This document discusses the anatomical and physiological peculiarities of the respiratory system in children. It describes the embryological development of respiratory organs from the 3rd week of gestation through birth. There are several anatomical differences compared to adults, including smaller and narrower nasal passages, underdeveloped sinuses, and a higher located larynx. Respiratory rates are also higher in children. Examination of children with respiratory diseases involves clinical exams, laboratory/imaging tests, and evaluation of cough, sputum, and breathing patterns, which can provide clues to different conditions.
The document discusses anatomical and physiological features of the cardiovascular system in children from birth through adolescence. It describes how the heart and vessels develop during gestation and how circulation changes after birth with the closure of fetal pathways. The heart is initially rounded but becomes more oval by age 6. Vessels are relatively large at birth to accommodate high blood flow and become proportionate to the body as children grow. The cardiovascular system undergoes significant changes to transition to adult circulation.
This document provides an overview of the anatomy and physiology of the gastrointestinal system in infants and children. It describes how the oral cavity, esophagus, stomach, intestines, pancreas, liver and gallbladder develop and function differently in children compared to adults. For example, the stomach is initially horizontal and increases in size with age, digestive enzyme production is lower in infants, and the liver has incomplete differentiation and functionality in newborns. It also lists some common GI symptoms in children and potential diagnostic tests.

Semiotics & Main Syndrome Of Respiratory System Infections In ChildrenAlok Kumar
This document discusses various symptoms and signs related to respiratory conditions in children. It describes different types of cough seen in larynx lesions, tracheitis, bronchitis, bronchial asthma, pneumonia, and pertussis. It also discusses diagnostic approaches to chronic cough based on factors like age, nature of cough and sputum, relationship to time/posture, presence of wheezing, response to prior therapy, nutrition status, and physical exam findings. Finally, it outlines various respiratory noises like stridor, wheezing, snoring, grunting, and rattling and their typical causes and characteristics.
This document discusses respiratory distress and respiratory failure. Respiratory distress refers to increased work of breathing, while respiratory failure is the inability of the lungs to provide oxygen or remove carbon dioxide. Respiratory failure can be acute or chronic. It can occur due to problems with the respiratory pump (central nervous system issues, muscle weakness) or due to airway/lung dysfunction (conditions affecting gas exchange like asthma, pneumonia). Proper monitoring of patients with respiratory distress or failure includes clinical examination, blood gas analysis, and oximetry. Immediate treatment of acute respiratory failure focuses on oxygenation and ventilation. Chronic respiratory failure often has a more insidious onset and requires careful monitoring, especially during sleep or illness.
This document summarizes some key differences between pediatric and adult respiratory anatomy and physiology. It notes that in children, the pharynx is more enlarged anteriorly, the pharyngeal tonsils are larger but can obstruct the airway, and the vocal cords have a concave rather than flat shape. The trachea is located higher and has softer, more sensitive cartilage. Lungs have fewer and less developed alveoli, resulting in lower gas exchange capacity. Several common pediatric respiratory conditions are also summarized, including croup, bronchiolitis, asthma, and cystic fibrosis.
Endocrine system in children. Semiotics diseasesEneutron
The endocrine system is composed of glands that secrete hormones to regulate growth, metabolism, reproduction and other processes. The pituitary gland is called the "master gland" as it controls other endocrine glands by producing hormones that stimulate or inhibit their secretions. Disorders can occur if the pituitary, hypothalamus or target glands are hypofunctional or hyperfunctional. In children, too little or too much hormone production can impact growth and development.

Stridor is a harsh sound caused by partial obstruction of the upper airway. Common causes include viral infections like croup. The severity of obstruction can be assessed clinically by characteristics of stridor and degree of chest retraction. Complete obstruction can cause cyanosis and reduced consciousness. Viral croup accounts for over 95% of laryngotracheal infections and usually occurs in children aged 6 months to 6 years, peaking at age 2.
The document discusses several anatomical and physiological peculiarities of the nervous system in children. It notes that the brain mass is a higher percentage of body mass in newborns compared to adults, and certain areas develop more quickly than others. Neurons in newborns have less surface area covered by synapses and shorter axons compared to older children and adults. The formation of the nervous system is most important in early childhood, and negative influences in the first 18 months can cause future disturbances.
