Diseases of children (pediatrics)

Acute bronchiolitis in children

Acute bronchiolitis is a type of obstructive bronchitis involving the involvement of small bronchi and alveoli, which is characterized by respiratory failure and an abundance of small bubbling rales. Violation of bronchial patency occurs in the terminal section of the bronchial tree. It is observed mainly in children of the first year of life.

Acute obstructive bronchitis in children

Acute obstructive bronchitis is an acute bronchitis that proceeds with bronchial obstruction syndrome. For acute obstructive bronchitis, wheezing is characteristic. Acute bronchiolitis is a type of acute obstructive bronchitis with a lesion of the small bronchi and bronchioles. Bronchiolitis is characterized by respiratory failure and an abundance of fine bubbling rales (children of the first two years of life often suffer).

Acute bronchitis in children

Bronchitis is acute (simple): bronchitis, which proceeds without signs of bronchial obstruction. This inflammatory disease of the bronchi with an increase in bronchial secretion, the main symptoms of which include cough, dry and variegated wet rales, radiologically - the absence of infiltrative or focal changes in the lung tissue; can be observed bilateral enhancement of the pulmonary pattern and the roots of the lungs.

Frequently ill children

In the group of often ill children it is customary to refer children who are prone to frequent respiratory diseases due to transpousal, corrective abnormalities in the body's defense systems and not having persistent organic disorders in them. Frequently ill children are not a nosological form of the disease and not a diagnosis. Depending on the age and social conditions, such children constitute from 15 to 75% of the child population.

Chronic tonsillitis in children

Chronic tonsillitis is a chronic inflammation of the tonsils. There are compensated and uncompensated forms of chronic tonsillitis. The main role in the etiology of chronic tonsillitis belongs to hemolytic streptococcus group A, staphylococcus, adenovirus, fungal flora. In the development of the disease, hereditary predisposition, repeated respiratory infections, etc.,

Adenoiditis in children

Adenoiditis in children is caused by cocco flora, namely: staphylococci, streptococci. Sometimes, in connection with the immunological characteristics of each child, the acute process becomes chronic adenoiditis.

Prevention of bronchial asthma

Prevention of bronchial asthma is a system of complex measures aimed at preventing disease, exacerbating the disease, and reducing adverse effects. There are primary, secondary and tertiary prevention of bronchial asthma.

Treatment of bronchial asthma in children

The greatest clinical and pathogenetic efficacy is currently shown when using IGKS. All preparations of basic anti-inflammatory treatment are taken daily and for a long time. This principle of using anti-inflammatory drugs (basic) allows you to achieve control of the disease and maintain it at the proper level.

Diagnosis of bronchial asthma in children

In children older than 5 years, it is necessary to assess the function of external respiration. Spirometry allows assessing the degree of obstruction, its reversibility and variability, as well as the severity of the course of the disease. However, spirometry allows you to assess the child's condition only at the time of the examination.

Symptoms of bronchial asthma in children

In children, in most cases, there is an atopic form of bronchial asthma. Typical symptoms of bronchial asthma are manifested by asthma attacks, bronchial obstructive syndrome. The main causes of violation of patency of the bronchi are edema and hypersecretion, spasm of bronchial musculature.
