We will be going into detail on the following main objectives: 1. Introduction to Bronchiectasis - Acquire foundational knowledge of bronchiectasis, including its definition and epidemiology. - Discuss how bronchiectasis is distinct from other chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases. 2. Pathophysiology of Bronchiectasis - Understand the underlying mechanisms that lead to the formation and progression of bronchiectasis. - Explore the role of recurrent infections, inflammation, and structural abnormalities in perpetuating the disease. 3. Clinical Manifestations - Learn to recognize the various clinical presentations of bronchiectasis, such as chronic cough, purulent sputum production, and recurrent respiratory infections. - Discuss physical examination findings and their significance. 4. Diagnostic Criteria and Tools - Familiarize yourself with current diagnostic criteria based on the latest clinical guidelines. - Examine the roles of imaging studies, particularly high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT), and pulmonary function tests in the diagnostic process. 5. Management Strategies - Discuss evidence-based approaches to manage bronchiectasis, including pharmacological treatments like antibiotics, bronchodilators, and anti-inflammatory agents. - Explore non-pharmacological interventions like chest physiotherapy and pulmonary rehabilitation. 6. Treatment of Acute Exacerbations - Understand the best practices for treating acute exacerbations, from hospitalization criteria to the use of intravenous antibiotics. 7. Complications and Prognosis - Gain insight into the possible complications of bronchiectasis, such as respiratory failure, cor pulmonale, hemoptysis, and recurrent pulmonary infections. - Understand the prognostic factors that influence disease progression and outcomes.
