Received Date: Dec 01, 2023 / Published Date: Dec 31, 2023
Abstract
Bronchiectasis, a chronic respiratory ailment, entails the irreversible dilation and thickening of bronchial tubes, leading to compromised airway clearance and recurrent infections. This abstract offers an insight into the etiology, manifestations, and therapeutic modalities for bronchiectasis. Etiological factors include immunodeficiency, inhalation of irritants, post-infection sequelae, and hereditary predisposition. Symptoms may vary in severity but commonly encompass persistent cough, sputum production, dyspnea, and recurrent respiratory infections. Diagnosis typically involves clinical history, imaging studies (such as high-resolution computed tomography), and pulmonary function tests. Effective management necessitates a comprehensive understanding of the underlying causes, symptom recognition, and implementation of an individualized care regimen. Further research is imperative to explore innovative treatment options and enhance care protocols for this challenging condition.
