| Respiratory diseases and infections refer to those diseases that inhibit the lungs and respiratory system from functioning normally. These conditions negatively impact the tissues and organs which are responsible for exchanging gas in lungs. Respiratory diseases include conditions like influenza, bacterial pneumonia, tuberculosis, lung cancer and acute asthma. Respiratory infections are conditions such as pharyngitis, common cold, laryngotracheitis and epiglottitis. These diseases and infections can be diagnosed by the performance of various tests, such as blood test, chest X-ray, pleura or lung biopsy, pulmonary function test, CT scan, ventilation-perfusion scan and ultrasound scanning. Treatment generally includes antipyretics, decongestants, bed rest and consumption of sufficient fluids. Severe respiratory diseases can be treated with lung transplantation. Preventive measures like quitting smoking, eating well and getting vaccinated can help to reduce the progression of respiratory diseases and infections. This book provides comprehensive insights on respiratory diseases and infections. Also included herein is a detailed explanation of diagnosis and treatment of these medical conditions. This book will serve as a valuable source of reference for graduate and post graduate students. |
