"Humans can’t live without lungs. And yet for 48 hours, in a surgical suite at Northwestern University, a 33-year-old man lived with an empty cavity in his chest where his lungs used to be."

"A custom built artificial lung system kept a patient alive long enough to enable a double lung transplant. The surgery involved temporarily replacing the patient's entire pulmonary system with a synthetic surrogate. The patient lived for two days without #lungs. They received donor lungs after 48 hours, when their body was no longer suffering from #sepsis. The patient has returned to a normal, independent life with excellent lung function."

What Extreme Pressure Does to the Lungs

Khi trời rét, 3 bộ phận cơ thể dễ gặp nguy hiểm nhất là tim, não và phổi – đặc biệt ở người cao tuổi và người có bệnh nền. Lạnh giá làm co mạch máu, tăng huyết áp, gây áp lực lên tim, làm tăng nguy cơ nhồi máu cơ tim và đột quỵ. Phổi cũng dễ bị ảnh hưởng do không khí lạnh kích thích đường hô hấp, làm trầm trọng thêm các bệnh như hen suyễn, COPD. Cần giữ ấm cơ thể, tránh ra ngoài lúc trời quá lạnh, đặc biệt vào sáng sớm và đêm khuya.

🍞💨 Researchers at #Pusan National University found toasters, air fryers, and hair dryers emit ultrafine particles containing heavy metals like copper and titanium that settle in the alveolar region of #lungs.

Pop-up toasters were the worst offenders, emitting 1.73 trillion particles per minute, with #children facing higher risks due to smaller airways.

St. Luke’s – Global City launches a dedicated inhaler clinic to enhance pulmonary care

St. Luke’s Medical Center is proud to announce the launch of its Inhaler Clinic Service in Global City, designed to optimize the care of patients with pulmonary disorders such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

The clinic aims to address a critical gap in respiratory care, including proper inhaler techniques.

Inhaler therapy remains the cornerstone of treatment for many pulmonary conditions. However, studies show that up to 94 percent of patients do not use their inhalers correctly, leading to poor symptom control, frequent exacerbations, and reduced quality of life.

https://twitter.com/tbcnewsph/status/1963819060485050703

Recognizing this, St. Luke’s has established a first-of-its-kind clinic focused on ensuring patients receive not only the proper medication but also the correct technique and support. It also offers coaching on the use and care of nebulizers.

The Inhaler Clinic has a multidisciplinary core team consisting of pulmonologists and respiratory therapists, and is built around four key goals:

● Assess and teach correct inhaler technique to ensure proper medication delivery and better disease control.

● Monitor adherence and treatment outcomes

Regular follow-ups allow the team to evaluate how well patients are using their prescribed therapies and to adjust management plans based on measurable progress.

● Identify and solve device-related problems

The clinic helps resolve issues such as improper device selection, technique errors, or device mismatch such as elderly patients, patients with arthritis, tremors or weakness, etc., supporting more personalized care.

● Empower patients and caregivers through education

Through structured teaching sessions, the clinic equips patients and families with the knowledge and confidence needed to manage respiratory conditions effectively at home.

By focusing on proper device use, personalized guidance, and continuous monitoring, the Inhaler Clinic aims to deliver tangible improvements that matter most to patients:

● Fewer asthma and COPD attacks

● Better medication absorption

● Reduced emergency room visits and hospitalizations

● Improved overall quality of life

Who should be referred to the Inhaler Clinic

Referral to the Inhaler Clinic is recommended for patients who may benefit from focused inhaler education and monitoring, including:

● Newly diagnosed patients with prescribed inhalers

● Individuals with persistent uncontrolled asthma or COPD

● Patients demonstrating recurrent inhaler errors

● Those on complex inhaler regimens (multiple devices or dosing schedules)

● Patients with device mismatch, such as elderly patients with limited hand coordination

● Patients or families expressing confusion or uncertainty

● Patients discharged with new inhaler prescriptions

As the first dedicated inhaler clinic in the Philippines, St. Luke’s sets a new standard in pulmonary care, offering patients a unique, comprehensive service to help them breathe easier.

For more information on referring patients to the Inhaler Clinic, contact the St. Luke’s Product Information Hub at 0947-9930471 / 0998-5822276 / 0939-9161805 / 0928-5200239.

New Study Shows Lung Cancer Surveillance in the United States Misses Most Patients; Northwestern Medicine Investigators Urge Universal Age-based Screening
https://news.feinberg.northwestern.edu/2025/11/25/new-study-shows-lung-cancer-surveillance-in-the-united-states-misses-most-patients-northwestern-medicine-investigators-urge-universal-age-based-screening/

' The scan that takes less than 10 seconds and doesn’t need any intravenous dyes provides a complete picture of the chest cavity, creating a baseline image patients can keep for life. This approach also addresses critical gaps in preventive care, particularly for the growing number of patients experiencing lasting respiratory effects from COVID-19 and other environmental exposures.

“Nearly six years after the pandemic’s start, we’re seeing increasing numbers of patients with lung scarring and fibrosis from COVID-19, especially those who get reinfected with respiratory viruses,” said Dr. Bharat. “The damage compounds with each infection. Early detection through comprehensive screening can help us intervene before these conditions progress to requiring transplantation.” '
