Coughing is the body's way of removing foreign material or mucus from the lungs and upper airway passages. A cough can be caused by recent upper airway infections, medications like ACE inhibitors, allergies, smoking, lung diseases, and lung infections. A cough is classified by its duration as acute, subacute, or chronic and by whether it is dry or produces sputum. Common cold and flu symptoms that can cause coughs include high fever, stiff muscles, sneezing, nasal congestion, and sore throat. Excessive uncoughed coughing can lead to urinary incontinence, dizziness, headaches, and rib fractures if left untreated.
The document discusses several key functions of the respiratory system including:
1) Gaseous exchange through the mechanisms of CO2 removal and acid-base balance regulation.
2) Acting as a blood reservoir and filtering emboli.

Symptoms include cough, fever, chest pain, and difficulty breathing. Diagnosis involves physical exam, chest x-rays, culture of respiratory secretions. Treatment focuses on treating the underlying infection with antibiotics and supporting respiratory function. Prevention involves good hygiene, vaccination against influenza, and not smoking.
This document provides information on cough symptoms and management in community pharmacy. It defines cough and describes the anatomy of the respiratory tract. It discusses differential diagnosis of cough based on age, duration, nature, sputum color, periodicity and associated symptoms. When to refer patients with cough is outlined. Management of cough involves the use of cough suppressants, expectorants, decongestants and antihistamines. Practical points on their use in diabetics, steam inhalation and fluid intake are provided.
Respiration occurs in two phases - inspiration and expiration. During inspiration, air enters the lungs via the respiratory tract which includes the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and lungs. Expiration is the passive process where air leaves the lungs. Respiratory muscles like the diaphragm and intercostal muscles facilitate these processes. Gases are exchanged between the alveoli and blood in the lungs via diffusion. Carbon dioxide levels increase and oxygen levels decrease in tissues, triggering respiration.
The document discusses chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and its management. It defines COPD conditions like chronic bronchitis and emphysema. It describes the clinical features, investigations, management, and prognosis of COPD exacerbations presenting with acute respiratory failure. Conservative management includes oxygen, bronchodilators, corticosteroids, and antibiotics. More severe cases may require mechanical ventilation and aggressive therapy.
The document discusses the importance of clean air and the respiratory system. It describes the major parts of the respiratory system including the nasal cavity, trachea, bronchi, lungs and diaphragm. It then lists common symptoms of respiratory illness such as difficulty breathing, coughing, wheezing and sore throat. Several respiratory diseases and disorders are explained including lung cancer, bronchitis, tuberculosis and pneumonia. Common tests used to diagnose respiratory diseases like auscultation, chest ultrasound and bronchoscopy are also outlined. Key technical terms related to respiratory health are defined.
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.
Asthma is a chronic lung disease that inflames and narrows the airways. Asthma causes recurring periods of wheezing (a whistling sound when you breathe), chest tightness, shortness of breath, and coughing. The coughing often occurs at night or early in the morning
This document provides information on the respiratory system, including:
- The two phases of breathing are inspiration and expiration. During inspiration, the lungs expand as the thoracic cage enlarges, allowing air to enter the lungs. During expiration, the lungs and thoracic cage decrease in size, expelling air from the lungs.
- The major muscles involved in breathing include the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles, which are the primary inspiratory muscles. Accessory inspiratory muscles include the scalenes and sternocleidomastoid.
- Two factors contribute to the natural collapsing tendency of the lungs: their elastic recoil and surface tension in the alveoli. Pulmonary surfactant
Bronchitis is inflammation of the bronchial tubes caused by viruses, bacteria, smoking, and other irritants. It can be acute, lasting a few weeks, or chronic, lasting over 3 months. Symptoms include cough, sputum production, wheezing, and shortness of breath. Treatment focuses on airway clearance using expectorants, bronchodilators, corticosteroids, and antibiotics for secondary infections. Smoking cessation, exercise, chest physiotherapy, and oxygen therapy can help manage chronic bronchitis. Nursing care emphasizes improving breathing, clearing secretions, preventing infections, and enhancing coping skills.
The document discusses several respiratory disorders:
- Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways causing hyperresponsiveness and mucus production. Common triggers include allergies, irritants, exercise and stress. Symptoms are coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath. Treatment includes preventative inhaled corticosteroids and bronchodilators for relief.
- Pneumonia is an infection of the lungs that causes inflammation in the air sacs. Symptoms are cough, fever, chest pain and shortness of breath. It can be caused by bacteria, viruses or fungi. Treatment involves antibiotics, fever relief medications and oxygen therapy.
