranging from watchful waiting for mild cases to airway stabilization, bronchial artery embolization, and surgery for massive hemoptysis when more conservative options have failed. Endoscopic techniques like laser, electrocautery and hemostatic agents can help control bleeding locally.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

3. Definition
• Expectoration of blood ,the source of bleeding being below
the vocal cords, either from tracheobronchial tree or lungs
• It represents 6.8% of chest clinic visits & 11% of thoracic
surgical admissions
4. SEVERITY
Based on amount of blood lost during episode
• MILD <5cc in 24 hrs
• MODERATE 5-600cc in 24 hrs
• MASSIVE >600cc in 24 hrs
-Requires blood transfusion
-Hemodynamically unstable
5. • Mortality: 7- 30%( in non massive hemoptysis)
80% (in massive)
• Origin: in 90 % cases arises from bronchial arteries
5% cases from pulmonary arteries
5% cases from non bronchial systemic arteries
8. Pathogenesis
TUBERCULOSIS: Bleeding may result from
a)Direct extension of infection into bronchial & pulmonary
arterioles
b)Bronchiectasis (post tubercular)
c)Rasmussen’s aneurysm(neovascularisation in large
parenchymal cavities d/t secondary infection with
mycetomas
d)Pressure of a calcified hilar lymph node on a bronchus
9. • BRONCHIECTASIS: bronchial arteries become enlarged,
tortuous ,ectatic & form extensive collateral vessels which
are prone to spontaneous rupture
• PULMONARY MALIGNANCIES:
may result in endobronchial involvement ,mucosal tumor
invasion ,tumor necrosis, secondary infection caused by
obstructing tumor
10. • MYCETOMAS: typically aspergillus may secondarily infect
cavitary lung disease,they cause bronchial artery dilatation
& invade the vascular intima
• LUNG ABSCESS: necrotising inflammation of lung
parenchyma eroding bronchial & pulmonary vessels
12. HISTORY
• Differentiate true from pseudo hemoptysis and
hematemesis
• Pseudohemoptysis: Aggressive sinus &posterior nasal
bleeds typically results in aspiration of blood in to airway
• Hematemesis: Bleeding from the GIT
13. HISTORY(cont..)
• AGE: bronchiectasis or valvular lesions occur in pts <40yrs age
>40yrs with h/o smoking more likely it is d/t bronchogenic
neoplasm
• SYMPTOMS:
- Acute hemoptysis with chest pain: pulmonary embolism
- chr.cough with occasional hemoptysis: neoplasm,tb,etc..
- hemoptysis with fever &chills: pneumonia
- sob,edema,cardiomegaly: CHF
- purpura or bleeding from other sites: systemic disease
or coag. disorder
15. PHYSICAL EXAMINATION
• Clubbing , adenopathy and localised wheeze may represent
underlying malignancy
• Clubbing, copious sputum, coarse crackles: bronchiectasis
• Valvular heart lesions may typically be auscultated-murmurs
• Nasal septal ulcerations and cartilaginous deformities :WG
• Mucocutaneous telangectasia: osler-weber-rendu syndrome
• Petechiae: coagulopathy
16. LABORATORY EVALUTATION
• Initial work up : CBP, urine analysis, sputum for AFB smear, culture
& sensitivity, chest x-ray
-Platelet count, clotting profile,Hb
-BGT, cross matching, ABG
-RFT,LFT
• If pulm. embolism is suspected: ABG analysis, V/Q scan, pulm
angiography
• CHF : ECG, 2D ECHO
17. Chest radiographs
• Important for diagnosing and lateralisation of source of bleeding
• Malignancies,tb,bronchiectasis ,lung abscess can be strongly
suspected
LIMITATIONS: SEVERAL CAUSES MAY BE
RADIOGRAPHICALLY SILENT
(endobronchial malignancy, carcinoid tumor, bronchiolith, aorto
bronchial fistula, pulmonary embolism)
18. CT-CHEST
• It should be done for those cases where chest x-ray &
bronchoscopy did not diagnose or localise the pathology
19.
