[size=4][b]Is Bronchitis Bacterial - Bronchitis - Smoking is 90% of the Risk![/b][/size][hr]Introduction Bronchitis is a respiratory disease in which the mucous membrane in the lungs bronchial passages becomes inflamed and usually occurs in the setting of an upper respiratory illness and is observed more frequently in the winter months. It may be short-lived (acute) or chronic, meaning that it lasts a long time and often recurs and can have causes other than an infection. Bronchitis can also occur when acids from your stomach consistently back up into your food pipe, a condition known as gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD. Both adults and children can get it. If you are a smoker and come down with the acute form, it will be much harder for you to recover. If you continue smoking, you are increasing your chances of developing the chronic form which is a serious long-term disorder that often requires regular medical treatment. If you suffer from chronic bronchitis, you are at risk for developing cardiovascular problems as well as more serious lung diseases and infections, and you should be monitored by a doctor.

Most people can treat their symptoms at home. However, if you have severe or persistent symptoms or if you cough up blood,you should see your doctor. The doctor will recommend that you drink lots of fluids, get plenty of rest, and may suggest using an over-the-counter or prescription cough medicine to relieve your symptoms as you recover. If you do not improve, your doctor may prescribe an inhaler to open your airways. If symptoms are severe, the doctor may order a chest x-ray to exclude pneumonia. Developing a gradual interest in Chronic Bronchitis was the basis for writing this article. On reading this, you will gradually get interested in Chronic Bronchitis.

Conclusion Bronchitis is an inflammation of the air passages within the lungs and may be accompanied by signs and symptoms of an upper respiratory infection, including: Soreness and a feeling of constriction or burning in your chest, Sore throat, Congestion, Breathlessness, Wheezing, Slight fever and chills, Overall malaise. Developing a vision on Bronchitis Asthma, we saw the need of providing some enlightenment in Bronchitis Asthma for others to learn more about Bronchitis Asthma.

Symptoms Symptoms lasting up to 90 days are usually classified as acute; symptoms lasting longer, sometimes for months or years, are usually classified as chronic. Signs of Infectious bronchitis generally begins with the symptoms of a common cold: runny nose, sore throat, fatigue, chills, and back and muscle aches. The signs of either type of bronchitis include: Cough that produces mucus; if yellow-green in color, you are more likely to have a bacterial infection, Shortness of breath made worse by exertion or mild activity, Wheezing, Fatigue, Fever -- usually low and Chest discomfort. Additional symptoms include: Frequent respiratory infections (such as colds or the flu), Ankle, feet, and leg swelling, Blue-tinged lips due to low levels of oxygen.

Tobacco and infectious agents are major causes of chronic bronchitis and although found in all age groups, it is diagnosed most frequently in children younger than 5 years. In 1994, it was diagnosed in more than 11 of every 100 children younger than 5 years. Fewer than 5% of people with bronchitis go on to develop pneumonia. Most cases clear up on their own in a few days, especially if you rest, drink plenty of fluids, and keep the air in your home warm and moist. If you have repeated bouts of bronchitis, see your doctor. We tried to create as much matter for your understanding when writing on Infectious Bronchitis. We do hope that the matter provided here is sufficient to you.

Risk Over time, harmful substances in tobacco smoke can permanently damage the airways, increasing the risk for emphysema, cancer, and other serious lung diseases. People at risk for acute bronchitis include: The elderly, infants, and young children, Smokers, People with heart or lung disease. Passive smoke exposure is a risk factor for chronic bronchitis and asthma in adults. Smoking (even for a brief time) and being around tobacco smoke, chemical fumes, and other air pollutants for long periods of time puts a person at risk for developing the disease. Overall, tobacco smoking accounts for as much as 90% of the risk. Secondhand smoke or environmental tobacco smoke increases the risk of respiratory infections, augments asthma symptoms, and causes a measurable reduction in pulmonary function. Malnutrition increases the risk of upper respiratory tract infections and subsequent acute bronchitis, especially in children and older people. Bronchitis play a prominent part in this composition. It is with this prominence that we hope people get to know more about Bronchitis.

The fluoroquinolones are a relatively new group of antibiotics. Fluoroquinolones were first introduced in 1986, but they are really modified quinolones, a class of antibiotics, whose accidental discovery occurred in the early 1960. Wink

Because of their expanded antimicrobial spectrum, third-generation fluoroquinolones are useful in the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia, acute sinusitis and acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis, which are their primary FDA-labeled indications. The third-generation fluoroquinolones include levofloxacin, gatifloxacin, moxifloxacin and sparfloxacin. It is only because that we are rather fluent on the subject of Chronic Bronchitis that we have ventured on writing something so influential on Chronic Bronchitis like this!

