ASTHMA
Definition
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of airway caused by allergic response of bronchi resulting in reversible narrowing of airway due to bronchoconstriction (spasm ) congestion and thickening of wall of bronchi and accumulation of mucus (recurrent attack of dyspnoea and wheezing
Cause/A etiology
There are some factors which are responsible for asthma
Environmental factor
- change in temperature mostly cold air
- change in humidity -dry air
Atmospheric pollutant
- cigarette industrial smoke Ozone Sulphur Dioxide formaldehyde
Allergic inhalation
- food treated with sulphate beer wine etc
stress emotional/upset
Medication
- NASID and Beta blocker
strong order and perfumes
Risk factor
- family history
- history of allergy
- passive smoking
- obesity
- urban living
- low birth weight
- Regular use of NSAID
Types of asthma
it is of two types
- EXtrinsic( allergic ) (commonly occur in childhood)
2 . Intrinsic ( non allergic) commonly occur about 35 years age
clinical manifestation /sign and symptoms
- wheezing
- cough (all night and early in Morning)
- chest tightness
- Dyspnoea
- prolong expiration
- hypoxemia
- Rohini(sound during inspiration )
- attack of asthma may be for few minutes dash hour
Pathophysiology
Extrinsic (Allergic)
INTRINSIC
Diagnostic evaluation
- physical examination
- history collection
- spirometry
- ABG( atrial blood glasses analysis)
- hypoxemia (increased pco2 acidosis )
- chest X-ray( for hyperinflation of lung
- Auscultation of breath sound (wheezing sound )
complication
- Respiratory failure
- pneumonia
- cardiac arrest
- status asthmaticus
- atelectasis
- cardiac arrest
Medical management
Bronchodilator( beta agonist)
They cause widening of the airway by relaxing bronchial smooth muscle by stimulate beta receptor
example
- salbutamol
- albuterol
- formoterol
xanthine derivatives
They have a diuretic effect and relaxes smooth muscles especially of bronchi
example
- Theophylline
- Deriphylline
- Aminophylline
Anticholinergic drug
The action of this drug include Relaxation of smooth muscle and decrease secretion of mucus( antispasmodic action )
example
- Ipratropium
- atropine sulphate
Corticosteroid Anti inflammatory and allergic
example
- methylprednisolone
- prednisolone
- betamethasone
Leukotriene receptor antagonist
- They prevent the action of Leukotriene by blocking their receptor on cell membrane
example
- montelukast
- zafirlukast
Mast cell stabilizer
example
cromolyn sodium

Bacterial infection
Gram Positive
Gram Negative

Types
1segmental pneumonia
only in one small segmental lobes of lungs
2 bilateral pneumonia

only in one small segmental lobes of lungs
2 bilateral pneumonia
both side segmental lobes of lungs are affected

- chills
- sweating
- pleuritic pain
- cough
- sputum production
- haemoptysis cough with blood
- dyspnoea
- cyanosis
- rapid pulse
- hot pallor skin
- increase rispiratory rate
- low o2 saturation
- headache
- fatigue
- dull sound produce on percussion
- unequal chest wall expansion
pathophysiology
due to any cause example bacteria viral or other
inflammation in alveoli
mast cell activate and release
histamine
prostaglandin
cytokinins
leukotrienes
due to cytokinin release flute shift to extracellular space capillary permeability
alveoli filled with fluid
consolidation
decrease O2 saturation in body
hypoxemia /hypoxia
clinical diagnosis
- sputum for culture and sensitivity
- chest X-ray
- bronchoscopy
- ABC analysis
- cracked sound
- mountoux test
complication
- pleural effusion
- atelectasis
- super infection pericarditis bacteremia meningitis
Medical management
prevention of pneumonia by vaccination
use of antibiotic therapy for treatment
- penicillin
- ampicillin
- amikacin

pulmonary Tuberculosis
Definition
It is a chronic infectious diseases caused by mycobacterium tuberculosis and characterized by the formation of tubercles (round nodules warty outgrowth )or granulomass in lungsgranulomas means localized collection of cell usually produced in response to an infectious process
it may be transmitted to other body part such as meninges bones kidney lymph nodes
Causes /a etiology
Mycobacterium
By air droplet
By exposure with person who is infected to prolonged and close frequent
By air droplet
By exposure with person who is infected to prolonged and close frequent
Risk factor
- malnutrition
- excessive alcohol addiction
- Silicosis
- HIV
- Nutrition
- Crowding
- Diabetes mellitus
- Genetics
- cancer
- rheumatoid arthritis
- Crohn’s disease
- psoriasis
- lupus
- immune supressive person
Signs and symptoms/ clinical manifestation
In pulmonary tb patient is free from symptoms in early stages of diseasein lateral stage some sign symptoms are find out these are
- anorexia
- malaise
- irregular mensuration in women
- cough
- chest pain
- hemoptysis
- fever,
- chills
- , night sweats,
- loss of appetite,
- weight loss
- fatigue.
pathology physiology
Mycobactrium bacilli inhales
transmitted through air ways to alveolar
multiplication
transfer to lymph system and blood stream
immune system responded
phagocytes engulf to many bacteria
tb lymphocytes bacilli spreads in normal tissues
accumulation of exudation in alveolar
bronchopneumonia
Diagnosed test
- purified protein derivative (PPD) skin test
- Blood testChest
- X-ray
- sputum test
Medical management
- primary agents
soniazid.
Rifampin (Rifadin, Rimactane)
Ethambutol (Myambutol)
Pyrazinamide.
2. secondary agents