- COPD is a lung disease characterized by obstruction of

The Johari Window model describes how information about an individual is divided among four panes or "areas" based on what is known to the individual themselves and what is known by others. The four areas are: the open or public area which contains information known by both self and others; the blind area which contains information known by others but not self; the hidden area which contains information known by self but not others; and the unknown area which contains information known by neither self nor others. The model can be used to analyze interpersonal relationships and identify different personality types based on the relative sizes of the four areas.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

4. Definition
Cough is a sudden, often repetitive, spasmodic contraction of
the thoracic cavity, resulting in violent release of air from the
lungs, and usually accompanied by a distinctive sound.
Coughing is an action the body takes to get rid of substances
that irritates the air passages.
Coughing can happen voluntarily as well as involuntarily.
5. Causes Of Cough
1. Cough is usually initiated to clear a buildup of phlegm in the
trachea as air may move through this passage at up to 480
km/h during a contraction.
2. Coughing can be triggered by a bolus of food going down the
trachea instead of the esophagus, due to a failure of the
epiglottis, although this may result in choking instead.
6. Cont. …
3. The frequent or chronic coughing usually indicates the
presence of a disease.
– Provided the patient is a non-smoker and has a normal chest X-ray, the
cause of chronic cough in 93% of all patients is due to asthma, reflux
(heartburn) or post-nasal drip.
4. Other causes of chronic cough include chronic bronchitis and
medications such as ACE inhibitors.
7. Cough Reflex
The cough reflex consists of 5 components:
1. Cough receptor
They are the key to cough, particularly in pathological cases,
they are either:
Extraothoracic receptors:
• Nose, oropharynx or larynx
Intrathoracic receptors:
• They are rapidly adapting irritant receptors in epithelium of
lower trachea and large central bronchi
Other location:
• Diaphragm and stomach
8. Cont. …
2. Afferent nerves
Trigeminal, glossopharnygeal, superior laryngeal and vagus
nerve.
3. Cough center in the brain stem
4. Efferent nerves
Recurrent laryngeal, vagus, corticospinal tract and peripheral
nerves.
5. Effector muscle
Thoraco-abdominal muscles
9. Cont. …
The reflex begins with deep inspiration, followed by glottic
closure, diaphragmatic relaxation, and thoracic and abdominal
expiratory muscle contraction.
10. Types Of Cough
1. Dry – nonproductive – irritative cough
May be caused by mechanical, chemical, thermal, or
inflammatory stimuli.
Alteration of surface epithelium of major airway, exposed
to irritant receptors, which become sensitized and cause
cough.
11. Cont. …
2. Productive cough
Accumulation of secretions may can be due to one of the
following:
1. Excessive production
2. Altered physical properties
3. Deficient clearance
12. Causes Of Cough
1. Post nasal drip
2. Common cold or influenza
3. Pneumonia and bronchitis
4. Gastroesophageal reflux disease
5. Cough variant asthma
6. Drugs like beta blockers, ACE inhibitors
7. Fungal infections
13. Cont. …
7. Environmental pollutants, such as cigarette smoke, dust, or
smog, can also cause a cough.
– In the case of cigarette smokers, the nicotine present in the smoke
paralyzes the hairs (cilia) that regularly flush mucus from the
respiratory system. The mucus then builds up, forcing the body to
remove it by coughing.
8. Chronic conditions, such as asthma, chronic bronchitis,
emphysema, and cystic fibrosis, are characterized in part by a
cough.
14. Diagnosis
1. Medical history
• Information regarding the duration of the cough.
• What other symptoms may accompany it.
• What environmental factors may influence it.
2. The appearance of the sputum will also help determine what
type of infection, if any, may be involved. The doctor may
even observe the sputum microscopically for the presence of
bacteria and white blood cells.
3. Chest x rays may help indicate the presence and extent of
such infections as pneumonia or tuberculosis.
15. Complications
I. Acute complications
1. Cough Syncope, fainting spells when coughs are prolonged
and forceful due to decreased blood flow to the brain
secondary to raised intrathoracic pressure due to cough.
2. Inability to sleep.
3. Cough induced vomiting.
4. Chest pain due to muscular strain of incessant coughing
5. In severe cases, prolonged coughing can cause fatigue
fractures of lower ribs and costochondritis, an
inflammation of the connective tissue between the
breastbone and the ribs.
