Recent studies showed that nasal high flow (NHF) with or without supplemental oxygen can assist ventilation of patients with chronic respiratory and sleep disorders. The hypothesis of this study was to test whether NHF can clear dead space in two different models of the upper nasal airways. The first was a simple tube model consisting of a nozzle to simulate the nasal valve area, connected to a...
A proposed simplification of radioaerosol inhalation lung cine-scintigraphy, namely 60 min measurement of radioactivity without repeating measurement at 24 hr later and calculation of alveolar deposition ratio (ALDR) by the regression formula of ALDR = -48.08 + 0.47 X FEV1.0% + 0.59 X LRR60, was found useful and applicable even to the evaluation of a drug on mucociliary clearance mechanisms. Th...
tracheomegaly or tracheobronchomegaly is a rare syndrome which is characterized by dramatic dilatation of the trachea and the major bronchi. this syndorme is usually associated with chronic respiratory infection and airway obstruction. in this paper, a case with tracheomegaly and bronchiectasis was scrutinized.
Pulmonary mucociliary clearance is an essential defense mechanism against bacteria and particulate matter. Mucociliary dysfunction is an important feature of obstructive lung diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, cystic fibrosis, and bronchiectasis. This dysfunction in airway clearance is associated with accelerated loss of lung function in patients with obstructive lu...
asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airway with extensive airway remodeling. the ethical issues associated with the studies in asthmatic patients, required development of animal model of asthma. animal models of asthma can provide valuable information on several features of asthma pathogenesis and treatment. although these models cannot carry out all clinical features, they are valu...
Airway mucus hypersecretion and secretion retention can result from inflammation, irritation, stimulation, or mucus-producing tumors. Secretion clearance can be furthered hampered by ciliary dysfunction and by weakness or restrictive lung disease, leading to an ineffective cough. There are a number of different mucoactive medications that have been used to reduce hypersecretion, make secretions...
Background Pulmonary involvement is the main cause of mortality in cystic fibrosis (CF). Airway clearance techniques are non-pharmacological complement options for CF patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the short-term outcome of airway cleaning treatment in patients with cystic fibrosis in a children's hospital. Materials and Methods This clinical trial study conducted on 40 CF pati...
Correspondence To the Editor: In a single‑center, prospective, randomized double‑blind clinical study comparing dexmedetomidine‑ midazolam and sufentanil‑midazolam sedation regimens for awake fiberoptic intubation (AFOI) in 50 patients with difficult airways due to limited mouth opening, Li et al. show that both dexmedetomidine and sufentanil are effective as an adjuvant for AFOI under airway t...
Smoking and COPD are associated with decreased mucociliary clearance, and healthy smokers have shorter cilia in the large airway than nonsmokers. We hypothesized that changes in cilia length are consistent throughout the airway, and we further hypothesized that smokers with COPD have shorter cilia than healthy smokers. Because intraflagellar transport (IFT) is the process by which cilia of norm...
This study aims to identify the effectiveness of Active Cycle Breathing technique (ACT) nursing intervention in overcoming problem an ineffective airway through a series respiratory control, deep breathing and sputum expulsion techniques. The method used is single case study. Respondents this were patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis broad lesions bronchiectasis. results showed that afte...
