  • Lung Anatomy
    Lung anatomy Breathing Breathing is an automatic and usually subconscious process which is controlled by the brain. The brain will determine how much oxygen we require and how fast we need to breathe in order to supply our vital organs (brain, heart, kidneys, liver, stomach and bowel), as well as our muscles and joints, with enough oxygen to carry out our normal daily activities. In order for breathing to be effective we need to use our lungs, breathing muscles and blood system efficiently. This leaflet should help you to better understand the process of breathing and how we get the much needed oxygen into our bodies. The lungs You have two lungs, one in the right side and one in the left side of your chest. The right lung is bigger than the left due to the position of the heart (which is positioned in the left side of the chest). Source: Pulmonary Rehabilitation Reference No: 66354-1 Issue date: 13/2/20 Review date: 13/2/23 Page 1 of 5 Both lungs are covered by 2 thin layers of tissue called the pleura. The pleura stop the surface of the lungs rubbing together as we breathe in and out. The lungs are protected by the ribcage. The airways Within the lungs there is a vast network of airways (tubes) which help to transport the oxygen into the lungs and the carbon dioxide out. These tubes branch into smaller and smaller tubes the further they go into the lungs. Page 2 of 5 Trachea (windpipe): This tube connects your nose and mouth to your lungs.

  • Quick Review: Surgical Anatomy of Trachea Tracheal Ligament
    Quick Review: Surgical Anatomy of Trachea tracheal ligament. This attachment makes the larynx move up and down along with the larynx during respiration and swallowing. The length of trachea can be correctly gauzed by measuring the exact distance between lower border of cricoid cartilage and apex of the bifurcation angle (Perelman 1972). It varies with age (Allen, M S 2003). Langova (1946) measured the length of the trachea in 390 cadavers ranging in age from six months of intra-uterine life to twenty years and found that it was 3.1 cm on an average in the newborn, 6 cm in a five year old child, 7 cm at the age of ten and 8.5 cm at the age of 15 years. In adults the length of trachea varies widely from 8.5 to 15 cm. Tehmina Begum et al (2009) measured the length of trachea in adult males in the age range of 20 to 58 years. The mean lengths of the "Larynx, Trachea, and the Bronchi. (Front view.)

  • CARBON MONOXIDE: the SILENT KILLER Information You Should
    CARBON MONOXIDE: THE SILENT KILLER Information You Should Know Carbon monoxide is a silent killer that can lurk within fossil fuel burning household appliances. Many types of equipment and appliances burn different types of fuel to provide heat, cook, generate electricity, power vehicles and various tools, such as chain saws, weed eaters and leaf blowers. When these units operate properly, they use fresh air for combustion and vent or exhaust carbon dioxide. When fresh air is restricted, through improper ventilation, the units create carbon monoxide, which can saturate the air inside the structure. Carbon Monoxide can be lethal when accidentally inhaled in concentrated doses. Such a situation is referred to as carbon monoxide poisoning. This is a serious condition that is a medical emergency that should be taken care of right away. What Is It? Carbon monoxide, often abbreviated as CO, is a gas produced by burning fossil fuel. What makes it such a silent killer is that it is odorless and colorless. It is extremely difficult to detect until the body has inhaled a detrimental amount of the gas, and if inhaled in high concentrations, it can be fatal. Carbon monoxide causes tissue damage by blocking the body’s ability to absorb enough oxygen. In fact, poisoning from this gas is one of the leading causes of unintentional death from poison. Common Sources of CO Kerosene or fuel-based heaters Fireplaces Gasoline powered equipment and generators Charcoal grills Automobile exhaust Portable generators Tobacco smoke Chimneys, furnaces, and boilers Gas water heaters Wood stoves and gas stoves Properly installed and maintained appliances are safe and efficient.

  • The Hazards of Nitrogen Asphyxiation US Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board
    The Hazards of Nitrogen Asphyxiation US Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board Introduction • Nitrogen makes up 78% of the air we breath; because of this it is often assumed that nitrogen is not hazardous. • However, nitrogen is safe to breath only if it is mixed with an appropriate amount of oxygen. • Additional nitrogen (lower oxygen) cannot be detected by the sense of smell. Introduction • Nitrogen is used commercially as an inerting agent to keep material free of contaminants (including oxygen) that may corrode equipment, present a fire hazard, or be toxic. • A lower oxygen concentration (e.g., caused by an increased amount of nitrogen) can have a range of effects on the human body and can be fatal if if falls below 10% Effects of Oxygen Deficiency on the Human Body Atmospheric Oxygen Concentration (%) Possible Results 20.9 Normal 19.0 Some unnoticeable adverse physiological effects 16.0 Increased pulse and breathing rate, impaired thinking and attention, reduced coordination 14.0 Abnormal fatigue upon exertion, emotional upset, faulty coordination, poor judgment 12.5 Very poor judgment and coordination, impaired respiration that may cause permanent heart damage, nausea, and vomiting <10 Inability to move, loss of consciousness, convulsions, death Source: Compressed Gas Association, 2001 Statistics on Incidents CSB reviewed cases of nitrogen asphyxiation that occurred in the US between 1992 and 2002 and determined the following: • 85 incidents of nitrogen asphyxiation resulted in 80 deaths and 50 injuries. • The majority of

Next-generation sequencing techniques have revolutionized the understanding of pulmonary physiology and pathology. Currently, it is clear that the lung is not a sterile place; therefore, the investigation of the participation of the pulmonary microbiome in the presentation, severity, and prognosis of multiple pathologies, such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and interstitial lung diseases, contributes to a better understanding of the pathophysiology. Dysregulation of microbiota components in the microbiome–host interaction is associated with multiple lung pathologies, severity, and prognosis, making microbiome study a useful tool for the identification of potential therapeutic strategies.

  • Clinical Management of Severe Acute Respiratory Infections When Novel Coronavirus Is Suspected: What to Do and What Not to Do
    INTERIM GUIDANCE DOCUMENT Clinical management of severe acute respiratory infections when novel coronavirus is suspected: What to do and what not to do Introduction 2 Section 1. Early recognition and management 3 Section 2. Management of severe respiratory distress, hypoxemia and ARDS 6 Section 3. Management of septic shock 8 Section 4. Prevention of complications 9 References 10 Acknowledgements 12 Introduction The emergence of novel coronavirus in 2012 (see http://www.who.int/csr/disease/coronavirus_infections/en/index. html for the latest updates) has presented challenges for clinical management. Pneumonia has been the most common clinical presentation; five patients developed Acute Respira- tory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). Renal failure, pericarditis and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) have also occurred. Our knowledge of the clinical features of coronavirus infection is limited and no virus-specific preven- tion or treatment (e.g. vaccine or antiviral drugs) is available. Thus, this interim guidance document aims to help clinicians with supportive management of patients who have acute respiratory failure and septic shock as a consequence of severe infection. Because other complications have been seen (renal failure, pericarditis, DIC, as above) clinicians should monitor for the development of these and other complications of severe infection and treat them according to local management guidelines. As all confirmed cases reported to date have occurred in adults, this document focuses on the care of adolescents and adults. Paediatric considerations will be added later. This document will be updated as more information becomes available and after the revised Surviving Sepsis Campaign Guidelines are published later this year (1). This document is for clinicians taking care of critically ill patients with severe acute respiratory infec- tion (SARI).
