There are nine subsections in the Respiratory System (J00-J99). Acute Respiratory Infections (J00-J06) is usually an acute or short-term infection, meaning it doesn’t last very long. Some of the symptoms for Acute Respiratory Infection include sore throat, sneezing, low grade fever, nasal congestion, ear pressure, nasal drainage, and cough.
The usual treatment for Acute Respiratory Infections include having to monitor temperature, analgesics, blowing nose periodically, steam and humidifiers, and antihistamines. Some Acute Respiratory Infections include Laryngitis, and Croup. Other diseases of the Upper Respiratory System include Pansinusitis, this is when all the sinuses are …show more content…
Silica dust produced from rock and sand, and coal dust are the most common dusts to cause pneumoconiosis.
Some Suppurative and Necrotic conditions of the Lower Respiratory Tract include Pyothorax, Pneumothorax, and Abscess of the Mediastinum. Pyothorax or also known as Empyema, is where pus gathers in between the lungs and inner surface of the chest wall. Pyothorax (J86.0, J86.1), usually develops after pneumonia. The pus can not be coughed out but drained out by a needle or even surgery. The most common bacteria that causes Pyothorax is Streptococcus Pneumoniae, and Staphylococcus aureus.
