They can include Alzheimer's disease, atherosclerosis, asthma, Male Pattern Baldness or Androgenic alopecia, cancer, chronic liver disease or cirrhosis, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, metabolic syndrome, Crohn's disease nephritis or chronic renal failure, osteoporosis, stroke, depression obesity and STI ( sexual transmitted infections )

Barotrauma — Pulmonary barotrauma is a well-known complication of positive pressure mechanical ventilation.

Pulmonary plethysmographs are commonly used to measure the functional residual capacity ( FRC ) of the lungs — the volume in the lungs when the muscles of respiration are relaxed — and total lung capacity.

* Pulmonary contusion, i. e., high-energy trauma

A second conference in 1998 at Évian-les-Bains also addressed the causes of secondary PH ( i. e. those due to other medical conditions ), and in 2003, the 3rd World Symposium on Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension was convened in Venice to modify the classification based on new understandings of disease mechanisms.

Pulmonary valve not visible, leaflets of the tricuspid and aortic valves only partly visible.

; Pulmonary valve: Disorders of the pulmonary valve that separates the right ventricle and pulmonary artery.

:; Pulmonary regurgitation / pulmonary insufficiency: Deficiency of the pulmonary valve that permits regurgitation from the pulmonary artery into the right ventricle.

Pulmonary specialists have noted that playing the harmonica resembles the kind of exercise used to rehabilitate COPD patients such as using a PFLEX inspiratory muscle trainer or the inspiratory spirometer.

Pulmonary hypertension may be treated with epoprostenol, bosentan and possibly aerolized iloprost.

In January 1785 Darwin submitted a paper entitled " An Account of the Successful Use of Foxglove in Some Dropsies and in Pulmonary Consumption " to the College of Physicians in London ; it was presented by Darwin in March of that year.

Pulmonary arteries are the arteries of the pulmonary circulation, which is the portion of the cardiovascular system which carries deoxygenated blood away from the heart, to the lungs, and returns oxygenated blood back to the heart.

Pulmonary rehabilitation may be initiated as a treatment as a source for continuity of improvement after a hospital stay or as a therapeutic way to increase quality of life.

Pulmonary rehabilitation is intended to educate the patient, the family, and improve the overall quality of life and prognosis for the patient.

Pulmonary Rehabilitation involves therapies and evaluations by respiratory therapists, Occupational Therapists and Physical Therapists.

Pulmonary circulation was described by Renaldus Columbus, Andrea Cesalpino and Vesalius, before Harvey would provided a refined and complete description of the circulatory system.

If in the lungs, it is often called Chronic Pulmonary Edema.

Pulmonary DCS (" the chokes ") is very rare in divers and has been observed much less frequently in aviators since the introduction of oxygen pre-breathing protocols.

:* Pulmonary oedema occurs when the pressure in blood vessels in the lung is raised because of obstruction to remove blood via the pulmonary veins.

Pulmonary edema produces shortness of breath.

* Pulmonary contusion is a bruise of the lung tissue.

Pulmonary surfactants are also naturally secreted by type II cells of the lung alveoli in mammals.

* Pulmonary embolism is the result of a thromboembolic incident in the bloodvessels of the lungs and hinders the return of blood to the heart.

* Pulmonary stenosis occurs more frequently in Samoyeds in comparison with other breeds.

For the right heart this is the pulmonary vascular bed, creating Pulmonary Vascular Resistance ( PVR ), while for the systemic circulation this is the systemic vascular bed, creating Systemic Vascular Resistance ( SVR ).

For the right heart this is the pulmonary vascular bed, creating Pulmonary Vascular Resistance ( PVR ), while for the systemic circulation this is the systemic vascular bed, creating Systemic Vascular Resistance ( SVR ).

Pulmonary edema ( American English ), or oedema ( British English ; both words from the Greek ), is fluid accumulation in the air spaces and parenchyma of the lungs.

The differential diagnosis includes Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis ( IPF ), Hypersensitivity pneumonitis, sarcoidosis, and others.

* Pulmonary ( lungs ), characterised by difficulty in breathing and pain within the chest, occurring when breathing elevated pressures of oxygen for extended periods ;

** Pulmonary compliance ( or lung compliance ), change in lung volume for applied or dynamic pressure

* Pulmonary artery wedge pressure < 18 mmHg ( obtained by pulmonary artery catheterization ), if this information is available ; if unavailable, then lack of clinical evidence of left ventricular failure suffices

Pulmonary complications of silicosis also include Chronic Bronchitis and airflow limitation ( indistinguishable from that caused by smoking ), non-tuberculous Mycobacterium infection, fungal lung infection, compensatory emphysema, and pneumothorax.

Lower respiratory tract diseases such as Pneumonia, Asthma, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease ( COPD ), and Emphysema can result in contraction of the airways.

Pulmonary venous hypertension typically presents with shortness of breath while lying flat or sleeping ( orthopnea or paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea ), while pulmonary arterial hypertension ( PAH ) typically does not.

Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis ( abbreviated PAP ), is a rare lung disease in which abnormal accumulation of surfactant occurs within the alveoli, interfering with gas exchange.

TPR should not be confused with Pulmonary Vascular Resistance ( PVR ), which is the resistance in the pulmonary circulation.

His publications were very numerous including Lectures on Clinical Medicine ( 1850 – 1856 ), which in second and subsequent editions were called Clinical Lectures on the Principles and Practice of Medicine, and were translated into various languages, including Russian and Hindi ; Leucocythaemia ( 1852 ), the first recorded cure of which was published by him in 1845 ; Outlines of Physiology ( 1858 ), reprinted from the 8th edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica, Pathology and Treatment of Pulmonary Tuberculosis ( 1853 ); Textbook of Physiology ( 1871 – 1872 ).
