What is anthrax?
Anthrax – an infectious disease of the groups of zoonoses, characterized by fever, lesions of the lymphatic system, intoxication, and flows in the form of skin, rarely intestinal, pulmonary, and septic forms. Is caused by anaerobic bacteria – a fixed, large size, stick with chopped ends. Outside the human and animal forms spores, which are very resistant to physical and chemical effects. Channel anthrax – sick or dead animals. Infection of Human contact often carried out by (for cutting animal carcasses, processing of animal skins, etc.) and by eating food contaminated with spores, as well as water, soil, furs, etc.

Pneumonia chronic
Pneumonia chronic – chronic nonspecific bronchopulmonary process characterized by irreversible morphological changes in the form of deformation of the bronchus and pneumosclerosis in one or more segments and accompanied by a recurrence of inflammation in lung tissue and (or) bronchus.

Pneumonia eosinophilic
Pneumonia eosinophilic expressed in the form of a rapidly disappearing infiltrates (Loeffler infiltration) in the lung against the background of eosinophilia, accompanied by varying degrees of severity of clinical signs are usually a reaction to the larval stage of nematode (roundworm, toksokary), Aspergillus, and other allergens. Severe cases require steroid therapy along with etiotropic treatment for fungal infection.

What is pulmonary edema? Causes of pulmonary edema.
It may be caused by various reasons. Myocardial infarction caused by heart failure and arising in connection with the violation of the outflow of blood from the pulmonary blood vessels. In patients with essential hypertension or anemia occurs mainly due to excitation of the autonomic nervous system that leads to a redistribution of blood in the body and its accumulation in the pulmonary system. The same thing happens with injuries and diseases of the brain. In uremia, poisoning and toxic substances (chlorine, phosgene) in the development of pulmonary edema huge role played by the increased permeability of the walls of pulmonary capillaries. Whatever the cause of pulmonary edema leads to disruption of breathing and hypoxia. One of the first symptoms – shortness of rapid breathing (dyspnea), patient anxiety, increased heart rate. In the future, breathing becomes hoarse and even choking, coughing appears to release a white or pink frothy sputum buy Revatio online. This foam prevents the flow of air in the alveoli of the lungs, the patient develops anoxia, one of the signs of which – cyanosis of the skin and mucous membranes (cyanosis).

Acute Cor Pulmonale
What is cor pulmonale?
Condition overload hypertrophy and right heart that occurs in chronic nonspecific lung disease, pulmonary embolism, and so on. The basis – increasing the pressure in the lesser circulation. There are acute (within a few hours, days), subacute (within a few weeks, months) and chronic (many years) the development of cor pulmonale buy Mevacor. By his lead: diseases affecting the lung tissue (chronic obstructive bronchitis, emphysema, pneumosclerosis, pulmonary infarction, extensive pneumonia), and changes of the musculoskeletal system, providing ventilation (severe curvature of the spine), the primary lesions of pulmonary vessels.
Acute Cor Pulmonale
Symptoms and course of cor pulmonale.
In acute and subacute cor pulmonale – symptoms typical of infarction pneumonia. Are growing signs of right heart failure, swelling of neck veins, increased liver. In chronic cor pulmonale marked dyspnea, cyanosis, increasing the number of red blood cells, hemoglobin in peripheral blood, slowing ESR, buy Revatio. Recognition is carried out on the basis of clinical data, changes in electrocardiogram and chest radiograph.

Pulmonary infarction
What is pulmonary infarction?
Disease, developing as a result of clot (thrombosis) in the pulmonary artery, or sliding it from the peripheral veins (thromboembolism). By that predispose surgery, postpartum, heart failure, fractures of long tubular bones, malignant tumors, prolonged bed rest. Closure of thrombotic vascular clearance leads to increased pressure in the pulmonary artery and contributes to hemorrhage in the lung tissue. Joining the bacterial infection causes inflammation of the site (pneumonia).
Pulmonary infarction
The symptoms and course of pulmonary infarction.
Identify the caliber, the location and number of closed thrombotic vessels, baseline lung diseases and heart. The most frequent symptoms: shortness of breath suddenly appeared (suddenly increased), chest pain, pallor tinged with ashy skin, cyanosis, a violation of heart rate (frequency, ciliary arrhythmia, extrasystoles), decrease blood pressure, changes of the nervous system, increase body temperature, cough with mucous, or bloody sputum, hemoptysis. You may heard the noise of friction pleura, melkopuzyrchatye bubbling rale on a limited area.

Idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis
What is idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis?
The disease is characterized by bleeding in alveolus with subsequent fibrosis and thickening mezhalveolyarnyh partitioning, accumulation gemosiderofagov. It autoimmune genesis, but the cause is not clear autoagressi; a part of the patients revealed a high level of pretsipitinov to cow’s milk.
Idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis
The clinical picture.
Start gradually. Note the crisis occurring with obstructive or pneumonic symptoms, and accompanied by severe anemia. Usually heard melopuzyrchatye bubbling rale. In the blood - retikulotsitoz, normoblastoz, mikrosferotsitoz, erythrocyte sedimentation rate increase in the resistance of normal erythrocytes, and usually negative direct test Kumbsa. X-ray usually reveal numerous miliary shadows, more abundant in the middle zones (
