About This Presentation

Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "RESPIRATORY TRACT INFECTIONS" by Dr. Mohit Bhatia.

This medical PowerPoint presentation is about respiratory tract infections (RTIs), a group of infections that affect the respiratory tract, including the nose, throat, bronchi, and lungs. They are caused by a variety of viruses, bacteria, and other microorganisms, and can range from mild to severe.

Some common types of RTIs include:

Common cold: This is a viral infection that affects the upper respiratory tract, including the nose and throat. It is typically mild and self-limited, and symptoms include runny nose, sore throat, and cough.
Influenza (flu): This is a viral infection that can affect the upper and lower respiratory tract. It can cause a range of symptoms, including fever, cough, sore throat, body aches, and fatigue.
Pneumonia: This is a bacterial or viral infection that affects the lungs. It can cause symptoms such as cough, fever, shortness of breath, and chest pain.
Bronchitis: This is an infection of the bronchial tubes, which are the airways that lead to the lungs. It can cause symptoms such as cough, chest discomfort, and shortness of breath.

Treatment for RTIs depends on the type and severity of the infection. Mild infections may not require any treatment and will resolve on their own, while more severe infections may require antibiotics or antiviral medications. In general, treatment focuses on relieving symptoms and preventing complications. It is also important to practice good hygiene, such as washing your hands regularly, covering your mouth when coughing or sneezing, and avoiding close contact with others who are sick, in order to prevent the spread of RTIs.

CURB-65score - C (Confusion) = 1 point - U (blood urea nitrogen >19 mg/dL) = 1 point - R (respiratory rate >30 min) = 1 point - B (BP <90/60) = 1 point - 65 (Age ≥65 years) = 1 point Higher the score, greater is the mortality If the score ≤1, outpatient therapy is indicated If the score >1, patient should be hospitalized

BRONCHITIS Inflammation of bronchus, which occurs either as an extension of upper respiratory tract infection such as influenza or may be caused directly by bacterial agents such as Bordetella. Common symptoms - fever, cough, sputum production, and rarely croup- like features
Slide 20-

BRONCHITIS Bacterial agents: B. pertussis B. parapertussis Mycoplasma pneumoniae Chlamydophila pneumoniae Viral agents: Influenza viruses Adenoviruses Rhinoviruses Coronaviruses
Slide 21-

BRONCHIOLITIS Inflammation of the smaller airways (bronchioles) It presents as an acute viral infection that primarily occurs in children less than 2 year Symptoms: Acute onset of wheeze, dyspnea, cough, rhinorrhea, and respiratory distress Respiratory syncytial viruses account for 40–80%

TREATMENT Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) Empiric regimen is determined by presence of co-morbidity and prediction of prognosis by CURB-65 scoring system CAP, hospitalized (if CURB65 score >1): - IV ceftriaxone plus azithromycin or - IV levofloxacin Add vancomycin if CA-MRSA suspected
Slide 31-

CAP, outpatient (if CURB-65 score ≤1): Oral azithromycin or azithromycin + amoxyclav Oral levofloxacin

Hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) Empirical therapy: Gram-negative (e.g. piperacillin-tazobactam or meropenem) + Gram-positive coverage (e.g. vancomycin) Definitive therapy: The empirical treatment should be tailored based on the organism isolated and its
