Chronic Bronchitis

Simple chronic bronchitis is a condition in which there is chronic or recurrent increase in the volume of mucoid bronchial secretion sufficient to cause expectoration. Throat cleaners who swallow their sputum should also be included in this definition, but it is not possible to diagnose chronic bronchitis with confidence in the presence of other cardio-pulmonary disease which may themselves give rise to expectoration.

 

Chronic bronchitis may be complicated by infection, giving rise to chronic or recurrent muco-purulent bronchitis in which the sputum is persistently muco-purulent. On the other hand chronic bronchitis must be further complicated by persistent widespread narrowing of the airways at least on expiration which causes airways obstruction. It may then be termed chronic obstructive bronchitis.

 

Causes:

The following may be causes of this condition.

• Cigarette smoking: The death-rate among cigarette smokers is generally high.
• Atmospheric Pollution: Smokes and sulphur dioxide are the major factor in the air pollution.
• Infection: Infection with respiratory Bacteria’s (Mycoplasma pneumonia) and viruses especially H. influenza causes most of the danger.
• In occupations, dust and fumes e,g, in coal mines and steel and flax workers, there is greater prevalence of the disease.
• Chronic bronchitis is more common in men and incidence increases with age.
• Infection increases air way obstruction and poor ventilation and decrease in blood flow, the condition deteriorates further.

 

Clinical picture:

• The onset is extremely insidious; throat clearing and the swallowing may be the only symptoms left on the surface.
• Usually there is expectoration of mucus with cough after waking.
• As age advances, the cough becomes more troublesome. The sputum is at first mucoid, but in many contains black specks of carbon particles from smokes. Later it may become yellow or green.
• Haemoptysis is rare.
• Breathlessness may first become apparent very gradually on exertion and then it may be accompanied by wheeze.
• There may be no physical sign but with increasing mucus secretion, rhonchi may be heard which clear on coug
• Airway obstruction increase and with it wheezing may become persistent.
• Clubbing of fingers is exceptional and should give rise to suspicious that carcinoma of the lung is present.
• Advanced chronic bronchitis leads to respiratory failure. There may be loud closure of pulmonary valve.
• The liver is enlarged and there is peripheral oedema.

 

Diagnosis:

 It is made by examining the respiratory movements of the chest, there rate and rhythm etc.

 

Complication:

Asthma is often associated. In long-standing case, bronchiectasis, emphysema, and ultimately congestive heart failure may appear. From frequent coughing, hernia may develop.

 

Treatment: General

• The patient should be put to bed.
• Dusty, stuffy and damp atmosphere should be avoided.
• During the attack, no fats should be used, and fresh luke-warm water be drunk.
