Resources for use by our visitors
Here is an article about
chronic obstructive lung disease and about
emphysema. We also have other resourses for use by our
visitors. A complete list of the resourses is given here.
About chronic obstructive
pulmonary
disease (COPD)
Chronid pbstructive pulmonaty (lung) disease is a
collective term used about diseases surfaces inside the luungs for
oxygen absorbtion is reduced, the elesticity in the lung tissue is
dimmished or the passages of air in the lungs are narrowed. These changes make
the lung less capable of absorbing oxygen. Diagnoses associated with under this
aggregate term include chronic asthmatic bronchitis, chronic bronchitis with
obstruction, bronchiektasia and emphysema.
Because many patients have conditions that are
blending sof these disorders, the diagnosis COLSs often used instead of the
specific diagnoses.
Causes and mechanisms of these
diseases
COPD is often triggered by prolonged irritation
of the respiratory tract. The most common cause is tobacco smoking, and the
condition is therefore often called smoker's lung. The destructions are caused
both by direct toxic action from the irritants and by inflammatory reactions,
often of allergic kind.
The tissue destructions and the clogging of the
lungs are often caused by insoluble substances depsiting themselves in the lungs,
like ashes and coal from the smoke and tiny mineral corns. Toxins in smoke and
pollutants often paralyze the cilia (small waving hears) on the epitelial cells
in the lungs and trachea that normally move such foreign elements upwards and
and out, and this enhances the tendency for glogging by insoluble elements.
Researchers at Columbia University in the
United States claims also to prove a link between the consumption of bacon,
sausages and other meat products that contain nitrates and development of COPD].
Also persistent air pollution can cause COPD, especially if you reside in
environments that contain airborn dust of cilicate minerals and metals.
Hereditary dispositions increases also the risk of developing COPD.
Congenital
anatomical defects such as barrel chest (increased AP diameter), bird's chest (pectus
carinatum) or funnel chest (pectus excavatum) increase therisk of developing
COPD.
Hereiditary disorders, such as lack of the
substance alfa-antitrypsine (A1AD), seems to be a causing fatcor.
One expects that with more than 80% of all COPD cases tobaccoi smoking is the
main reason.
Symptoms and manifestations of COPD
The symptoms by COPD is difficulty of breathing,
for example difficulty by inhaling, exhaling or little volume in the lungs to
fill by air. Abnormal sounds by breathing is also a symptom. There will also
typically occure behavioural changes which have the purpose of compensate for
the decreased oxygen uptake. Increased production of slime is also a symptom.
Other symptoms originate from lack of oxygen in the body, like blue lips and
fatigue.
Patients with COPD often have more or less
frequent exacerbations (also called exacerbations), characterized by increased
breathing difficulty, increased mucus production and coughing, as well as
development of pneumonia (pneumonia).
Treatment of COPD
COPD is a chronic disease with low cirability
when tissue structure has been grossly destroyed. The treatment of COPD patients
involves primarily to curb the further development of the condition , helping
patients compensate for the condition and treating the disease complications.
Ceassation of smoking and of exposure to
iritant polutant is an important measure to stop the condition from further
deteriorating.
Pulmonary physiotherapy and breathing exercises
are often used as a treatment.
Exercise adjusted to the condition can help to
develop extra lung capacity thet compensate for some of the loss by te disease.
By accute worsening of the disease that involve serious lack of oxygen or lung
inflammation or infection must be treated quickly with agents to knoxk down the
infection or inflammation and oxygen therapy.
By serous chronic lack of oxygen, daily oxygen
therapy is often used. However, patients using this therapy must not smoke since
the pure oxygen together with smoking gives a risk for fire. Exaggerated or
poorly adjusted oxygen therapy can also lead to retention of carbon dioxide in
the blood. Some patients get worse by oxygen therapy, even when well controlled,
due to this factor even though they suffer from under-coverage of oxugen.
Medical treatment in the stable pahses of of
COPD is controvesrial, but still commonly used. Since OCPD is a common term for
many individual diseases and since mixted conidtions are common, teratment of
COPD must be individualized and must also be adjusted to the lifestyle of the
patient.
Since COPD in most cases have inflammation as a
component, inhalatory anti-inflammatory agents as steroids are often used.
Treatment with bronchodilators, such as
beta-2-agonists, ipratropiumbromid and alpha-antagonists.
Also slime-loosening drugs are used.
Vaccinations against influenza and pneumococcal
infections is commonly recommanded for patients with COPD.
Althernative drugs that help tissue to generate,
to vigorize rinsing processes inthe airpipe and to ameliorate inflammatory
reactions may also help to compensate for the condition and possibly also help
mend destroyed tissue.
About Emphysema (lung emphysema)
Chronid obstructive pulomary Emphysema (COPD),
often just denoted as emphysema, is a subtype of chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease.
Most people with COPD (chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease) has components of both emphysema and chronic bronchitis, but
the amount of these components ase compared to each other varies.
COPD affects especially people who are older
than 40 years and who smoke. It is a common condition, and it is present in
10-20% of older persons.
Causes and mechanisms of the
disease
Emphysema is usually caused by toxic fumes or smoke,
but also hereditary factors are causal factors. By emphysema the lung connective
tissue and thereby the whole lungs get less elastic.
Many of separation walls in the lung alveoli
are destroyed. This makes the long tissue more flaccid so that the elveoli tend
to collapse during breathing. These walls also contain blood vessels that take
up oxygen from the air. The destruction of the walls therefore also reduce the
capacity of the lungs to take up air sgnificantly.
The symptoms of emphysema
Symptoms include shortness of breath and
expanded chest.
A behaviour symptom often sen is the patiant
sitting leaned foreward over the edge of a table with strained respiration
both in and out while breathing with the lips. This maneure helps to create a
back pressure in the lungs alveolii so that they do not collapse and thus
increase the oxygen uptake.
Blue lips (cyanosis) can also see due to poor
oxygenation. Such patients are also quite tired out in the far advanced
situations.
The treatment of emphysema
It is important to stop the exposure to agents
that cause the condition, like snmoking, if the patient manages to seace the
habit. It may be appropriate to give these patients oxygen. If the patient
smokes, the explosion risk of oxygen may be too large, so that patients who
smoke often do not receive such treatment.