This document provides an overview of examining the cardiovascular system in pediatric patients and approaching a child with suspected congenital heart disease (CHD). It discusses taking a history, performing a general physical exam, assessing vital signs, inspecting the precordium, palpating pulses and heart sounds, and auscultating for murmurs. The key steps in approaching a child with possible CHD are determining if it is cyanotic or acyanotic, assessing pulmonary blood flow and pulmonary artery pressure, and identifying any duct-dependent lesions.

This document provides information on meningococcal infection. It begins by defining meningococcal infection and describing its causative agent, Neisseria meningitidis. It then covers the epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical forms, clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment of meningococcal infection. Key points include that it is transmitted via air droplets and can cause meningitis, meningococcemia, or both. Clinical features depend on the form but may include fever, rash, headache and vomiting. Diagnosis involves examining cerebrospinal fluid which shows pleocytosis. Meningococcal infection is a serious public health issue worldwide.
Cystic fibrosis is an inherited disease affecting the lungs and digestive system. It is caused by mutations in the CFTR gene, which encodes a chloride channel. This leads to thick, sticky mucus buildup in the lungs, pancreas, and other organs. Symptoms include persistent lung infections, gastrointestinal issues like poor growth. The diagnosis is made through genetic testing, sweat tests, and clinical features. Treatment focuses on airway clearance, antibiotics, enzymes, vitamins, and managing complications through medications, airway therapy, exercise, and sometimes surgery or lung transplantation.

Wheezy chest in pediatric age group can be caused by various acute and chronic conditions. Acute causes include reactive airway disease from infections or inhalation. Chronic or recurrent causes include recurrent infections, asthma, cystic fibrosis, foreign body aspiration, and intrinsic airway lesions. Evaluation of a wheezing child involves obtaining a clinical history and performing a physical examination, chest X-ray, and other tests as needed based on findings. Management depends on the underlying cause but may include bronchodilators, corticosteroids, antibiotics, and addressing any underlying risk factors.
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect. It can cause problems with the structure of the heart and how it functions. Common types of CHD include ventricular septal defect (VSD), atrial septal defect (ASD), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), and tetralogy of Fallot. Symptoms depend on the specific type but may include cyanosis, fatigue, and heart failure. Treatment options range from medication to close a PDA, to surgery or catheter procedures to repair defects. Regular monitoring is important as some types of CHD can cause long-term issues if left untreated.

1. The document discusses paediatric lung disease and anatomy. It describes the normal anatomy of the lungs and histology of the bronchioles, alveolar walls and septa.
2. Specific paediatric lung diseases discussed include congenital anomalies, cysts, bronchopulmonary sequestration, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, atelectasis, collapse and respiratory distress syndrome.
3. Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome, also known as hyaline membrane disease, is caused by surfactant deficiency in premature infants and results in the deposition of hyaline membranes in the alveoli.
The respiratory system begins developing in the fetus at 3 weeks of gestation. By 16 weeks, the main bronchial structures are formed. Fetal breathing movements occur from the end of the first trimester, with the glottis closed. Surfactant matures at 35-36 weeks, so preterm infants are at risk for respiratory distress syndrome due to lack of surfactant. Congenital abnormalities can occur from damage during weeks 3-7 of development, resulting in conditions like laryngeal atresia or tracheal stenosis.

Finally, it notes some important congenital anomalies of the respiratory system.
The document summarizes the development of the lower respiratory tract from the 4th week of gestation. It begins as a laryngotracheal groove that envaginates to form the laryngotracheal diverticulum. This divides into the primordium of the lungs and bronchial tree ventrally and the esophagus dorsally. The endoderm lining gives rise to the respiratory epithelium and glands while the surrounding mesoderm forms the connective tissues, cartilage, and smooth muscles. The larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs continue developing through branching morphogenesis and cellular differentiation until birth and early childhood when full alveolar development is reached.
The respiratory system develops from the foregut beginning in the fourth week of development. The respiratory diverticulum forms and bifurcates into right and left lung buds. Over successive stages, the conducting airways and gas exchange regions develop through branching morphogenesis regulated by surrounding mesoderm. The five stages of lung development are embryonic, pseudoglandular, canalicular, saccular and alveolar. Congenital anomalies can occur from defects in partitioning of the foregut or development of structures like the diaphragm and lungs. The pharyngeal arches give rise to structures of the head and neck.
