In this clinical situation it is also necessary to include the desires, values and choices of patients. The problem is more complex in the critical episodes, where the patients are incapable to make decisions. The instruments that allow incapable patients to represent themselves, the kind of patients who could benefit from its use, and the Spanish legislation on the matter, are presented in the first part of the work. The paper goes on to explain how to apply advance directives to the case of COPD. The article concludes that the appropriate use of advance directives and advanced care planning increases the quality of decisions at the end of the life of the patients wit...

The decrease in the K(CO) observed in asymptomatic carriers of the mutation suggests a certain level of pulmonary vascular changes, therefore its measurement could be useful in the familial study of FPAH.

The bronchial biopsy confirmed that it was a typical bronchial carcinoid and the octreoscan showed a single focus of high uptake coinciding with this lesion. A bronchoplastic (sleeve) was performed with extirpation of 3 bronchial rings, which also demonstrated that it was a typical carcinoid.

There are no previous reports on the use of the SILS system in VATS for spontaneous pneumothorax. This system also allows us to obtain a more cosmetic surgical result, as well as decreasing the mean post-operative hospital stay and the need for analgesics to improve the post-operative pain.

The respiratory function tests showed a restrictive pattern with desaturation on effort and a biopsy using videothorascopy was highly suggestive of HP.

Currently, the use of macrolides in various chronic inflammatory diseases has increased significantly. Clinical improvements associated to the administration of macrolides have been observed in diseases such as, cystic fibrosis, asthma, and bronchiectasis.

Peri-operative atelectasis, in particular, affects 90% of surgical patients and its effects can be prolonged, due to changes in respiratory mechanics, pulmonary circulation and hypoxaemia. Alveolar collapse is caused by certain predisposing factors, mainly by compression and absorption mechanisms. To prevent or treat these atelectasis several therapeutic strategies have been proposed, such as alveolar recruitment manoeuvres, which has become popular in the last few years. Its application in patients with alveolar collapse, but without a previous significant acute lung lesion, has some special features, therefore its use is not free of uncertainties and complications.

She was diagnosed with casual pulmonary infiltrates that had histological changes compatible with organizing pneumonia. The pulmonary infiltrates disappeared on withdrawing trastuzumab treatment. Due to the increasing use of biological therapies in different medical areas, we believe it is of interest to report this pulmonary involvement attributed to the monoclonal antibody trastuzumab.

Its incidence ranges from 9% to 67% of patients on mechanical ventilation. Risk factors are multiple and are associated with prolonged stays in hospital and intensive care units. Additional costs for each episode of VAP range from 9,000 euro to 31,000 euro. Thus, its prevention should be considered as a priority. This prevention could decrease associated morbidity, mortality, costs, and increase patient safety.

The use of tobacco products other than cigarettes and even medicinal nicotine (known as nicotine replacement therapy (NRT)) has been proposed as a risk reduction strategy. Among the tobacco products with less individual risk than cigarettes would be any type of tobacco without smoke (smokeless) with a low content in nitrosamines and modified cigarettes; both forms included under the PREP (Potentially Reduced Exposure Products) concept.

TLR are a family of type 1 transmembrane proteins, responsible for recognizing molecular patterns associated with pathogens (PAMP, pathogen-associated molecular patterns), and expressed by a broad spectrum of infectious agents. This recognition leads to quick production of cytokines and chemokines which provides a long-lasting adaptive response to the pathogen.

Radiography, ventilation-perfusion scintigraphy, and a bone marrow biopsy confirmed that the tumor was not metastatic. The patient was started on a chemotherapy regimen of vincristine, actinomycin, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, ifosfamide, and etoposide and responded well.

Individuals with COPD have a 4.5-fold greater risk of developing heart failure than those without. The sensitivity and specificity of clinical judgment in the diagnosis of heart failure in patients with COPD can be enhanced by biological markers such as B-type natriuretic peptide and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide. Correct interpretation of imaging results (mainly echocardiographic findings) and lung function tests can also help establish the co-occurrence of both conditions.

