AbstractA total of 23 patients have been treated endoscopically during the last three and a half years for a variety of diseases in the tracheo-bronchial tree; nine had a tracheal stenosis. Thirteen patients have been treated by resection with a high frequency cutting loop, eleven with a CO2-laser and one with an argon laser. A total of 44 treatments have been performed. Half of the treatments were given because of various malignant diseases.The results of the treatment of this very mixed group of patients were, as a whole, satisfactory with both CO2-laser and cutting loop. A more precise technique can be applied with the CO2-laser than the cutting loop, though the latter is the more efficient and easy to work with. Care must be taken with the loop because of its greater cutting depth.The argon laser has only limited use in the treatment of diseases in the trachea.

Staphylococcus aureus is a common human pathogen involved in non-bronchial diseases and in genetic and acquired bronchial diseases. In this study, we applied an immunolabeling approach for in vivo and in vitro detection of S. aureus, based on the affinity of staphylococcal protein A (SpA) for the Fc region of immunoglobulins, especially IgG. Most strains of S. aureus, including clinical strains, can be detected with this labeling technique. The approach can be used for detection and localization with transmission electron microscopy or light-fluorescence microscopy of S. aureus in infected tissues such as human bronchial tissue from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. The methodology can also be applied to cell culture models with the aim of characterizing bacterial adherence to epithelial cells in backscattered electron imaging with scanning electron microscopy. Application to the study of S. aureus adherence to airway epithelium showed that the bacteria did not adhere in vivo to intact airway epithelium. In contrast, bacteria adhered to the basolateral plasma membrane of columnar cells, to basal cells, to the basement membrane and were identified beneath the lamina propria when the epithelium was injured and remodeled, or in vitro when the epithelial cells were dedifferentiated.

Health care has experienced an unprecedented rise in the last decade. In order to keep their vital signs measured, patients will have to make regular visits to the doctor. The Cough detection device helps in the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory problems at an early age. Cough aims to remove mucus and bronchial diseases, which plays an important role in prevention and cure. More than 3 million individuals died of COPD in 2012, which is equivalent to 6 percent of all fatalities worldwide a year, according to world estimates. Citizens consider it impossible to track cough-related illnesses in rural areas because of the sophistication of the system and its testing costs. Nowadays, some people do have a mix of COPD and asthma. There is an immense demand for non-invasive ways of calculating these vital signs. This paper aims to develop and deploy a safe, inexpensive, low powered, non-intrusive, and effective device that can be worn daily and track the vital signs and show the performance to the mobile phone. The physician can also conveniently access such data through a wireless medium. This paper deals primarily with the acquisition of vital signs for signal conditioning and data: ECG, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, Sp02, cough rate, and respiration rate. This work proposes an innovative wearable cough detection method for early diagnosis and very early treatment of pulmonary diseases.

Modelo do estudo: Revisão sistemática. Objetivo: Avaliar se os recursos de fisioterapia respiratória modificam a impedância pulmonar avaliada pelas técnicas de oscilações forçadas (TOF’s) em adultos com distúrbios ventilatórios obstrutivos. Método: Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática conduzida nas bases de dados PubMed, Scielo, Lilacs e PEDro, utilizando-se a seguinte estratégia de busca: Obstructive pulmonary disease OR chronic obstructive pulmonary disease OR COPD OR Bronchiectasis OR Bronchial diseases OR Cystic fibrosis OR mucoviscidosis AND impulse oscillometry OR forced oscillation techniques AND physical therapy OR physiotherapy AND Airway Resistance. Resultados: De um total de 216 artigos, apenas 3 foram incluídos. As amostras totalizaram 64 participantes, incluindo adultos com fibrose cística (FC), doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica (DPOC) e bronquiectasias. Dois estudos utilizaram o flutter® e um realizou drenagem autógena. A impedância pulmonar foi avaliada em duas pesquisas pelo sistema de oscilometria de impulso (IOS) e em um pela TOF modificada (TOF-m). Houve redução da resistência em várias frequências, sendo que as mais frequentes foram a resistência total (3/3), a resistência central (2/3) e a periférica (2/3). Além disso, a reatância pulmonar apresentou resultados conflitantes. Conclusão: Evidenciou-se que os recursos fisioterapêuticos utilizados para remoção de secreções das vias aéreas modificam a impedância pulmonar avaliada pelas TOF’s em adultos com DVO, sendo a resistência total das vias aéreas o parâmetro com maior ganho terapêutico.