The document summarizes the development of the respiratory system from the early gestational period through childhood. It describes how the respiratory system develops from the foregut and divides into the trachea and lungs. Key stages include the formation of lung buds that develop into bronchi and alveoli for gas exchange. The larynx develops from pharyngeal arches and the lungs expand into the body cavity. Clinical conditions like respiratory distress syndrome in premature babies and esophageal atresia can result from anomalies during respiratory development.
The document summarizes the development of the respiratory system from the fourth week of gestation through childhood. It describes how the larynx, trachea, bronchi and lungs develop from the laryngotracheal groove and lung buds. It outlines the four periods of lung maturation from pseudoglandular to alveolar and discusses how the preacinar and intraacinar pulmonary arteries and veins develop along with the airways and alveoli. The document also notes some potential congenital anomalies that can occur during respiratory development.
The development of the respiratory system begins in the 4th week of gestation with the formation of the laryngotracheal groove. This groove evaginates to form the laryngotracheal diverticulum which separates the foregut into the esophagus and laryngotracheal tube. The laryngotracheal tube gives rise to the larynx, trachea, bronchi and lungs. Lung development occurs through four stages - pseudoglandular, canalicular, saccular and alveolar. Maturation continues after birth as alveoli multiply leading to fully developed gas exchange ability in adults.

1. The respiratory system develops from lung buds that arise from the foregut and connective tissue from the splanchnic mesoderm. During the 4th week, the laryngotracheal groove appears and deepens to form the laryngotracheal tube, which bifurcates to form the right and left lung buds.
2. The proximal part of the laryngotracheal tube forms the larynx, and the distal part forms the trachea. The lung buds form the primordium of the bronchial tree and lungs. The splanchnic mesoderm forms the surrounding connective tissue.
3. Components of the trachea, including the lining epithe
The respiratory system develops from the foregut. By 4 weeks, the nasal prominences appear and the nose develops from the fusion of medial, lateral, and maxillary processes. The larynx develops from the fourth and sixth pharyngeal arches while the lungs bud from the foregut and divide into right and left lungs. The lungs mature through pseudoglandular, canalicular, terminal sac and alveolar phases. Surfactant production allows for respiration at birth. Common anomalies include esophageal atresia and respiratory distress syndrome in premature infants due to surfactant deficiency.
The development of the respiratory system begins in the fourth week of gestation with the appearance of facial prominences and nasal structures. Later, the lung buds form as outgrowths of the foregut and develop into branching structures including the trachea, bronchi, and alveoli through childhood. The larynx develops from the sixth pharyngeal arches. Congenital anomalies can include esophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistulas. The lungs continue maturing after birth through alveolar multiplication.
The document discusses the embryology and histology of the lungs. It begins with an overview of lung development from the respiratory primordium stage through formation of the trachea and lungs. It describes how the lungs mature through pseudoglandular, canalicular, and saccular stages in the fetus. After birth, the lungs continue developing through the alveolar stage up to age 8 as alveoli and capillaries multiply, increasing gas exchange surface area. Fetal breathing movements and production of surfactant facilitate the transition to autonomous breathing at birth.
This document summarizes the stages of human lung development from embryogenesis through adulthood. It begins with the formation of the lung bud from the foregut around 4 weeks of gestation. Branching morphogenesis occurs through the embryonic and fetal periods, forming the bronchial tree. Alveolar sacs begin developing in the late fetal period, and secondary septation transforms these into mature alveoli from birth through 2 years of age. The pleura and pulmonary vasculature also develop during this period. Congenital lung abnormalities such as agenesis, cysts, and tracheoesophageal fistulas can occur if development is disrupted.
The document provides an overview of the anatomy and physiology of the respiratory system. It discusses the main organs and structures involved, including the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, lungs, diaphragm, and intercostal muscles. It describes the processes of breathing, gas exchange, and lung volumes. Key functions of the respiratory system are to oxygenate tissues and remove carbon dioxide through external respiration in the lungs and internal respiration in tissues. Respiratory disorders like COPD that impact lung function are also summarized.

2. The lungs develop from the foregut and have cartilaginous, muscular, and connective tissue components from the mesoderm.
