Symptoms of catarrhal respiratory syndrome

Clinical forms of catarrhal-respiratory syndrome.

• Acute rhinitis - inflammation of the nasal mucosa. Characteristic symptoms: sneezing, mucus from the nose, violation of nasal breathing. The outflow of mucus on the back wall of the pharynx causes a cough.
• Pharyngitis is an inflammation of the pharyngeal mucosa. It is characterized by sudden sensations of perspiration and dryness in the throat, as well as soreness in swallowing.
• Tonsillitis - local changes in the palatine tonsils bacterial (more often streptococcal) and viral etiology. Characterized by intoxication, hyperemia and swelling of the tonsils, palatine arch, tongue, back of the pharynx, loose overlaps in the lacunae.
• Laryngitis is an inflammation of the larynx with the involvement of vocal cords and subglottic space. The first symptoms are dry barking cough, hoarseness of voice.
• Epiglottitis - an inflammation of the epiglottis with a characteristic pronounced violation of breathing.
• Tracheitis is an inflammatory process of the mucosa of the trachea. Symptoms: sadness behind the sternum, dry cough.
• Bronchitis - the defeat of bronchi of any caliber. The main symptom - cough (at the beginning of the disease dry, a few days wet with an increasing amount of sputum). Sputum often has a mucous nature, but on the 2nd week can acquire a greenish tint due to an impurity of fibrin. Cough persists for 2 weeks and longer (up to 1 month for adenovirus, respiratory syncytial-viral, mycoplasmal and chlamydia nature).

The main bacterial pathogens ORZ - pneumotypic conditionally pathogenic and pathogenic microorganisms.

Clinical syndromes in the defeat of respiratory tract viral etiology

Pathogens	The main syndromes of the respiratory tract
Influenza viruses	Tracheitis, rhinopharyngitis, bronchitis, cereal with fever in children
Parainfluenza viruses	Laryngitis, rhinopharyngitis. Spurious croup
Respiratory syncytial virus	Bronchitis, bronchiolitis
Adenoviruses	Pharyngitis, tonsillitis, rhinitis
Rhinovirus	Rhinitis, rhinopharyngitis
ECHO viruses	Rhinopharyngitis
Coxsackie A virus	Pharyngitis, herpangina
The Coxsackie Virus	Pharyngitis
Human coronaviruses	Rinofaringitis, bronchitis
Coronavirus SARS	Bronchitis, bronchiolitis, respiratory distress syndrome
HSV	Pharyngitis

Clinical syndromes in the defeat of the respiratory tract of bacterial etiology

Causative agent	The main syndromes of the respiratory tract
Streptococcus pneumoniae	Otitis, rhinitis, sinusitis, pneumonia
Staphylococcus haemolyticus	Tonsillitis
Haemophilus influenzae (encapsulated form)	Epiglottitis, rhinitis, sinusitis, pneumonia, bronchitis
Haemophilus influenzae (non-capsular form)	Sinusitis, otitis media
Moraxella catarrhalis	Otitis, sinusitis (mainly in patients who had previously taken antibiotics). Bronchitis
Staphylococcus aureus	Otitis, sinusitis, tonsillitis, pneumonia
Mycoplasma pneumoniae	Rinofaringitis, bronchitis
Chlamidia trachomatis	Bronchitis, pneumonia
Chlamidia pneumoniae	Pharyngitis, tonsillitis, bronchitis
Chlamidia psittaci	Pneumonia, bronchitis
Legionella pneumophila	Bronchitis, bronchiolitis. Pneumonia
Neisseria meningitidis	Nasopharyngitis

ORZ can be caused by gram-negative bacteria: Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterococcus spp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

The catarrhal respiratory syndrome is revealed in cases of coxial cells and other rickettsiosis, typhoid fever.

Pneumocystis (Pneumocystis carinii) cause bronchitis, pneumonia. Rarely does fungal infection of the respiratory tract occur in patients with cellular immunodeficiency (both primary and medically induced immunosuppression).