[size=large][b]First Generation[/b][/size][hr]The first-generation agents include cinoxacin and nalidixic acid, which are the oldest and least often used quinolones. These drugs had poor systemic distribution and limited activity and were used primarily for gram-negative urinary tract infections. Cinoxacin and nalidixic acid require more frequent dosing than the newer quinolones, and they are more susceptible to the development of bacterial resistance. Although there was a lot of fluctuation in the writing styles of we independent writers, we have come up with an end product on Bronchitis worth reading!

[size=large][b]Second Generation[/b][/size][hr]The second-generation fluoroquinolones have increased gram-negative activity, as well as some gram-positive and atypical pathogen coverage. Compared with first-generation quinolones, these drugs have broader clinical applications in the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections and pyelonephritis, sexually transmitted diseases, selected pneumonias and skin infections.

Fluoroquinolones are approved for use only in people older than 18. They can affect the growth of bones, teeth, and cartilage in a child or fetus. The FDA has assigned fluoroquinolones to pregnancy risk category C, indicating that these drugs have the potential to cause teratogenic or embryocidal effects. Giving fluoroquinolones during pregnancy is not recommended unless the benefits justify the potential risks to the fetus. These agents are also excreted in breast milk and should be avoided during breast-feeding if at all possible. It is only through sheer determination that we were able to complete this composition on Chronic Bronchitis. Determination, and regular time table for writing helps in writing essays, reports and articles.

The fluoroquinolones are a family of synthetic, broad-spectrum antibacterial agents with bactericidal activity. The parent of the group is nalidixic acid, discovered in 1962 by Lescher and colleagues. The first fluoroquinolones were widely used because they were the only orally administered agents available for the treatment of serious infections caused by gram-negative organisms, including Pseudomonas species. When a child shows a flicker of understanding when talking about Chronic Bronchitis, we feel that the objective of the meaning of Chronic Bronchitis being spread, being achieved.

[size=large][b]Fluoroquinolones Disadvantages:[/b][/size][hr]Tendonitis or tendon rupture Multiple drug interactions Not used in children Newer quinolones produce additional toxicities to the heart that were not found with the older agents We have to be very flexible when talking to children about Bronchitis. They seem to interpret things in a different way from the way we see things!

Urinary tract infections (norfloxacin, lomefloxacin, enoxacin, ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, gatifloxacin, trovafloxacin) Lower respiratory tract infections (lomefloxacin, ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, trovafloxacin) Skin and skin-structure infections (ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, trovafloxacin) Urethral and cervical gonococcal infections (norfloxacin, enoxacin, ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, gatifloxacin, trovafloxacin) Prostatitis (norfloxacin, ofloxacin, trovafloxacin) Acute sinusitis (ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, gatifloxacin, moxifloxacin (Avelox), trovafloxacin) Acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis (levofloxacin, sparfloxacin (Zagam), gatifloxacin, moxifloxacin, trovafloxacin) Community-acquired pneumonia (levofloxacin, sparfloxacin, gatifloxacin, moxifloxacin, trovafloxacin) :o.

[size=large][b]Classification of Fluoroquinolones[/b][/size][hr]As a group, the fluoroquinolones have excellent in vitro activity against a wide range of both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The newest fluoroquinolones have enhanced activity against gram-positive bacteria with only a minimal decrease in activity against gram-negative bacteria. Their expanded gram-positive activity is especially important because it includes significant activity against Streptococcus pneumoniae. Remember that it is very important to have a disciplined mode of writing when writing. This is because it is difficult to complete something started if there is no discipline in writing especially when writing on Chronic Bronchitis.

Second-generation agents include ciprofloxacin, enoxacin, lomefloxacin, norfloxacin and ofloxacin. Ciprofloxacin is the most potent fluoroquinolone against P. aeruginosa. Ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin are the most widely used second-generation quinolones because of their availability in oral and intravenous formulations and their broad set of FDA-labeled indications.

[size=large][b]Fluoroquinolones Advantages:[/b][/size][hr]Ease of administration Daily or twice daily dosing Excellent oral absorption Excellent tissue penetration Prolonged half-lives Significant entry into phagocytic cells Efficacy Overall safety Our dreams of writing a lengthy article on Chronic Bronchitis has finally materialized Through this article on Chronic Bronchitis. however, only if you acknowledge its use, will we feel gratitude for writing it!