3. Pulmonary function tests evaluate lung volumes, airflow, gas exchange and ventilation/perfusion matching to assess a patient's ability to undergo surgery.
1) The lungs develop from the foregut endoderm and associated mesoderm. The endoderm forms the epithelial lining of the trachea, bronchi, and alveoli while the mesoderm forms the cartilage, muscle, and connective tissue.
2) During the 4th week, lung buds form as outgrowths of the foregut endoderm. Tracheo-esophageal ridges then fuse to separate the trachea from the esophagus. Incomplete fusion can lead to tracheo-esophageal fistulas or esophageal atresia.
3) Over successive developmental stages, the lungs continue to branch and the pleural membranes form, separating the pleural
The respiratory system provides the route for oxygen to enter the body and carbon dioxide to exit. It includes the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles and lungs. The nose warms, moistens and filters inhaled air. The pharynx continues this process and is involved in swallowing and speech. The larynx contains the vocal cords and protects the lungs. The trachea divides into bronchi which branch into smaller bronchioles throughout the lungs, ending in alveoli where gas exchange occurs.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

Respiratory system in children. Embryogenesis of Respiratory organs
1. Anatomical and Physiological Peculiarities
of Respiratory System in Children.
Peculiarities of Embryogenesis of
Respiratory Organs and Anomalies in Their
Development.
2. Plan of the lecture
Making up and intrauterine development of
respiratory organs.
Peculiarities of the structure of upper
respiratory passages.
Middle and lower respiratory passages,
peculiarities of their structure in children in
different age periods.
Examination of children with diseases of the
respiratory system.
3. Embryogenesis of respiratory
organs
From the 3rd
week of embryonic development begins
the formation of respiratory organs and lasts a long
time after the birth of a child.
In the 3rd
week of embryogenesis in cervical portion
of entodermal tube appears a bulge, which grows
rapidly. In the 4th
week it divides into two parts- right
and left - the future right and left lungs. Each of them
in its turn branches up like a tree. Plain muscular
fibers and cartilages of bronchi are formed of a
mesodermal mesenchima.
4. Embryogenesis of respiratory
organs
Canalicular phase (recanalization) lasts 16-26 weeks.
This time takes place formation of holes in bronchi,
continues development and vascularization of the
future respiratory sections of the lungs.
Completing phase (alveolar)- period of the formation
of alveoli - begins in the 24th
week. To the moment of
the child’s birth it does not finish and formation of
alveoli continues also in postnatal period.
6. In anatomical structure respiratory
organs are divided into:
upper respiratory passages
(nasal cavity, pharynx,
larynx);
middle respiratory passages
(trachea, bronchi);
lower respiratory passages
(bronchioli, alveoli).
In children in different age
periods are noticed
peculiarities of respiratory
organs structure.
7. Peculiarities of the structure of
upper respiratory passages:
Nose:
small sizes;
nasal passages are narrow;
in children of the first years of life is absent the lower nasal
passage (its development finishes by 4 years of age);
mucous membrane is gentle, well vascularized, inclined to
quick edemas;
lymph system of the nose is connected with subdural and
subarachnoidal areas, promoting generalizing infection.
8. Peculiarities of the structure of
upper respiratory passages:
Additional sinuses:
underdeveloped (in newborns only sinusoidal
and cribrate are in germinal state, which Rtg
are detected from 3 months);
from 2 years of life is developing frontal and
from 6 years - the main sinuses, due to which
in children of early age never are sinusitis.
9. Peculiarities of the structure of
upper respiratory passages:
Pharynx:
is relatively short and narrow;
internal hearing passage, which opens in rhinopharynx,
is rather wide and straight and this promotes
development of medial otitis;
lymphatic ring of Pirogov-Valdeiern in newborns is
underdeveloped, cripts are absent. Due to this in the first
years of life anginas arise very seldom. By 2-3 years of
life there is intensive development of tonsils, especially
rhino-pharyngeal ones. Clinically this is demonstrated
by adenoids.
10. Peculiarities of the structure of
upper respiratory passages:
Larynx:
short, wide, funnel like, with gentle mild cartilages, thin
muscles;
localized high;
rima glottis is narrow, vocal cords are short, due to this the
children have loud voice;
mucous membrane is thin, gentle, rich of vessels, submucous
layer is hydrophilic. This promotes quick development of
swelling and development of “wrong croup";
in submucous membrane there is much lymphoid tissue.
