Airway obstruction due to a laryngeal polyp following insertion of a laryngeal mask airway
JA Clinical Reports, 2018 Background Laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion contributes to airway protection in patients with a laryngeal tumor around the glottis. There has been no report of LMA insertion itself exacerbating airway obstruction in such patients.

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Type 2 inflammation dominates eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (eCRS) and adult onset asthma. IL‐4, ‐5, and ‐13 are prominent disease mediators. Disease control can be achieved with biologic therapies. However, despite some patients entering remission, others experience poor control. Aim We aimed to describe eCRS patients treated

Non-local impact of distal airway constrictions on patterns of inhaled particle deposition [PDF]
arXivAirway constriction and blockage in obstructive lung diseases cause ventilation heterogeneity and create barriers to effective drug deposition. Established computational particle-deposition models have not accounted for these impacts of disease. We present a new particle-deposition model that calculates ventilation based on the resistance of each ...

Prenatal detection of congenital high airway obstruction syndrome with encephalocele
Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging, 2016 Congenital high airway obstruction syndrome (CHAOS) causes secondary morphological changes which can be detected on ultrasound. Here we report a case of congenital high airway obstruction with an occipital encephalocele detected at 23 weeks of gestation.

Dynamics of liquid plugs in prewetted capillary tubes: from acceleration and rupture to deceleration and airway obstruction [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 The dynamics of individual liquid plugs pushed at constant pressure head inside prewetted cylindrical capillary tubes is investigated experimentally and theoretically. It is shown that, depending on the thickness of the prewetting film and the magnitude of the pressure head, the plugs can either experience a continuous acceleration leading to a ...

Elexacaftor–Tezacaftor–Ivacaftor Improves Sinonasal Outcomes in Young Children With Cystic Fibrosis
International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Severe chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a near universal manifestation of cystic fibrosis. Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) is an oral, small molecule, highly effective Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) corrector–potentiator drug.

Prevalence and severity of airway obstruction in an Italian adult population
Monaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2005 Background. This study sets out to estimate the prevalence and the degree of severity of bronchial obstruction in an adult population with three different diagnostic criteria: the European Respiratory Society (ERS), the American Thoracic Society (ATS ...
