INHALATION PULMONARY SCINTIPHOTOGRAPHY USING PERTECHNETATE
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1971Inhalation lung scintiphotos of good quality with a minimum of bronchial deposition have been obtained using a simple, inexpensive nebulizing system and technetium in the pertechnetate form.The method described is a rapid means of obtaining useful information regarding airway patency with no radiopharmaceutical preparation.Pertechnetate is a suitable ...

Inhaled prostacyclin in the treatment of pulmonary hypertension
European Journal of Pediatrics, 1999Pulmonary hypertension can occur primarily with an unknown aetiology or secondary in association with cardiac or pulmonary disorders such as congenital diaphragmatic hernia, idiopathic respiratory distress syndrome, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), congenital heart disease with malformation of the pulmonary blood vessels, chronic obstructive

Pulmonary Distribution of an Inhaled Radioaerosol in Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Radiology, 1976Pulmonary distribution of an inhaled radioaerosol was analyzed in 20 cases of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and 8 of other OPD. Nonciliary/ciliary partition of the distribution correlated with the severity of airway obstruction and approximated 3:1 in mild and 1:3 in very severe obstruction.

Age, Smoking Inhalation, and Pulmonary Function
Archives of Environmental Health: An International Journal, 1975This study examined the relative effects of age and smoking on pulmonary function. Smoking was measured by six smoking variables, taken singly and as a composite. Subjects were 1,516 male participants in the Normative Aging Study. A stepwise multiple regression with vital capacity (VC) and forced expiratory volume at one second (FEV1.0) as the criteria

BMJ, 1909 Inhaled selective pulmonary vasodilators
Seminars in Anesthesia, Perioperative Medicine and Pain, 1999p ULMONARY hypertension (PH) is a feature of many cardiac and pulmonary diseases, such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn, and left ventricular failure. Increased pulmonary pressures are secondary to multiple factors, including pulmonary vasoconstriction, pulmonary vascular hypervolemia ...

Inhalation Therapy for Pulmonary Tuberculosis
2014Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the worst infectious diseases worldwide, and the pathogen causing it, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), has infected one-third of the population in the world. The recent increase in the emergence of drug-resistant strains of Mtb is threatening public health in developing countries as well as in developed ones.

Pulmonary Drug Delivery: Medicines for Inhalation
2009Mankind has inhaled substances for medical and other reasons for thousands of years, notably resulting in the cultural manifestations of tobacco and opium smoking. Over the course of time concepts of pulmonary application, including inhalation devices and drug formulations, have been and still are being continuously developed.

Pulmonary effects of inhaled ultrafine particles
International Archives of Occupational and Environmental Health, 2000Recent epidemiological studies have shown an association between increased particulate urban air pollution and adverse health effects on susceptible parts of the population, in particular the elderly with pre-existing respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. Urban particles consist of three modes: ultrafine particles, accumulation mode particles (which

Pulmonary toxicity of inhaled and intravenous talc
Toxicology Letters, 1990Talc (magnesium silicate) is a widely used, generally considered benign substance. It is principally used as an inert filler material in drug tablets or as a drying ingredient in baby powders. However, in both cases inappropriate use can lead to severe pulmonary toxicological responses.