Sex differences in the structure arise beginning with 10 years
of age (in boys the angle of the cartilage becomes acute, the
entrance widens, vocal cords become longer; in girls –
lengthening is not considerable, larynx is shorter and wide).
11. Peculiarities of the structure of
upper respiratory passages:
Trachea:
narrow, ellipsoid shape (in newborns) and ring like
(in older children);
cartilage is narrow, mild;
mucous membrane is gentle, well vascularized;
bifurcation of trachea is located higher (at the level of
3rd
dorsal vertebra);
weakly fixed, lightly displaces;
the number of mucous glands is not large (dryness as
a result).
12. Peculiarities of the structure of
upper respiratory passages:
Bronchi:
the right bronchus is wider. Goes almost vertically, the left
bronchus is narrow and goes out under angle (in newborns
equal angles of going out). Due to this –most of the foreign
bodies enter the right bronchus.
the system of branching out of bronchi is rough, less muscular
fibers. With age branching out of bronchi becomes finer and
to 7th
year the process is completely finished.
histological structure of bronchial walls is characterized by the
presence of hyaline cartilage plates, weak muscular layer, poor
elastic fibers (there is no adequate cough);
mucous membrane is thin, well vascularized, but dry.
13. Peculiarities of the structure of lower respiratory
passages
The lungs:
by the 4th
month the number of alveoli becomes more;
after 4 months continues the process of increasing the sizes at the
account of differentiation of the existing apparatus;
characteristic rough branching out of the bronchial tree;
histological structure of a lung is characterized by the presence of
loose connective tissue in interlobular membranes and poor elastic
tissue;
forming of Kohn pores (interalveolar complexes);
well developed net of blood vessels and accompanying lymphatic
nodes;
respiratory function depends on the maturity of corresponding
apparatus.
14. Peculiarities of the chest
The chest:
convex, short;
in newborns has round cross (barrel shaped);
horizontal going out of ribs from the spine;
in the first months of life the lungs are larger than the
chest and are pressed into the ribs;
the chest is in the stage of breathing in;
breathing musculature is poorly developed.
15. Peculiarities of respiration in
children
superficial, depth – 8-10p. less than in adults;
large rate of breathing:
in newborns – 50-60 - 1 min;
2 weeks-3 months – 40-45 – 1min;
3-6 months – 35-40 - 1 min;
7-12 months- 30-35 – 1 min;
2-3 years – 25-30 – 1 min;
4-6 years – 20-25 – 1 min;
7-12 years – 2—22 – 1 min;
14-15 years – 18-20 –1 min;
adults – 16 – 1 min.
16. Peculiarities of respiration in
children
arrhythmia in children – breathing in is shorter than
breathing out, pauses are different. During sleep –
they are rhythmical ;
the type of breathing depends on age and sex;
newborns and 1 year –abdominal type of breathing;
2 years – 8-9 years – mixed type;
from 10 years –in boys – abdominal;
girls – breast.
17. So, taking into account the above said, it can
be concluded that in children of younger age
there are more “favourable” conditions for the
development of respiratory organs pathology.
18. Methods of examination of children
with respiratory organs pathology
1.Clinical:
A). questioning (complaints, anamnesis of the disease,
anamnesis of life);
B). survey;
C). palpation;
D). percussion;
E). auscultation.
2. Paraclinical:
A). Laboratory
general blood analysis, biochemical blood analysis, analysis of
sputum.
19. Methods of examination of children
with respiratory organs pathology
B). Instrumental
rentgenological- rentgenography of the lungs, tomography,
rentgenography of nasal cavity, bronchography, radiological
scanning of the lungs;
endoscopic (bronchoscopy, laryngoscopy).
C).Functional
of the function of external breathing – spirography with
determination of vital capacity of the lungs (VCL), forced
VCL, maximal ventilation of the lungs (MVL), rate of air
flow on breath in and breath out;
functional methods of examination with the use of
pharmacological probes.
20. Methods of examination of children
with respiratory organs pathology
D). Microbiological methods: samples from fauces and nose,
examination of bronchial secret, pleural sweat.
