Extractions: Acute bronchitis is the "the acute inflammation of the tracheobronchial tree, generally self-limited and with eventual complete healing and return of function". In most cases bronchitis is relatively mild, however, patients who have chronic heart or lung disease and those who are debilitated may suffer serious consequences from this acute respiratory disorder. Complications that can arise as the result of bronchitis include pneumonia and obstruction of the airway. Acute bronchitis is infectious and it most often occurs during the winter months. Chronic bronchitis affects about 5% of the population - approximately 14 million people in the United States. It is the seventh leading chronic condition in our country. Chronic bronchitis usually occurs in patients older than age 40 and it is more common in women than men. Acute bronchitis occurs in people of all ages, including the elderly and children. All forms of bronchitis caused more than 3,200 deaths in 1995.

(b) For the purposes of this Statement of Principles, (i) "chronic bronchitis" means a respiratory tract disorder characterised by excessive mucus production sufficient to cause cough and sputum production with expectoration for at least three months of each of at least two consecutive years which is not attributable to other respiratory diseases, attracting ICD code 491. The bronchitis may be be present alone or may be accompanied by chronic airways obstruction or limitation, with or without a reversible component. There are four categories of chronic bronchitis: chronic simple bronchitis, chronic mucopurulent bronchitis, asthmatic bronchitis and chronic bronchitis with pulmonary obstruction.

Extractions: Bronchitis is an inflammation of the mucous membrane (lining) of the bronchial tubes. Characteristically, there is an increase mucus production, bronchial swelling, and ciliary dysfunction. Acute bronchitis is usually of a short duration and milder course, while chronic bronchitis is characterized by a distressing, productive, and persistent cough Acute Bronchitis Acute bronchitis is generally caused by infectious agents such as bacteria and viruses and is more prevalent in the winter. Acute bronchitis doesn't last long and has a less severe course. It is often preceded by the common cold. Predisposing factors include exposure to the infectious agent, crowded conditions, fatigue and malnutrition . Symptoms of acute bronchitis are chills, sore throat, malaise, soreness, coughing, and fever. Diagnosis is usually based on the symptoms and signs. Bedrest, fluids (up to 3 or 4 L), antibiotics , and an antipyretic analgesic medication such as aspirin or acetaminophen are used to treat acute bronchitis. Avoid cough suppressants as the cough acts to clear mucus. Other causes of acute irritation and inflammation of the bronchial tubes are the inhalation of chemical (fumes) or physical (dust) agents.

http://www.pulmonologychannel.com/bronchitis/

Extractions: Overview Acute bronchitis is the sudden inflammation of the tracheobronchial tree , which comprises the trachea, or windpipe (tube that leads from the throat to the lungs) and the bronchi (bronchial tubes, air passages of the lungs). It is typically associated with a viral upper respiratory tract infection (URI), such as the common cold, and is usually mild. In patients with chronic lung or heart disease, acute bronchitis is more severe, and can become chronic and progress to pneumonia. Infection causes the mucous membrane of the bronchial tubes to become inflamed and produce thick, sticky mucus. The overproduction of mucus reduces the normal defensive function (called clearing function) of the cilia, the small hairlike structures of the bronchial tubes responsible for moving secretions and debris out of the lungs. Inflammation and accumulated mucus narrow the airways, restrict respiration, and promote bacterial infection. The viruses that cause this condition are often transmitted when they are expelled through coughing, sneezing, and talking. They can also be transmitted through contact with infected drinking glasses and eating utensils.

http://www.lung.ca/copd/anatomy/chronicb.html

Extractions: What Happens With COPD Chronic Bronchitis If you have chronic bronchitis: The bronchi are air passages connecting the windpipe (trachea) with the sacs of the lung (alveoli), where oxygen is taken up by the blood. Bronchitis is an inflammation of the bronchi. This inflammation causes excessive production of mucus and swelling of the bronchial walls. Airflow into and out of the lungs is obstructed. With chronic bronchitis, the mucus cannot be cleared. Instead of helping to clean the lungs, it causes obstruction in the airways. The mucus is thicker and more difficult to cough up. This provides a means for bacteria to settle in the lower airways and increases the risk of infection. Chronic bronchitis is caused mainly by cigarette smoke. It is characterized by: The degree of breathlessness experienced depends on the degree of congestion of the airways and inflammation of the bronchial mucus membranes.
