Pneumonia is a lung infection that’s caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi. It ranges from mild to severe. Some cases of pneumonia occur as a complication of another infection, like influenza or COVID-19. It can affect the entirety of your lungs or only certain portions. Your lungs are divided into five lobes — an upper, middle lobe, and lower lobe on the right as well as an upper and lower lobe on the left. While there are many types of Depending on which lobes or areas of your respiratory system are affected, you may be diagnosed with: • Bronchopneumonia. • Lobar pneumonia. This refers to any type of pneumonia that causes congestion or inflammation — a condition known as When bronchopneumonia moves out of its initial stage, it’s usually progressed to lobar pneumonia. Lobar pneumonia has four distinct phases of infection. Pneumonia remains a While lobar pneumonia is usually described as moving through phases, new research suggests that severe illness or even death can occur in any of these stages, and you may not move through these stages in an orderly fashion. It’s also possible for you to be in more than one stage of this progression at a time. Typically, these stages are used to help guide treatment and grade the severity of a lobar pneumonia infection. Below is an explanation of each stage. 1. Congestion This is typically the first stage of infection that occurs after a pneumonia infection has dominated one of the lobes in your lung. The congestion stage typically las...

If your doctor thinks you might have an issue with your Wheezing This high-pitched whistling noise can happen when you’re breathing in or out. It’s usually a sign that something is making your airways narrow or keeping air from flowing through them. Two of the most common causes of • • • • • Gastroesophageal reflux disease ( • • • • • • Vocal cord problems • An object stuck in your voice box or windpipe You can also start wheezing if you smoke or as a side effect of some If you start Crackling (Rales) This is a series of short, explosive sounds. They can also sound like bubbling, rattling, or clicking. You’re more likely to have them when you breathe in, but they can happen when you breathe out, too. You can have fine crackles, which are shorter and higher in pitch, or coarse crackles, which are lower. Either can be a sign that there’s fluid in your air sacs. They can be caused by: • Pneumonia • • • • • Lung infections, like • Asbestosis, a lung disease caused by breathing in • Stridor This harsh, noisy, squeaking sound happens with every breath. It can be high or low, and it’s usually a sign that something is blocking your airways. Your doctor can typically tell where the problem is by whether your stridor sounds happen when you breathe in or out. It’s not always serious, but it sometimes can be a sign of a life-threatening problem that needs medical attention right away. You may get stridor if you have: • Laryngomalacia (softening of the vocal cords in babies) • Paralyze...

Intercostal drain (chest drain / pleural drain) insertion An intercostal drain (also known as a chest drain or pleural drain) is a flexible plastic tube that is inserted through the chest wall into the pleural space. It is used to drain pneumothoraces or effusions from the intrathoracic space. All intercostal drains inserted for pleural effusions should be real time ultrasound guided Indications for intercostal drain insertion (chest drain/pleural drain) • Unresolved primary pneumothorax greater than 2 cm after 2 attempts at aspiration • Secondary pneumothorax greater than 2 cm • Unilateral pleural effusion causing breathlessnesss – insert drain to relieve symptoms and aid diagnosis • Empyema • Bilateral pleural effusions if decompensated despite optimal medical management • Tension pneumothorax after needle decompression • Palliation of breathlessness in malignant pleural effusions • To facilitate pleurodesis Equipment required for an intercostal drain (chest drain/pleural drain) • Ultrasound and operator (for effusions) • Sterile ultrasound sheath • Sterile field • Sterile dressing pack and gloves • 2% Chlorhexadine swabs • Analgesia • 4mls of 1% or 2% Lidocaine • Orange (25G) needle (x1) • Green (19G) needle (x1) • 5ml Syringe (x1) • Seldinger chest drain kit • Chest drain tubing and bottle • Sterile water/saline • Suture kit • Straight needle is ideal • Sterile dressing Contraindications to intercostal drain (chest drain/pleural drain) • Coagulopathy • Haemothorax (can...

Overview Pulmonary edema is a condition caused by too much fluid in the lungs. This fluid collects in the many air sacs in the lungs, making it difficult to breathe. In most cases, heart problems cause pulmonary edema. But fluid can collect in the lungs for other reasons. These include pneumonia, contact with certain toxins, medications, trauma to the chest wall, and traveling to or exercising at high elevations. Symptoms Pulmonary edema symptoms may appear suddenly or develop over time. Symptoms depend on the type of pulmonary edema. Sudden (acute) pulmonary edema symptoms • Difficulty breathing (dyspnea) or extreme shortness of breath that worsens with activity or when lying down • A feeling of suffocating or drowning that worsens when lying down • A cough that produces frothy sputum that may have blood in it • A rapid, irregular heartbeat (palpitations) • Anxiety, restlessness or a feeling that something bad is about to happen • Cold, clammy skin • Wheezing or gasping for breath Long-term (chronic) pulmonary edema signs and symptoms • Awakening at night with a cough or breathless feeling that may be relieved by sitting up • Difficulty breathing with activity or when lying flat • Fatigue • More shortness of breath than usual when you're physically active • New or worsening cough • Rapid weight gain • Swelling in the legs and feet • Wheezing High-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) signs and symptoms HAPE can occur in adults and children who travel to or exercise at high alti...

Bacteria in soil and water cause MAC lung disease in older people or those with weak immune systems or respiratory problems. Most people need several different antibiotics for more than a year to get rid of the infection. MAC lung disease is a type of nontuberculous mycobacterial infection. Unlike tuberculosis (TB), it’s not contagious. Overview What is MAC lung disease? A group of bacteria called Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) causes MAC lung disease. Most people who breathe in or swallow these germs don’t get sick. But some pre-existing conditions can make some people more susceptible to developing a slow-growing infection once MAC enters their airway. When an infection happens, it affects breathing and can be difficult to treat if detected late. MAC lung disease isn’t contagious. What is MAC? MAC bacteria reside naturally in dust, soil and water. They’re a type of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM). This category of microbe causes An NTM infection is different from Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacterium causes TB. Many species of mycobacteria comprise the group we call MAC. But the treatment and approach are the same. How common is MAC lung disease? More than 86,000 Americans have some type of NTM infection. MAC lung disease is the most common, making up nearly 80% of NTM infections. The amount of NTM lung disease has been steadily growing over the last two decades and experts expect this trend to continue. What are the types of MAC infections? MAC infections include: •...

Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a term for a group of conditions that cause inflammation and scarring in your lungs. Symptoms of ILD include shortness of breath and a dry cough. ILD can be caused by medication, radiation therapy, connective tissue diseases or inhaling harmful substances. Lung damage caused by ILD is often irreversible. Overview The most common symptoms of interstitial lung disease are shortness of breath and dry cough, but you may have other symptoms depending on the cause. What is interstitial lung disease? Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a term for a group of over 200 conditions that cause inflammation and scarring in your lungs. ILD damages the tissues between the small air sacs in your lungs (alveoli) and the blood vessels around them. This makes it harder for you to move oxygen out of your lungs and into your body. Interstitial lung disease is also called diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DPLD). What happens when you have interstitial lung disease? When you have interstitial lung disease, parts of your lungs that help oxygen get into your blood and out to your tissues are damaged. Scarring in your lungs makes it hard to breathe, and you might have a chronic cough. Lack of oxygen can make you feel tired all the time. When damage continues to get worse, you can have life-threatening complications, like lung infections and respiratory failure (not enough oxygen or too much carbon dioxide in your body). What are examples of interstitial lung disease...