E). Allergological diagnostics: skin (applications,
scarification) probes with allergens. Determination of general
IgE and specific IgE to different allergens.
F). Oxygenometria: direct (determination of oxygen
saturation of blood) and indirect (dynamics of saturation).
21. Cough
–– defense act of the organism - discharging from the
respiratory passages nasal mucus, exudates, foreign bodies.
Relatively narrow lumen of respiratory passages in children of
an early age, poor development of muscular membrane of
bronchi promote incompleteness of cough pushes.
According to rhythm cough can be divided into:
cough as separate coughing pushes (weak cough): in
neuroses, sinusitis, in the early stages of tuberculosis);
periodical cough – in patients with pneumonia, chronic
bronchitis. A variation is cough attack, which is the main
symptom of whooping cough.
Permanent cough – characteristic of patients with pharyngitis,
acute bronchitis.
22. Cough
If cough is not accompanied with discharge of
sputum, it is called dry, and with sputum
discharge – moist cough.
according to timbre there are such kinds of
cough:
barking – in laryngitis;
loud (as in the tube) – in tracheitis.
23. Sputum
pathological discharges from respiratory passages. The
amount of sputum always is different:
little – in bronchial asthma, acute bronchitis, interstitial
pneumonia;
much – in bronchoectasis, abscessing pneumonia.
According to character of pathological process sputum can be:
mucous (colorless, transparent, thick),
mico-purulent (thick, turbid, contains mucus and pus),
purulent (in severe purulent bronchitis, abscesses),
bloody (bleeding in upper respiratory passages, tuberculosis,
high blood pressure in lesser blood circulation circuit).
24. In microscopy in sputum can be:
neutrophils – fresh purulent process;
eosinophils – bronchial asthma, bronchitis;
alveolar cells – fresh inflammatory process;
in bronchial asthma – spirals of Kurshman,
crystals of Sharko-Leiden.
25. Pains in the chest
arise in diseases of respiratory system as well
as during the diseases of all other organs in
the chest cavity. Pains in the chest may cause
forced position (in pleuropneumonia,
pleuritis).
Generally the pains are acute, intensive,
increase in deep breathing, during cough,
moving the arms.
26. Change of the voice in a child
indicates on the disease of mucous membrane of
larynx with lesion of the vocal cords. Under acute
respiratory infections (more often in paragrippe)
develops edema of mucous membrane beneath the
vocal cords- laryngitis, clinically demonstrated by
rough barking cough and harsh voice. In diphtheria of
larynx, when croupous inflammation of vocal cords
develops with formation of a film, the voice is lost
(aphonia). Nasal shade of the voice takes place in
chronic rhinitis and adenoids, retropharyngeal
abscesses, tumors of tonsils. Harsh low voice is
characteristic of mixedema.
27. Change of respiration rate
Slowing of respiration rate (bradypnea)- is met
rarely. The main reason – hindered function
of respiratory center (severe intoxication, renal
insufficiency, hepatic insufficiency).
Increase of respiration rate (tachypnea) is
observed under diseases of respiratory and
cardiovascular systems, anemias,
inflammations, pains.
28. Dyspnea Dyspnea is acceleration and hardening of respiration.
Objective symptoms of dyspnea are change of rhythm,
respiration rate and participation of additional respiratory
muscles.
Differentiation:
- inspiratory dyspnea – hardened loud breathing in (in
stenosis of the larynx, foreign bodies in trachea, true croup);
- expiratory dyspnea – hardened prolonged breathing out
with participation of abdominal muscles. It can take place in
narrowing the lumen of bronchi, bronchioles at the account of
edema or their spasm. Is characteristic of obstructive
bronchitis, bronchial asthma;
mixed – hardened breathing in and breathing out. It can take
place in disturbed pulmonary tissue, pleura, diseases of the
heart, ascites, meteorism.
29. Change in the type of respiration
Change of thoracic type of breathing for
abdominal one in girls appears in traumas of
the ribs, myositis, fibrinous pleuritis.
Change of abdominal type of breathing for
thoracic one in boys is a witness of peritonitis,
lesion of diaphragm, ascites, meteorism.
30. The shape of the chest
In healthy children of an older age the chest is cylinder-shaped.
