From 1976–1982, 3,000 transnasal upper airway evaluations (TNUA) have allowed the direct visualization of upper airway structures in a natural, state without significant anatomical or physiological distortion. As a result, TNUA in experienced hands, is thought to be safe and the procedure of choice in evaluating upper airway obstruction in children.

A 2-year-old boy presented to the hospital with a history of increased work of breathing over the 1 month following an upper respiratory infection. His medical history was significant for palmoplantar callouses and painful subungual hypertrophy of the fingers andtoes, forwhichhehadundergonematricectomy.Hismotherand 3 older siblings also had subungual ...

Mortality and Airway Obstruction
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1984Sir .—Liston et al alerted physicians caring for children that bacterial tracheitis may be an important cause of acute, infectious upper-airway obstruction. 1 Some conclusions drawn by the authors were not supported by their data. The report included the following statements. Pneumothorax occurred in two of nine children with bacterial tracheitis who

Abstract Central airway obstruction is a problem facing all medical and surgical subspecialists caring for patients with chest diseases. The incidence of this disorder appears to be rising because of the epidemic of lung cancer; however, benign causes of central airway obstruction are being seen more frequently as well.

Obstruction of Pulmonary Airway
Postgraduate Medicine, 1969Nearly all cases of bronchial obstruction in early childhood are due to aspiration of a foreign body or mucus plugging. A two year old child was admitted to an emergency ward after aspiration of a piece of meat. However, an omission in the history resulted in an incorrect diagnosis of infectious asthma, which delayed proper treatment.

A large number of diseases may present with respiratory distress. In adults, upper airway obstruction (UAO) is relatively rare. Consequently, UAO may initially be overlooked in the differential diagnosis of the dyspneic patient. Because it may progress rapidly, delays or errors in diagnosis can be critical.

Airway Obstruction in Achalasia
Chest, 1980A man with a mediastinal mass shadow detected on chest roentgenogram was diagnosed as having achalasia by barium swallowing study. Megaesophagus caused by achalasia produced airway obstruction. Maximum expiratory-inspiratory flow volume curve identified that peak flow rate decreased in early expiration, and the ratio of expired to inspired flow at 50 ...

The airways in infants and children are anatomically different from adults, thus predisposing them to more acute upper airway obstruction. The causes of upper airway obstruction may be infective or non-infective. The presence of dysphonia, dysphagia, abnormal respiratory pattern, cough and abnormal posture suggests upper airway obstruction. The general

IN RECENT years, great progress has been made in our understanding of the chronic obstructive pulmonary syndromes. It now appears that these diseases begin in the periphery of the lung and interfere with the function of the small airways located there long before they produce diagnostically interpretable symptoms or compromise results of the standard ...