[size=large][b]Gastrointestinal Effects[/b][/size][hr]The most common adverse events experienced with fluoroquinolone administration are gastrointestinal (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and abdominal pain), which occur in 1 to 5% of patients. CNS effects. Headache, dizziness, and drowsiness have been reported with all fluoroquinolones. Insomnia was reported in 3-7% of patients with ofloxacin. Severe CNS effects, including seizures, have been reported in patients receiving trovafloxacin. Seizures may develop within 3 to 4 days of therapy but resolve with drug discontinuation. Although seizures are infrequent, fluoroquinolones should be avoided in patients with a history of convulsion, cerebral trauma, or anoxia. No seizures have been reported with levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, gatifloxacin, and gemifloxacin. With the older non-fluorinated quinolones neurotoxic symptoms such as dizziness occurred in about 50% of the patients. Phototoxicity. Exposure to ultraviolet A rays from direct or indirect sunlight should be avoided during treatment and several days (5 days with sparfloxacin) after the use of the drug. The degree of phototoxic potential of fluoroquinolones is as follows: lomefloxacin > sparfloxacin > ciprofloxacin > norfloxacin = ofloxacin = levofloxacin = gatifloxacin = moxifloxacin. Musculoskeletal effects. Concern about the development of musculoskeletal effects, evident in animal studies, has led to the contraindication of fluoroquinolones for routine use in children and in women who are pregnant or lactating. Tendon damage (tendinitis and tendon rupture). Although fluoroquinolone-related tendinitis generally resolves within one week of discontinuation of therapy, spontaneous ruptures have been reported as long as nine months after cessation of fluoroquinolone use. Potential risk factors for tendinopathy include age >50 years, male gender, and concomitant use of corticosteroids. Hepatoxicity. Trovafloxacin use has been associated with rare liver damage, which prompted the withdrawal of the oral preparations from the U.S. market. However, the IV preparation is still available for treatment of infections so serious that the benefits outweigh the risks. Cardiovascular effects. The newer quinolones have been found to produce additional toxicities to the heart that were not found with the older compounds. Evidence suggests that sparfloxacin and grepafloxacin may have the most cardiotoxic potential. Hypoglycemia/Hyperglycemia. Recently, rare cases of hypoglycemia have been reported with gatifloxacin and ciprofloxacin in patients also receiving oral diabetic medications, primarily sulfonylureas. Although hypoglycemia has been reported with other fluoroquinolones (levofloxacin and moxifloxacin), the effects have been mild. Hypersensitivity. Hypersensitivity reactions occur only occasionally during quinolone therapy and are generally mild to moderate in severity, and usually resolve after treatment is stopped. We found it rather unbelievable to find out that there is so much to learn on Bronchitis! Wonder if you could believe it after going through it!

Conditions treated with Fluoroquinolones: indications and uses The newer fluoroquinolones have a wider clinical use and a broader spectrum of antibacterial activity including gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic organisms. Some of the newer fluoroquinolones have an important role in the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia and intra-abdominal infections. The serum elimination half-life of the fluoroquinolones range from 3 -20 hours, allowing for once or twice daily dosing.

Quote:All of the fluoroquinolones are effective in treating urinary tract infections caused by susceptible organisms. They are the first-line treatment of acute uncomplicated cystitis in patients who cannot tolerate sulfonamides or TMP, who live in geographic areas with known resistance > 10% to 20% to TMP-SMX, or who have risk factors for such resistance. Writing an article on Chronic Bronchitis was our foremost priority while thinking of a topic to write on. This is because Chronic Bronchitis are interesting parts of our lives, and are needed by us.

[size=large][b]Fourth Generation[/b][/size][hr]The fourth-generation fluoroquinolones add significant antimicrobial activity against anaerobes while maintaining the gram-positive and gram-negative activity of the third-generation drugs. They also retain activity against Pseudomonas species comparable to that of ciprofloxacin. The fourth-generation fluoroquinolones include trovafloxacin (Trovan). Nothing abusive about Bronchitis have been intentionally added here. Whatever it is that we have added, is all informative and productive to you.

The newer fluoroquinolones have a wider clinical use and a broader spectrum of antibacterial activity including gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic organisms. Some of the newer fluoroquinolones have an important role in the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia and intra-abdominal infections. After many hopeless endeavors to produce something worthwhile on Bronchitis, this is what we have come up with. We are very hopeful about this!

[size=large][b]Third Generation[/b][/size][hr]The third-generation fluoroquinolones are separated into a third class because of their expanded activity against gram-positive organisms, particularly penicillin-sensitive and penicillin-resistant S. pneumoniae, and atypical pathogens such as Mycoplasma pneumoniae and Chlamydia pneumoniae. Although the third-generation agents retain broad gram-negative coverage, they are less active than ciprofloxacin against Pseudomonas species.

Because of concern about hepatotoxicity, trovafloxacin therapy should be reserved for life- or limb-threatening infections requiring inpatient treatment (hospital or long-term care facility), and the drug should be taken for no longer than 14 days. You will learn the gravity of Chronic Bronchitis once you are through reading this matter. Chronic Bronchitis are very important, so learn its importance.