In emphysema of the lungs, bronchial asthma, obstructive
bronchitis- the chest is short and wide - barrel-shaped. Such
shape of the chest is physiological in newborns: anterior-
posterior size is actually equal to transversal, horizontal
branching of the ribs.
Intercostal spaces in healthy children are the same. Widening,
falling out are characteristic of exudative pleuritis, hydro- and
pneumothorax.
Narrowing and extension – for chronic broncho-pulmonary
processes.
In healthy children the chest is symmetrical. In pathology the
symmetry is violated with signs of retraction (chronic fibrinous
process in the lungs- exudative pleuritis, pneunothorax).
31. Pathological symptoms in palpation
Increasing of vocal fremitus- during pathological
processes in pulmonary tissue, accompanied by its
consolidation (in pneumonias).
Weakening of vocal fremitus - in pleuritis,
pneumothorax, atelectasis, pleural tumors.
Can also depend on factors not connected with
pathological processes (obesity, edemas, sharp
physical weakness).
32. Changes in percussion sound
Loss of resonance or dull sound instead of clear one
is observed in:
decrease of the amount of air in pulmonary tissue
(inflammation, tuberculosis, atelectasis);
formation in the lungs another airless tissue (tumor,
abscess);
filling up the pleural cavity with fluid (pleuritis).
This symptom can also be present in pathology of
trachea-bronchial lymph nodes, cardiovascular
system pathology, thymomegaly, tumors of
mediastinum.
33. Changes in percussion sound
Thympanic sound appears in:
formation in the lungs a cavity, full of air
(cavern, cyst, pneumothorax);
decreasing of elasticity of pulmonary tissue
(emphysema). Besides, in high location of
diaphragm (meteorism).
Boxing sound - arises when pulmonary tissue
elasticity is sharply decreased (BA,
emphysema).
34. Physical changes (auscultation
symptoms)
Normally above the pulmonary areas is heard
vesicular respiration (we hear breathing in and
1/3 of breathing out) - sound “f”.
Above the trachea, larynx, area of location of
large bronchi in healthy children we hear
bronchial respiration - sound “h”.
35. Physical changes (auscultation
symptoms)
Vesicular breathing, in which breathing in is shortened, and
breathing out is almost unnoticed, is called weakened
breathing. Can be observed physiologically:
in newborns and 6 months;
in obesity;
well developed muscular tissue:
pathologically:
in tracheal or bronchial occlusion;
initial stages of pneumonia;
under limited respiratory movements;
in exudative pleuritis, hydrothorax;
36. Physical changes (auscultation
symptoms)
harsh breathing - such breathing in which
respiratory murmurs are sharply expressed and
equally well is heard breathing in and
breathing out.
most frequently is present in bronchitis.
37. Physical changes (auscultation
symptoms)
If bronchial breathing is determined above the
pulmonary areas, it is considered to be
pathology (in considerable, wide spread
consolidation of pulmonary tissue -
polysegmentary, croupous pneumonia,
tuberculosis, atelectasis).
38. Rales
are additional respiratory murmurs, which arise in
trachea, bronchi, pulmonary cavities due to motion
and vibration of exudate. Differentiation:
dry and moist rales.
Dry rales: whistling - obstructive bronchitis;
buzzing - acute simple bronchitis;
in bronchial asthma - different rales.
Moist rales: fine-, medium-, large-, bubbling rales.
39. Auscultation changes in bronchitis
and pneumonias:
in bronchitis rales are heard - along the whole
length of the lungs;
in pneumonia - localized;
in bronchitis- changing in localization;
in pneumonia- persistent;
in bronchitis-not loud;
in pneumonia - loud (due to infiltration and
consolidation of the lungs tissue).
40. Peculiarities of crepitation :
is heard at the end of breathing in;
does not change during cough;
is scattered in type of localization;
has a uniform caliber of murmurs.
Crepitation - characteristic sign of
pneumopathias,croupous pneumonia.
41. Pleural murmur
Additional respiratory murmur, which arises under
pleural pathology (friction of visceral and parietal
layers of pleura). Differentiation of pleural murmur
and crepitation is done according to the following
criteria:
heard both stages of respiration;
in pressing with phonendoscope the phenomenon
increases;
heard more superficially;
while imitating respiration, crepitation is not heard,
but pleural murmur is preserved.
