Bronchiectasis is a common but neglected chronic lung disease. Most epidemiological data are limited to cohorts from Europe and the USA, with few low-income middle-income countries. We therefore aimed describe characteristics, severity of disease, microbiology, treatment patients bronchiectasis in India.The Indian registry multicentre, prospective, observational cohort study. Adult (≥18 years) CT-confirmed were enrolled 31 centres across India. Patients due cystic fibrosis or traction...
Background Identifying risk factors for poor outcomes can help with stratification and targeting of treatment. Risk mortality exacerbations have been identified in bronchiectasis but almost exclusively studied European North American populations. This study investigated the outcome a large population patients enrolled India. Methods The Multicentre Bronchiectasis Audit Research Collaboration (EMBARC) Respiratory Network India (EMBARC-India) registry is prospective observational adults...
Influenza, a common cause of acute respiratory infections, is an important health problem worldwide, including in India. Influenza associated with several complications; people comorbidities and the elderly are at higher risk for such complications. Moreover, influenza virus constantly changes genetically, thereby worsening therapeutic outcomes. Vaccination effective measure prevention influenza. Despite availability global guidelines on vaccination adults, country-specific based regional...
Similar to the global scenario, pneumococcal diseases are a significant health concern in India. Pneumococcal occur frequently among adults and largely preventable through vaccines. Globally, several guidelines recommendations available for vaccination adults. However, owing wide variations disease burden, regulatory landscape, health-care system India, such cannot be unconditionally implemented throughout country. To address these gaps, Indian Chest Society National College of Physicians...
There has been an ever-expanding list of isolation organisms in the genus Mycobacterium. Leprosy and tuberculosis are specific diseases caused by mycobacteria; there now several other mycobacteria that cause human can be widely found environment. These called as nontuberculous (NTM) or than tubercle bacilli (MOTT) atypical mycobacteria. They various infections lungs, lymph glands, skin, wounds, bone. may also produce disseminated disease, especially immunocompromised. Various molecular,...
<b>A Likert score based on chest radiography of symptomatic patients #COVID19 can be used as a diagnostic and triaging tool in the emergency room to help physicians identify with likelihood COVID-19 triage them appropriately</b>https://bit.ly/3gDxzDK
ABSTRACT Medical Thoracoscopy (MT) is commonly performed by respiratory physicians for diagnostic as well therapeutic purposes. The aim of the study was to provide evidence-based information regarding all aspects MT, both a tool and aid pulmonologists across India. consensus-based guidelines were formulated based on multistep process using set 31 questions. A systematic search published randomized controlled clinical trials, open labelled studies, case reports from electronic databases, like...
<b>Introduction:</b> Bronchiectasis is a heterogeneous disease. Previous phenotyping of this disease has been based solely on 5 European databases which do not really account for the remaining world population. <b>Aims and Objectives:</b> This study looked at Indian EMBARC Registry to try identify discrete patient groups with different clinical biological characteristics. <b>Methodology:</b> Principal component cluster analyses were performed using demographics, co-morbidities, clinical,...
<b>Introduction:</b> Mucoepidermoid tumors (METs) are a rare type of primary lung tumours arising from bronchial glands and account for less than 1% all tumors. METs slow-growing can be asymptomatic long time. The most common symptoms cough, dyspnea, hemoptysis. diagnosed by bronchoscopy biopsy, the definitive diagnosis is made histopathological examination. <b>Case Report:</b> We present case 13 year old male patient who presented with persistent fever cough past 1 month. He had no...

<b>Introduction:</b> Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a severe allergic inflammatory response to Aspergillus fumigatus and often an unrecognized cause for bronchiectasis. <b>Aims Objectives:</b> In this study, we aim examine the burden of ABPA in India bronchiectasis registry, screening test perform phenotype characterization. <b>Material Methods:</b> Among 2197 cases enrolled Indian examined number patients screened proportion positive cases. We also looked phenotypic...
<b>Introduction:</b> Bronchiectasis is a chronic disease and it more complicated with coexisting condition of respiratory disorders such as COPD asthma hampering the quality life (QoL). <b>Aim Objectives:</b> To assess QoL patients bronchiectasis COPD/asthma. <b>Method:</b> Total 190 completed QoL-B questionnaire in EMBARC India registry. <b>Results:</b> 91 (47.9%) were only (mean age 55.23 ±14.62), 40 (21.1%) 48.03 ± 14.88 yrs) 59 (31.1%) 59.32 15.72 yrs). Significantly high score was...
<b>Introduction:</b> Galactomannan (GM) is a component of Aspergillus cell wall. The usefulness GM levels in body fluids still unclear. We evaluated the utility Bronchoalveolar Lavage (BAL) testing patients with suspected pulmonary Aspergillosis. <b>Aims and Objectives:</b> To assess BAL assay diagnosis infections <b>Methods:</b> 90 consecutive suspicion Aspergillosis, based on pre-defined clinic-radiological parameters, were included our study. samples obtained via fibre optic bronchoscopy...
<b>Introduction:</b> Limited data exists regarding the burden and management of rare diseases like pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis (PAM) from developing countries. Improved access to lung transplantation in India recent times has proved be an advantage these patients. <b>Methods:</b> We present 3 cases PAM, two them had severe disease ended up undergoing bilateral transplantation. The third patient, a young female, relatively milder is currently on follow up. <b>Cases:</b> first patient...
