When we breathe, air first circulates to the bronchi, followed by the bronchioles and terminal bronchioles, which opens up at the end to create an alveolar duct from which air sacs derive. Each lung has over 300 million alveoli, which gives a total surface area of 70 meters squared.

Hiccups consist in intermittent spasmodic contractions of the diaphragm and accessory muscles of inspiration that causes the sudden closure of the glottis. It’s something that all human beings experience, but doesn’t normally have any negative repercussions on health.

The body produces immunological factors that provide appropriate responses to invasions from intruders, whether they be bacteria, virus, fungi, or parasites. They do so by an intricate system of mediators, identifiers, destroyers, and other cellular and biochemical signals, many of which are all involved in the same defensive processes.

A chest tube placement is used to extract (drain) any substance that has penetrated the pleural cavity to relieve the pressure and help re-expand and inflate the lungs back up again before the lung collapse worsens.

A tracheostomy is a medical intervention in which a tube is introduced inside the body to provide a breathing airway. This process is achieved through an incision made on the air passage from the throat to the lungs. In some cases, a tracheostomy is performed when there is an obstruction in the respiratory tract.

There is a misunderstanding when it comes to the benefits of nebulizers and Metered Dose Inhalers on their effectiveness and practicality. Treatments with nebulizers are not more beneficial or stronger than those administered with an MDI many people may have heard.

Even though the air we breathe is 22% oxygen, some people might require additional concentrations of oxygen. People with different types of pulmonary issues like emphysema, cancer and certain cardiac diseases may simply necessitate extra oxygen. There are various systems of oxygen supply for home use, including oxygen tanks.