Do you know that your drinking water may contain poisons, feces, and toxic metals? If these contaminants are not removed from tap water in your house they will adversely affect your health. Our body is mostly composed of water so it's essential to drink clean water. It's recommended to drink approximately 8 glasses of water to maintain good health.

Quote:Bronchitis is better understood if one knows what is the anatomy of the respiratory system, especially the airways. These are air passages. The throat and the mouth are the beginning of the airway system, then come the bronchi, bronchioles and last the alveoli, which healp the oxygen get into your bloodstream.

Children are more affected by infections of those parts, including bronchitis. In the majority of children, bronchitis is the cause of a viral infection. The treatment in such cases of bronchitis should only be rest, plenty of fluid and a lot of love. The reason why many doctors prescribe antibiotics in cases of bronchitis in children is not already known. Antibiotics are known for treating a bacteria, but in almost ninety of the bronchitis cases this is not the case. A viral infection is the cause of bronchitis, not a bacteria. In adults, especially the one that smoke, things are a little different. Because of the smoke, their bronchi are already damaged and a bronchitis due to a bacteria infection is more probable. Even in these cases, bronchitis will not be treated with antibiotics until you have coughed for at least one to two weeks. So in children, antibiotics should not be a treatment for bronchitis. Time and tide waits for no man. So once we got an idea for writing on Bronchitis Viral, we decided not to waste time, but to get down to writing about it immediately! :o.

The symptoms of chronic bronchitis are much the same as those of acute bronchitis, but chronic bronchitis recurs frequently, and can be treated but not completely cured. Our objective of this article on Natural Bronchitis was to arouse your interest in it. Bring back the acquired knowledge of Natural Bronchitis, and compare it with what we have printed here. Wink

[size=large][b]What are the Symptoms?[/b][/size][hr]There are two types of bronchitis: acute and chronic. Acute bronchitis, the most common type, develops quickly, and though the symptoms can be severe, the infection usually clears up within a few weeks. Typical symptoms include: shortness of breath, tightness in the chest, and coughing accompanied by thick, yellow or green phlegm.

[size=large][b]What are the Natural Remedies?[/b][/size][hr]Avoiding smog, dust, pollen and tobacco smoke are known to be helpful in preventing bronchitis, but if an bronchial infection occurs, there are several natural remedies and treatments worth considering. There has been a gradual introduction to the world of Acute Bronchitis projected in this article. We had done this so that the actual meaning of the article will sink within you.

Chronic bronchitis is medically interpreted as a chronicle respiratory condition characterized by cough and sputum release at least three months per year two years consecutive. The diagnose of chronic bronchitis is only established when other possible respiratory or cardiovascular diseases have been excluded.

No improvements in chronic bronchitis or in its prevention were assembled by the administration of oral antibiotics or corticosteroids, expectorants, chest physiotherapy or even postural drainage. In cases of chronic bronchitis accutisations oral corticosteroids and antibiotics, and especially inhaled bronchodilators have proven to be most useful. The systemic actions of all these substances on cough haven't been carefully studied so they mustn't be indicated on long-term treatment. Also central anti-cough medication like Codeine can only be used for short-term exacerbation of cough, as it blocks the brain idea of coughing and dangerous amounts of sputum can gather inside the bronchia. It was with great optimism that we started out on writing this composition on Bronchitis. Please don't let us lose this optimism.

COPD, controlling symptoms like cough means improving the quality of life for the chronicle patient. The best cure for the chronicle cough in bronchitis is avoiding environments with pollution or smoke as well as personally giving up smoking. The medication treatment for coughing might be administering agonists like the short-acting Ipratropium Bromide by inhalation or Teophylline by oral way, long-action agonists and inhaled corticosteroids. We have actually followed a certain pattern while writing on Asthmatic Bronchitis. We have used simple words and sentences to facilitate easy understanding for the reader.

Time the chronic bronchitis produces a decrease of the respiratory inflow due to the thicken walls and to the pathological changes in pulmonary emphysema. In this case the inflammation has already affected the lungs, and the condition is known as COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). Penetration into the world of Chronic Bronchitis Exacerbations proved to be our idea in this article. Read the article and see if we have succeeded in this or not!

The chronic bronchitis appears as an inflammatory damage of the bronchial tree due to an untreated acute bronchitis or due to chronicle smoking. The chronicle swelling of the bronchial walls and lumen are caused by external agents like smoke, inhaled pollutants, allergens connected with internal factors such as genetic and respiratory infections. We consider that we have only touched the perimeter of information available on Acute Bronchitis. There is still a lot more to be learnt!

Knowing and recognizing the signs and symptoms of both acute and chronic bronchitis are useful for a future need to establish a quick and appropriate diagnose and treatment. Perhaps you may not have been interested in this passage on Asthmatic Bronchitis. In that case, please don't spread this feedback around!