20. Diagnostic bronchoscopy
• Early bronchoscopy :(48 hrs)
• Diagnostic yield is higher
• Likelyhood of localizing site is more
• Accurate localization may direct therapeutic
interventioin
23. MANAGEMENT OF MASSIVE HEMOPTYSIS
• AIR WAY STABILISATION
• ENDOSCOPIC THERAPEUTICS
• TOPICAL AGENTS
• LASER BRONCHOSCOPY
• ELECTROCAUTERY
• BRONCHIAL ARTERY EMBOLISATION
• SURGERY
24. • 1)POSITION THE PATIENT :with bleeding site down
to protect the unaffected lung
• 2)Volume resuscitation
• 3)Anti tussive agents &sedatives: role is
controversial (use cautiously)
• 4)Hemostatic agents: tranexemic acid
25. AIR WAY STABILISATION
• Intubate and protect the “good lung”
• Isolate the bleeding lung
• Tamponade the source of bleeding
26. Airway techniques : 4 major strategies
1) Single lumen ET directed in to good lung
31. • Rigid bronchoscope:
-b/c of large barrel size all therapeutic techniques may be easily
performed
-barrel itself can be used to core out tumors after
the blood supply has been adequately coagulated
Limitations- requires GA, inspection is limited to central airways
• Flexible bronchoscope: routinely performed, easily at bedside using
conscious sedation, detailed distal airway inspection is possible, can
be used along with rigid bronchoscopy
32. TOPICAL AGENTS
• Endoscopically applied topical agents that are
used to control the bleeding source
Vasoconstrictive
Procoagulant agents
these agents are injected in to the bleeding segment using
a bronchoscope
34. LASER BRONCHOSCOPY
• CO2 LASER
• Nd:YAG laser – delivery fiber is small& flexible, hence used
through both rigid &flexible bronchoscope
• Limitations:
• 1)may ignite flammable structures such as
bronchoscopes,Ettubes,suction catheters etc.
2)Limited to those patients with focal endobronchial pathologies
3)There is no role for bronchoscopic laser therapy in hemoptysis
secondary to bronchiectasis, pulmonary AVMs,etc.
35. ELECTROCAUTERY
• Argon plasma coagulation(APC) is a non contact form of e.
cautery used to coagulate bleeding foci in airways
37. INDICATIONS FOR BAE
Bronchial embolization and non bronchial systemic
artery embolization
Bilateral, advanced disease
Vital capacity < 40%
Inability of localize site of bleeding
Non resectable Br CA with distant metastases
Recurrent hemoptysis after traumatic or resective
surgery
Refusal by patient for surgical intervention
38. BAE(CONT..)
• Anatomy: bronchial arteries arise from descending
thoracic aorta mc b/w T5-T6 vertebra
• Most common pattern is 2 on the left& one on right
39. • Technique of BAE:
• Preliminary descending thoracic aortogram
• Evaluate number & origin sites of bronchial arteries
• After catherisation of bronchial artery bronchial angiography
is performed by manual injection of contrast medium
40. BAE
• Angiographic findings in massive hemoptysis:
hypertrophic &tortous bronchial arteries
neovascularisation
shunting into pulm. Artery or vein
extravasition of contrast medium
bronchial artery aneurysm
41. EMBOLIC AGENTS
Gelatin sponge (GelfoamR)
Polyvinyl alcohol(PVA)
Microspheres
Coils
Spongel
Polyurethane or velour plus albumin
Macroaggregates plus sclerosing agents
Gelatin sponge plus bucrylate
Gelatin sponge plus coils
Polyvinyl alcohol plus coils
Polyvinyl alcohol plus gelatin sponge
42. CATHETERS
• Cobra type curved catheters are most
commonly used
• Simmons- 1
• Headhunter
• Yashoro-type
• Microcather
45. BAE(complications)
• Chest pain(ischemia)
• Dysphagia
• Spinal cord ischemia d/t occl. Of spinal arteries
(most disastrous complication)
• Pulmonary infarction
• Non target organ embolisation(ex:ischemic colitis)
• Recurrence may occur d/t recanalisation ,revascularisation
by collaterals,non bronchial systemic arterial supply
• In this sense BAE is a bridge procedure
46. Surgery
INDICATIONS:
1)Uncontrolled massive hemoptysis when the site of bleed has been
lateralised and localised to a segment or lobe
2)When embolisation is not available or not succesful
3)When bleeding from a known site with in a lung is assoc. with
persistent haemodynamic instability and resp.compr.
4)As definitive therapy in patients whose haemoptysis has stopped
47. SURGICAL TREATMENT
• GENERALLY THE LOBE CONTAINING THE BLEEDING
SITE IS IDENTIFIED
• IF MORE THAN ONE BLEEDING SITE EXISTS OR THE
REMAINING LUNG IS ALREADY DISEASED THE
WHOLE LUNG IS REMOVED
• IN NUTSHELL EITHER A LOBECTOMY OR A
PNEUMONECTOMY IS DONE
48. • Contraindications:
1)Arterial hypoxemia & co2 retention
2)Poor pulmonary reserve
3)Bilateral lung disease
4)lnability to localise the site of bleeding
5)Diffuse disease
6)Pulmonary hypertension(mpp>30mm Hg)