16. Cont. …
II. Chronic complications
1. Abdominal or pelvic hernias
2. In women with prolapsed uterus cough can cause
cough micturition which can be a major social
nuisance
3. Cough defecation can also be noted.
17. Treatment
Treatment of a cough generally involves addressing the condition
causing it.
An acute infection such as pneumonia may require
antibiotics.
An asthma-induced cough may be treated with the use of
bronchodilators, or an antihistamine may be administered in
the case of an allergy.
18. Cont. …
Some physicians prefer not to suppress a productive cough,
since cough aids the body in clearing respiratory system of
infective agents and irritants.
However, cough medicines may be given if the patient cannot
rest because of the cough or if the cough is not productive, as
is the case with most coughs associated with colds or flu.
19. 1- Cough Suppressants
The use of cough suppressants as a symptomatic treatment is
appropriate when there is nonproductive cough.
Cough suppressants have either central or peripheral action
on the cough reflex or a combination of both:
20. Cont. …
CENTRALLY ACTING cough suppressants increase the threshold
of the cough center to the incoming stimuli by inhibiting the
capsaicin-induced sensory nerve by depolarization of the vagus
nerve
e.g. Codeine, pholcodine and dextromethorphan
Major adverse effects of these drugs were; sedation, respiratory
depression and constipation
21. Cont. …
PERIPHERALLY ACTING cough suppressants decreases the
sensitivity of the receptors in the respiratory tract.
They are classified into two types:
1. Demulcents
Include glycerol, honey, lemon, and sucrose syrup
They act indirectly by providing a protective coating over
the sensory receptors in the pharyngeal wall, but have little
or no effect on those in the lungs.
22. Cont. …
2.Local anesthetic
Include lidocaine and menthol
They act indirectly on the sensory receptors
Lidocaine is used a s a cough suppressant in:
Bronchoscopy under mild sedation
Chronic nonspecific cough
Major adverse effect of these drugs is the loss of the protective
pulmonary reflexes and bronchospasm.
23. 2- Expectorants
Expectorants increase the volume of secretions in the respiratory
tract through a reflex irritant effect on bronchial mucosa, thus,
this fluid have a demulcent effect on the respiratory mucosa and
facilitate their removal by the ciliary action and coughing.
24. 3- Antihistamines
Antihistamines are used in cough preparations for:
1. Reduce the cholinergic nerve transmission, thus blocking the
afferent pathway.
2. Suppress cough as a result of sedative action.
3. Reduce nasal secretion and postnasal drips.
25. 4- Mucolytics
They alter the structure of the mucus in order to decrease its
viscosity, thus facilitating its removal by the ciliary action.
28. 1- Cilia
The entire surface of the respiratory passages is lined with
ciliated epithelium.
In the nasal cavity and the lower respiratory airways, the cilia
beat in a whip-like motion (10-20/second) which moves a
layer of mucus at a rate of 1 cm/min.
29. Cont. …
Cilia develop at their tip fine claws with which they can grasp
the mucus blanket when they beat forward, whereas on the
return to the upright position they glide past the mucus
blanket.
The continuous beating causes the coast of mucus to flow
slowly toward the pharynx.
Then the mucus and its entrapped particles are either
swallowed or coughed to the exterior.
30.
31. 2- The Secretory Cells
A. Goblet Cells
Goblet cells are glandular simple columnar epithelial cells
whose sole function is to secrete mucus.
They form mucus in their endoplasmic reticulum and store it
as droplets in their apical part, then they discharge it as a bulk.
They are found scattered among the epithelial lining of many
organs, especially the intestinal and respiratory tracts.
32. 2- The Secretory Cells
B. Submucus Gland
They are found in large bronchi along with goblet cells.
They are connected to the bronchial surface by long narrow
ducts.
33. 2- The Secretory Cells
C. Clara Cells
They are secretory cells found in small bronchioles. Although
their secretory products are unknown but they are involved in
the detoxification of foreign compounds.
35. Mucous
Mucus secretion is composed of water and glycoprotein.
It is consisted of 2 layers;
1. Periciliary fluid:
1. It lies over the cilia
2. It is 5 µm thick.
3. It allows the cilia to move freely with only the top of the
cilia contact the overlying mucus.
2. Gel layers:
1. It lies over the periciliary fluid layer.
2. It is 5-10 µm thickness that exists as a discontinuous
blanket (islets of mucus)
36. Cont. …
Functions of mucus:
1. Keep the lining epithelium moist.
2. Traps particles from the inspired air and prevents it from
reaching the alveoli.
