Background: Although the FACED score has demonstrated a great prognostic capacity in bronchiectasis, it does not include number or severity of exacerbations as separate variable, which is important natural history these patients. Objective: Construction and external validation new index, E-FACED, to evaluate predictive mortality. Methods: The was constructed on basis complete cohort for construction original score, while undertaken with six cohorts from three countries (Brazil, Argentina,...
ABSTRACT Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is the leading cause of death worldwide. Despite vast diversity respiratory microbiota, Streptococcus pneumoniae remains most prevalent pathogen among etiologic agents. significant decrease in mortality rates for lower tract infections recent decades, CAP ranks third as a Brazil. Since latest Guidelines on from Sociedade Brasileira de Pneumologia e Tisiologia (SBPT, Brazilian Thoracic Association) were published (2009), there have been major...
A pneumonia adquirida na comunidade mantém-se como a doença infecciosa aguda de maior impacto médico-social quanto à morbidade e custos relacionados ao tratamento. Os grupos etários mais suscetíveis complicações graves situam-se entre os extremos idade, fato que tem justificado adoção medidas prevenção dirigidas esses estratos populacionais. Apesar do avanço no conhecimento campo da etiologia fisiopatologia, assim aperfeiçoamento dos métodos propedêuticos terapêuticos, inúmeros pontos...
To examine the trends in overall COPD mortality, as well in-hospital morbidity and mortality due to COPD, Brazil, validate predictive models.This was a population-based study with time-series analysis of cause-specific data for individuals ≥ 40 years age, obtained from national health information systems 2000-2016 period. Morbidity rates, stratified by gender age group, were calculated same We used regression analyses temporal double exponential smoothing our models 2017.Over period, rates...
OBJETIVO: Determinar a eficácia do uso volume expiratório forçado nos primeiros seis segundos (VEF6) como substituto da capacidade vital forçada (CVF) na triagem diagnóstica doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica (DPOC) através comparação entre as medidas relação VEF1/CVF e VEF1/VEF6. MÉTODOS: No ano de 2003, durante o Dia Mundial DPOC, realizamos uma campanha DPOC. Os participantes respondiam ao questionário clínico projeto Global Initiative for -Obstructive Lung Disease aqueles que...
Both FACED and E-FACED scores have shown good short-term prognostic value for predicting mortality in bronchiectasis http://ow.ly/albl30i11bv.
ABSTRACT Objective: To determine the prevalence of alpha 1-antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency (AATD), as well allele frequency, in COPD patients Brazil. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study involving 926 40 years age or older, from five Brazilian states. All underwent determination AAT levels dried blood spot (DBS) samples by nephelometry. Those with DBS ≤ 2.64 mg/dL serum levels. < 113 genotyping. In case conflicting results, SERPINA1 gene sequencing performed. Results: Of studied, 85 had...

To determine the main causes of hemoptysis and to classify this symptom, in terms amount blood expectorated, patients hospitalized at a referral hospital for pulmonology.The study included 50 with admitted pulmonology ward general city Recife, Brazil, between July 2005 February 2006. The data interest were analyzed compared those literature.The most common cause was infection--in 39 (78%)--mostly related tuberculosis sequelae or active tuberculosis. Regarding severity hemoptysis, moderate...
Introduction This study evaluated the performance of an in-house nested-PCR system for detection Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex in pleural fluid, blood and urine samples from effusion patients by health services physicians Pernambuco, Brazil. Methods A prospective double-blind with 37 hospitalized both sexes, aged over 15, was used to investigate diagnosis effusion. The criteria define cases included demonstration bacillus biological smear or culture a granulomatous finding...
Community-Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) is a major public health problem. In Brazil it has been estimated that 2,000,000 people are affected by CAP every year. Of those, 780,000 admitted to hospital, and 30,000 have death as the outcome. This an open-label, non-comparative study with purpose of evaluating efficacy, safety, tolerability levels IV azithromycin (IVA) ceftriaxone (IVC), followed oral (OA) for treatment inpatients mild severe CAP. Eighty-six patients (mean age 56.6 ± 19.8) were...
O derrame infeccioso, uma das causas mais freqüentes de pleural obervados na pratica clinica, é um sinal complicação do quadro pneumônico. reconhecimento precoce parapneumônico fundamental para determinar a melhor forma tratamento, reduzindo o risco morbidade e mortalidade. A evolução dos métodos diagnósticos experiência diversos estudos publicados literatura permitiram estabelecer diretrizes baseadas em evidencias que orientam conduta abordagem terapêutica empiema.

Introdução Na oxigenoterapia hiperbárica (OHB), se oferta oxigênio a 100%, dentro de uma câmara em pressão maior que da atmosférica. Com pandemia causada pelo novo coronavírus e elevada morbimortalidade, tratamentos alternativos têm sido propostos OHB seria potencialmente benéfica pois os altos níveis diluído no sangue são conhecidos por apresentarem efeitos antiinflamatórios teoricamente poderia tratar hipoxemia nas manifestações graves Covid-19.Objetivo Descrever sobre o uso como adjuvante...