However, they have failed in the overall improvement in the management of asthma, the final objective that they are meant to achieve. Today, almost 20 years after they appeared, the majority of asthmatic patients are still inadequately controlled, partly due to lack of follow up by doctors and the rest of health care staff who have to look after them. This lack of follow up of these recommendations is probably associated with a lack of well structured planning in their circulation and implementation.

We have selected the publication by Martínez-Olondrins et al on the mediastinal staging of bronchogenic carcinoma by <<blind>> transbronchial needle aspiration to highlight the role of this simple, safe and cost-effective technique at a time when aspiration by ultrasound-guided bronchoscopy is profiled as an alternative to staging by mediastinoscopy. Besides its usefulness in the study of lymph nodes, transbronchial needle aspiration increases the overall performance of bronchoscopy by 20%, which means that it should be con...

Several studies have been published throughout 2008 that have contributed to improve these two aspects a little. As regards the pathogenesis, mutations in BMPR2 continue gaining points as fundamental factors in the development of the disease. It has been shown that patients who carry any of them have a more rapid and severe clinical course. There is a relationship between the BMPR2 pathway and inflammation of the pulmonary vascular tree. A new anti-endothelin drug, ambrisentan, has also appeared on the scene this year. With an efficacy comparable to other drugs of its group, the secondary effects appear to be a lot less. An impor...

When combined, they allow for nearly complete mediastinal staging in lung cancer. Each technique has inherent strengths and weaknesses, but when used simultaneously they become far more powerful, to the extent that mediastinoscopy -a more expensive and invasive procedure- is expected to decline in use as the application of endoscopic and endobronchial ultrasound becomes more widespread. The incorporation of these ultrasound techniques has been shown to lead to fewer thoracotomies, benefiting patients and also society, given that costs are thereby reduced. We reflect on recent developments in the field, discuss current debates, and propose a view of what the future holds in store. P...

This notion however neglects the fact that nonlinear relationships may be present. To better define the disease, some authors therefore suggest that we should think in terms of complex systems with a scale-free topology. The idea of multiple inflammatory hits proposed by the group of Pavord is in its broadest sense a further contribution to this line of thought. According to this theory, the coexistence of additional inflammatory stimuli, which may or may not be localized to the lungs, are responsible for deteriorating lung function. The effects of these stimuli may be additive or act...

This reinforces our hypothesis that some local cytokines take part in the repair of respiratory muscles in patients with COPD.

Most of the recently introduced treatments have failed to improve the prognosis of patients with ALI or ARDS or to reduce mortality. Several studies have shown improved oxygenation in the prone position during mechanical ventilation in patients with ARDS. However, current evidence strongly suggests that placing ARDS patients in prone position does not improve survival or reduce the duration of mechanical ventilation. Therefore, though in clinical practice this position may improve refractory hypoxemia in patients with ARDS, there is no evidence to support its systematic use.

A 54-year-old woman with dyspnea, cough, chest pain, and fever was seen in the emergency room. A chest radiograph revealed interstitial infiltrates and blood tests showed leukocytosis with neutrophilia and severe hypoxemia. A diagnosis of HP was made by a combination of clinical, radiologic, physiologic, and immunologic studies. Trichoderma viride was isolated in cultures of water samples from an ultrasonic humidifier installed in the patient's home a year earlier. Precipitating immunoglobulin G antibodies to T viride were detected in the patient's serum by enzyme-linked immunos...

Follow-up computed tomography revealed a pulmonary nodule that was classified as metastatic. The patient was referred to our thoracic surgery department, where the nodule was resected. The pathology confirmed that the nodule was neoplastic, and histologic and immunohistochemical examination showed the presence of colorectal metastasis and lung adenocarcinoma. Evidence of metastasis was also found in 2 of the lymph nodes analyzed, 1 with features identical to the primary pulmonary adenocarcinoma, and 1 with features identical to the colorectal metastasis.
